Football ✅ Rugby ✅ In my world they are super powers

The darts world championships is definitely one of the best of the best events for me. I’m the opposite, I don’t watch alpine skiing

Darts of course

The PDC World Championships are just starting, one of my favourite events of the year! Christmas has officially begun

I hope you are actively planning on what thing to say and not say for the next day or two

Saudi Arabia beating Argentina is still the biggest surprise

Crooatiaaaaa For those who don’t know I got Croatia in the sweepstakes so they are my adopted team in this World Cup

Croatia

Croatia My sweepstakes team are still alive

It’s hard to know yet but I will begin with our 2 gold medalists from the Tokyo Olympics. 1. ROWING - Men’s Lightweight Double Sculls (Paul O’Donovan and Fintan McCarthy) 2. BOXING - Women’s Lightweight (Kellie Harrington) Then if I had to choose 3 more it would be: 3. ARTISTIC GYMNASTICS - Men’s Pommel Horse (Rhys McClenaghan) 4. ROWING - Men’s Four (really young crew who came 8th at this year’s World Championships. I’m excited to see what progress they can make. 5. SWIMMING - Men’s 800m Freestyle (Daniel Wiffen) I took a punt with Daniel Wiffen as he is making steady improvements and with one more jump he could be a medal contender and could even surprise us all in Paris. There are many others in the mix in rowing and boxing but right now it’s impossible to predict which are most likely. In rowing I went for the men’s four due to their youth and their big jump already this year. I could have chosen the women’s four due to experience and also the fact there will be huge competition for that boat. Also the women’s lightweight double and women’s double both won bronze at this year’s world championships and are on an upward trajectory. Also Rory McIlroy will surely be a contender in men’s golf if he is on the start line. But golf is too unpredictable and it’s more likely he won’t win gold than the others on my list so that’s why he is not on my list.

He’s got a time machine as we established before

About the only fight left in this match, it seems to have gone dead.

Serbia has been so poor in the second half. Expected more of a fight from them.

For me it wasn’t a clear penalty at all. Cavani was looking for it and made the contact happen. Happy it wasn’t given.

Ireland are at the World Cup after all. Here’s an Irish fan interrupting an interview by l’Equipe with a French fan

He’s been fantastic

We just won 0-1 against Malta 2 weeks ago… the tide is turning

Let’s make a pact that Slovakia and Ireland make it to the next World Cup. In a totally unrelated question, do you have much €€€ in the bank?

Poland can count their blessings they qualified. I’m glad though the tie wasn’t broken on the fair play rule.

Irish commentator saying it’s all over now that Saudi Arabia score… Mexico still only need one goal

7 minutes additional time for Mexico to grab the decisive goal!

Irish commentator just realising now that the group could be decided on yellow cards…. he’s more sleepy than these Polish forwards

Seems like he time travelled from representing Iceland at Eurovision in 1997:

Christine McVie from Fleetwood Mac passed away. RIP

25 nations left with a chance to win the World Cup
