What are the (UK) kick off times?
"What is a club in any case? Not the buildings or the directors or the people who are paid to represent it. It's not the television contracts, get out clauses or the marketing departments or executive boxes. It's the noise, the passion, the feeling of belonging, the pride in your city''

Sir Bobby Robson, 1933-2009

"Following Newcastle is a birthright, a religion, a warm-up before the knees-up of a night out. On the Geordie check-list of must-do activities, watching the Toon ranks alongside breathing."

Henry Winter, Daily Telegraph, 24th October 2006

Vast majority of games in the tournament kick off between 4.00pm and 7.00pm, with a few exceptions. Strangely Senegal's opening fixture kicks off at 9pm our time, so will finish near midnight there.

Ivory Coast and Senegal out first round please...

Pretty much this  :thup:

Frankly tho, i think Ivory Coast will win it definitely the most balanced squad at the tournament.

Senegal vs Ivory Coast final hopefully - we may get at least one back in a Newcastle shirt by mid-February.

Although who would bet against a Tiote / Ba double leg-breaker tackle if that match happened.  s***!

I Hate It Here.  That's Why I Keep Coming Back.

Lets hope Senegal are the surprise shock and get knocked out in the group stages.

Aye definately, guess its too much to ask that Ba & Tiote dont even get a kick as well, keep them nice and fresh and desperate to play when they get home.

Morocco will win this. They have a squad full of classy individual players. If they play like a team they can make it to the final.
Allons enfants de la Patrie, Le jour de gloire est arrivé ! Contre nous de la tyrannie, L’étendard sanglant est levé, Entendez-vous dans les campagnes, Mugir ces féroces soldats ? Ils viennent jusque dans vos bras, Égorger vos fils, vos compagnes ! Aux armes, citoyens, Formez vos bataillons, Marchons, marchons ! Qu’un sang impur, Abreuve nos sillons ! Que veut cette horde d’esclaves, De traîtres, de rois conjurés ? Pour qui ces ignobles entraves, Ces fers dès longtemps préparés ? Français, pour nous, ah ! quel outrage ! Quels transports il doit exciter ! C’est nous qu’on ose méditer, De rendre à l’antique esclavage !

Any reason why, OM?
Before that why didn't the Wigan fans just walk the the Stewart's, the Stewart's only went up to the touchline, their was a big gap between the end of the Stewart's and the stand they could have walked through.

Unfortunately the Ivory Cost and Senegal are the favorites (being selfish now). For me. the Ivory Cost will be cruise IF they could have a goalkeeper that actually could save footballs.

I've been to Morocco loads of times. Had a Moroccan girlfriend for several years. Did a fair bit of work there and travelled around a lot. Love the place, basically. And as it's the only country in Africa I have any connection with, I tend to root for them in football.

Ivory Coast only conceded 4 goals in the their qualification group.

They have a new goalkeeper now - Daniel Yeboah, recently signed for Dijon in Ligue 1. But I think Boubacar "Copa" Barry will start for them. Actually not that bad.

Very much this but there will much worse than him there which is even better.

Can remember a couple of years ago when some joker (possibly Algeria) tried to do a forward roll as part of their save.

This thread reminded me that Spurs signed that Coulibaly kid, who blitzed the under-17s World Cup not long ago. Will be interesting to see how he develops.

He was in either this thread or another one talking about it. He seemed less than enthused by this competition, claiming that the key objective for players was to not contract malaria.
Got a vibrtating love egg stuck in wor lass last night. The string snapped to get it out. It was remote control so I kept turning it on, then i realised she was nearly crying. Had to fish it out. Never mind.

I looked the devil in the eye, went home and jerked off. That's standard procedure.

Said quote Neil was talking about:

I don't care about this mickey mouse competition, I just want our players to come back quickly and uninjured. Hopefully none of them contract malaria or Dengue.
