Lucas Neill & Posh Spice?

Posh Spice is a slapper
She likes to cop a feel
and when she's shagging Beckham
She thinks of LUCAS NEILL!

Yes even Posh Spice loves Lucas Neill, it is a craze that is sweeping the globe.

Sorry I digress, not a bad little chant though, I am sure you will admit, 22 more to go Round Ball Footy fans, one for each squad member. Go and get creative and put them in the comment section in this post.

Anyway 4 teams left, tonight the mighty battle for third and fourth should be a cracker! Portugal Vs the host nation Germany. Who will win? Does it really matter? Probably not, but at least it is one more chance to watch a cracking game of Round Ball Footy before what promises to be a less than inspiring final.

Dearest Round Ball Footy World Cup,

O, Round Ball Footy World Cup, where did it all go wrong? We were so good together.



Sure, we didn't always get along: there were times when we just couldn't figure out why you wanted to hurt us the way you did. And those awful men you hung around with really had it in for us.

Other times, it seemed just like a fairytale: you were coy at first, teasing us with rejection, until we finally scored ... once, twice, three glorious times!

Those were wonderful moments we had together – such giddy highs.

Now it seems that you've drawn apart, let us down, and now we're going our own separate ways.

O, Round Ball Footy World Cup, we can't help but feel that:

'You've lost that loving feeling; oh, that loving feeling; you've lost that loving feeling; now we're gone, gone, gone ... and we can't go on...

...Whoa-whoa-woah.'

How could you have left us for those slutty Italians and sleazy French?

Les Bleus Vs The Azzurri

Yes its true, everyone's worst nightmare has come true. We are going to have to put up with either the French or Italians telling us that they are world champions, for four years! Surely we could have a replay of just the second round starting with that match against those filthy dirty.....

So folks here we are Italy Vs France and as the Highlander so famously said "there can only be one". Wouldn't it be great to see these two old foes take to the field wielding swords and trying to chop each others heads off, couldn't fake that could you Grosso? What am I saying? If you can get that damn penalty against Australia you can do anything!

Unless these two teams take to the field with razor sharp swords and the desire for blood, I am predicting this game to be a dour affair. I am predicting 3-all, Dour?....... dour? I hear you say "6 goals - surely it can't be boring". Well yes folks 6 penalties: 3 to Grosso and 3 to Henry that diving Frenchman. Followed by even more penalties in the Penalty Shootout.

Final winner? Well the last team to have someone with their head left attached to their body of course.

There can be only one.......

Noooooooooooooooooo!

Yes it's true. The Azzuri,the team no one wanted to make the final has qualified.

I cannot fucking believe it! I wish it wasn't true.

And that bloody Grosso has done it again! Yes, the same Grosso who so famously dived across Aussie Superhero Lucas Neill to win his dirty team a penalty in the only way they know how, by cheating. That dirty cheat Grosso scored the decisive goal in the 118th minute, the ball was passed out to him and in his attempt to fling himself across the box to win another bodgy penalty, he accidently got his foot to the ball and it was in. Goodbye Germany.

Oh yeah another goal was scored but who cares. Final score: 2-o to Italy.

I can't believe I actually am going to have to sit through another bloody Italy game........

Deutschland Uber Alles

Go you good things in the Casper the Friendly Ghost outfits. (Just don't trip over your jerseys!)

Look at all of your well-wishers and supporters. You couldn't possible let them down, could you?







Now go smash that dirty, dirty cheating Italy.

Just in case you forgot...

Now that we've all calmed down, we can look back objectively upon the debacle of a penalty that Italy were awarded against the gallant Socceroos.

I think Timmy's summed it up nicely.

Well said.

Dirty Italy at it again

Once again, the Azzurri (‘dirty blues’) have managed to influence a game by bending the rules – let’s face it: cheating. Having already committed the heinous crime of shamelessly diving against our ‘Fair-Go’ Socceroos, the Italian media are now in on the shenanigans.

Star German midfielder, Torsten Frings, has been cruelly punished by FIFA after Sky Italia dobbed him in. Torsty was all set to play in tomorrow’s semi against the dirty Italians, until Sky Italia found footage of a nice left hook by Frings against an aggro Argentinian and handed it into Sepp’s boys.


The sign reads: ‘We’ve cheated before, and we’re only getting better at it.'

That’s why Round Ball Footy declares Sky Italia and the Italy team joint winners of the RBF Dirtiest Team-Effort Award.

(Following Josip Simunic’s previous award of Round Ball Footy Dirtiest Solo-Effort Award. Don’t worry, you can keep that trophy, Josie.)

Congratulations, you dirty bastards, you’ve managed to overshadow the match-fixing scandal that half the Italian World Cup team is involved in … by sinking even lower.


Italy, once again, you are a disgrace. Good luck to those Germans in the Casper the Friendly Ghosts outfits (they of the over-sized team jerseys).
