Minute of silence Dedicated to the victims of the London terrorist attack before match Australia - Saudi Arabia  :mumble:

 

 

Firstly I don't really know why there is the need for a minute silence for a match in Australia (I get it for Western Europe, but not really for the rest of the world, it's not like they have a minute of silence for every terrorist attack in the Middle East).

 

Secondly, you must be a major asshat if you're doing this in a minute of silence. It's sad to see their (Dutch) coach Bert van Marwijk apparently couldn't get it in their heads to shut up and stand there for one minute.

Sadly this might have not been their decision - according to our media the Saudi FA "absolutely prohibited"the players from this gesture before the game - and in country like Saudi I would not be surprised if the decision was made by more important figure.Stil this shows what a great "ally"saudis are in regards to terror :wall:

Fantastic reason to just ignore the whole thing.

    • Here, the Masters is on national TV.  Are major golf tourneys in the USA shown in other places?   (I work at a private school that's just about an 80-minute drive from Augusta.  Many of my students are able to go watch the tournament in person.  I've never paid attention to golf until this year...it's a beautiful course!)

    • Orban had one big plus- he built modern football stadiums in Hun and several modern swimming pools in Budapest. Maybe we should hire him as our sports minister and infrastructure
    • Btw. I once read that Denmark has the best democracy in the world - in the sense that it has the most equal system, unlike, for example, North Korea or Eritrea on the other side of the political ocean.
    • This is Tisza's only chance, because without a constitutional majority, Orbán would return for several years. Hopefully, Tisza wins that majority.
    • Seems like a supermajority for Magyar
    • so, one of the most boring world cup stages ever has ended    if it wasn't for  and , winning 1 gold medal each, a  sweep would have come true, as they won all the remaining 8 gold medals (and a bunch of silver and bronze, too)    while some sports are brcoming more and more global, it looks that (rifle and pistol) shooting is going the other way round, it's becoming less and less global, with just 1 or 2 dominating Countries and a few others filling the (minor) gaps here and there, with always less Nations capable to win medals (only 12, out of 10 competitions) and even make the final    now the Rifle and Pistol world cup takes a break to allow most Continental championships to take place between the end of April and May.   It will be back in  Munich in the last week of May.   In the meantime, the Shotgun specialists will be on stage from May 2nd through May, 11th in  Almaty.
    • Orban is finished. I hope Meloni doesn't do him asylum in Italy
