I have never seen such disgraceful antics as those from the Panama team in the first half - as they were punished by a 5-0 pounding from a superb England team.

Perhaps it's their silly haircuts!!!

Dear B3l are you denying them the right to express themselves thro haircuts and wrestling to give away penalties , if the two don't go hand in hand the score could well have been 3-0 …. I wouldn't look a gifthorse like them in the mouth. Well played England in the face of adversity
BTW im not English

I'm waiting for the international Tiddlywinks playoffs in Cambridgeshire.

The greatest game in the world: Tiddlywinks!

Of course, England players have never been guilty of sporting daft barnets (I'll leave you to find your own examples...)! Panama were not only rubbish, they were stupid. It's a nice scoreline, and you can only beat what's in front of you, but I wouldn't draw any conclusions from today. That's probably the worst performance of the WC so far (the previous No.1 being the Saudi's in the opening match). Belgium ought to be more informative except that, with both of us already through, I wonder how genuine a game we will get?

To quote Alf Ramsey in 1966
"England will win the world cup"
Not sure but they will go a long way into the tournament and there are no teams so far they should be frightened off

How would I spot a spoilt booby?

Yes, I too am curious about the Spoilt Booby. Is it native to the UK or does it come from some more exotic locale such as Mozambique or the Galapagos Islands?

From the Encyclopædia Britannica:

“Booby, any of six or seven species of large tropical seabirds constituting the family Sulidae (order Pelecaniformes or Suliformes). They vary in length from about 65 to 85 cm (25–35 inches). The red-footed booby (Sula sula) and the masked, or blue-faced, booby (S. dactylatra) are wide-ranging in the Atlantic, Pacific, and Indian oceans. The blue-footed booby (S. nebouxii) occurs in the Pacific from southern California to northern Peru and on the Galápagos Islands. Boobies’ bills are long, their bodies cigar-shaped, and their wings long, narrow, and angular. They fly high above the ocean looking for schools of fish and squid. When prey is sighted they plunge headlong into the water in a swift, vertical drop.”

Well, plunging headlong into the water would probably spoil their hairstyles.

Fascinating! They sound like quite entertaining birds, probably better to watch than the average soccer (football) game, all things considered.

When I were a lad, a boobie was a spoilt brat.

Well, that's the great thing about the English language. It's very flexible.

Eng-Bel match on TV was pre-empted by a story of a local shooter who killed five in the newsroom of a nearby newspaper. :^[
