Vielleicht, aber ist wahr dass sie so unartig wie sie klug sind, haben Argentina gewaehlt und freuen ihnen fuer meine Enttauschung. Meine Traener schmecken den Katzen sehr gut wahrscheinlich.

Vielleicht kamen sie dann um dich zu troesten [;)]

oder sie dachten das waere die chance um "treats" zu bekommen...wenn die chefin ein bisschen enttaeuscht ist...




LadyEllen -> RE: 2010 Football World Cup. (6/27/2010 3:03:52 PM)

Die Chefin bei mir ist sehr sorgfaltig nie enttauescht zu sein. Ihre Name ist Pepper und sie ist 3 Jahre alt; "Close friends get to call her Pepsi" wenn Du "Top Cat" gesehen hast?

Und es gibt keine Treats hier - hier ist so etwas als "Room Service" bekannt.

PeanutTigerinBox -> RE: 2010 Football World Cup. (6/27/2010 3:37:38 PM)

Ich verstehe...room service...vielleicht sollte ich dann summer und ihre jungen zu Dir bringen, da moege sie evtl mehr abbekommen [;)]

hier treats are treats...und es war harte arbeite "meine" pepper etwas von ihrer sucht runterzubekommen zu bestimmten katzenwuerste die es in asda und morrisons gibt da das zu sehr ins geld ging (fand guenstigere loesung in tesco mit home delivery, dort bekomme ich 10 fuer den preis was ich zuvor fuer 6 bezahlte).

und bislang habe ich nicht top cat gesehen...muss ich wohl mal nachholen...jetzt da der uni stress fast vorbei ist [:)]




LadyEllen -> RE: 2010 Football World Cup. (6/27/2010 3:52:34 PM)

War gleich hier. Ich finde aber dass die Treats bei Tesco billiger und besser beliebt von den Katzen sind als die ehemalige nun dass sie daran gewohnt worden sind. Ehemalig kaufte ich die Sticks (6/Paket = £1-00) und das war OK wann die Hotel nur ein paar Gaester hatten. Heute, mit 15, muess ich besser kaufen und fuer wenig als £1-00 sind die Tesco Treats rund 60/Paket. Auch kleiner natuerlich aber so kann man die besser austeilen.

PeanutTigerinBox -> RE: 2010 Football World Cup. (6/27/2010 4:11:37 PM)

60/paket??? Ich kenne nur 10 pro paket...aber stimme zu...mit mehr katzen muss man dann doch besser mit dem budget haushalten...mit den vorherigen treats lag mir pepper dauernd in den ohren...mit den neuen gibt es nicht allzuviel suechtiges betteln...was mich dann wundert ob in der ersten packung etwas war was sie suechtiger hielt als das was ich jetzt verwende...wie dem auch sei, sie wurde ruhiger und das ist was zaehlt da mir ihr permanentes betteln doch etwas auf den keks ging...meine anderen 3 sind da nicht so extrem wie sie...zum glueck...

The thing is with this....

It's our fuckin' game....and we gave it to the world....and there's more people (per head) in this country who watch football than any other country in the world.....we have third division teams that get bigger crowds than Juventus....England are the best followed team in the world....with a ridiculous amount of fans travelling to the end of the earth to watch the team......and yet...

We keep getting beat by these foreigners....still.......these pretenders....these Jonny-come-latelys who latch on to our game......

I don't think anyone abroad could possibly get a sense of the utter despair that is getting hold of the nation at this point....

It's not that it's the Germans....in fact by and large....bar the piss taking we actually quite like the Germans....it's more to do with England falling well short yet again.....and if there's any justice in this world they should have their pay cancelled for a year...because that performance.....and the group stages......was shocking...absolutely shocking.....so shocking they looked like a Sunday pub team....

And the goal....well.....you know what...it's done us a favour...because it's about time that England faced up to the fact they're shite....over paid and over rated.....there's something rotten in the English system because we were all over the place at times and that ain't good enough.....



I feel for you...I remember how our Canadian friends lamented hockey when the Russians beat them...and it was not fun when the US lost at men’s basketball in the Olympics... But such is life nothing remains the same... you were once a world power as well...we were an economic power at one time... things change. We die and the world ends.

Do you mind? If you hadnt noticed, we were discussing cats until you so rudely hijacked the thread to talk about football of all things; why ever would you think anyone wanted that subject brought up again?

Oh poor Darling!

Burninglash -> RE: 2010 Football World Cup. (6/28/2010 11:06:28 AM)

England choke with all the pressure of expectations from home supporters. South Africa do the same in the Cricket world cup and New Zealand do it in the rugby world cup. Nothing wrong with the team on paper or even on current form .. that is untill they get to a world cup. I feel your pain England supporters, it sucks to "know" you are the best team in the world only to find out you know nothing. :(

So good are Germany this world cup???? and Argentina ????




Burninglash -> RE: 2010 Football World Cup. (6/28/2010 11:09:02 AM)

PS to the Germans visiting SA if you are in the mood to spank some English ass all over again .. join us at the Kinky National party on Friday in Johannesburg. I am certain we can find some English massochists to play with :D

Well, one of the benefits I read on a german homepage (before the game) was that the boys in the german team have fewer games to play throughout the year than the british boys and therefore are likely to be fitter...and considering that my local club I used to support back home always dropped down into second league for one year in the years where they also took part in the uefa cup I could understand their view, as it puts additional demand onto their fitness to compete so many times...maybe england should send out less known players next time [:D]

Ahhhh credit where it's due....you're gracious winners....a few German fans on the radio today...."well....you know...we vere (yeah I know.....unimaginative German comedy accent) expecting great things from England...they're great players you know....but they're not a team....they vere a collection of individuals".....

The Scots and the Welsh wouldn't be so generous.....in fact they'll still be laughing their heads off now......and celebrating like their own team had won the world cup.....

But....on the plus side....is there a plus side here? I'm not seeing one.

Ah god.....why did it have to be the Germans? Brazil would have been acceptable.....but not the Germans....dear lord....do you know Sanrda....you didn't beat us in a game of football until 1970?.....1970 eh...and even then our keeper had been poisoned the night before the game and in the words of 'Der Kaiser' you were very lucky to win that game.....but from there it's gone from bad to worse....

So......I'm supporting the Dutch from here....

The cold...hard..truth..is that England simply aren't good enough. Nothing to do with choking. All four of their goals came from basic schoolboy errors...at one point the whole back four had been sucked out to the touchline....which is just unbelievable...schoolboy stuff. If you can't retain possession....the absolute basics....then you can't possibly hope to compete in the latter stages of a tournament. And this isn't a good German team...England made them look good......they've got a lot of young lads in there...in a transation period...their own management felt this tournament was a feeler and the next one would be the one where they'd be competitive when those lads a few years older with a few years more experience behind them. It's nowhere near the team they had in 1990.

Brazil look like the winners from what I've seen....but would like to see the Dutch do well.

Actually...though needless to say I suppose [8|] I am more than pleased right now, that they lost against Germany and enjoy every debate on TV about "why the UK team lost". If our team loses the next round it wouldn't bother me as such, because as you say quite rightly...they are youngsters and by far not where the 1990 team was in regards to experience, and I think there will be higher expectations onto them during the next 2 world cups, so if they go home after the next game it would be absolutely ok for me...however, losing against england...nah...that's not something I would wanna put up with as long as I live over here [:)]

"why the UK team lost".



The England team aren't good enough...simple as that...

People talk about these great individuals and world class players....but actually...

Our keeper plays for a team who went down....Upson for a team who just stayed up...Johnson had an average season at Liverpool...Terry's struggled at times....Barry has been average at City all season...Gerrard had a poor season by his standards.....Heskey scored 3 times for Villa all season....

So...this team of supposed world class players...is a myth. At the very best.....really pushing the boat out......we have 4 world class players....one of whom Gerrard was struggling for form coming into the tournament....another Rooney didn't turn up....Ashley Cole was probably the pick of the bunch but that's not saying much...

Just not good enough....and you were right in what you said in another post....England have done virtually nothing for 44 years....and that pattern tells a story.....there's something seriously wrong in our footballing culture...possibly placing too much emphasis on commitment and not enough on technique.....

that's at least how I interpret the comment which were taken as offensive when Beckenbauer criticised the british team at the beginning of the tournament. Of course we don't know what he said precisely and how he said it, but I think it is more likely that he critiqued the technique which he did observe at the english games as a constructive criticism instead of putting it down in a hostile manner.




NorthernGent -> RE: 2010 Football World Cup. (6/28/2010 4:04:29 PM)

It was blown out of proportion by the press. He was saying something like England have no plan B...when things don't go according to plan they struggle to improvise or come up with something different...so end up just launching it upfield....and of course he has been proven right.....

Everyone I know who watches football regularly knew we wouldn't do well.....knew the England players are overrated.....but we never expected such an abject performance........and the worst of it was....that in the last 10 minutes they just gave up and stopped battling.....lacking technique is forgiveable......lacking spirit is unforgiveable...and unbelievable...I've never seen an England team that didn't keep fighting til the last minute...and I think that more than anything has pissed off a lot of people...because it's a kick in teeth to the people who go through the turnstyles every week to pay their wages that they couldn't be arsed to put the effort in for the full 90 minutes. You'll be surprised at the strength of feeling with this...because when some of those players step on the field at the beginning of the coming season they'll get a hard time from the fans....and Rooney will be the number one target.
