Exactly. It's the opening game of the group stage; you rarely get thrillers. Mowbray and Lawrenson just sat there moaning for an hour and a half. Do you think Japan care? They're probably going crazy, and I thought they played very well. Most of these commentators' idea of 'excitement' is Chelsea hitting eight past the likes of Wigan.
Anyway nothing will ever be more tedious than this.....

Italy don't need to play like this though. They are a better side than Paraguay.
Had £10 @ 5/1 on first goal being a header. So not going to moan. First bet i've had up this World Cup.

Who was that with? Betfair?
Paraguay are a decent side though; they came third in the SA qualifying, one point behind Brazil.

Bet 365. They have loads of different markets. Had the same bet in the Dutch game but got stitched up because it came of Aggers back.
i've got 2-1 as well but with another bookie because they gave me 100% bonus on my deposit. You should use Betfair for correct scores though because you can trade them off before you get stung with a 94th minute goal.
*edit* wow, North Korea were amazing in that half. Their number nine is real quality too.

I am afraid Korea will lose, but Brazilia will have problems with other teams, for sure.

What a boring world cup so far, I liked the Germany-Aussies game
best (not only because I'm German and the German team won ).

Free £50 bet on bet-at-home. Put it on both Brazil and Korea to score in the 2nd half @ 7/1. Cash back lol. That little Korean is my favourite player of all time.
They played quite well, too.

That number nine was awesome. He could run with the ball, pass, and score. He's got to join a major club in Europe.

I thought they were quite a good side. A lot of them could look after the ball. One of the better games so far.

That muppet David Lammy who used to go out with June Sarpong just asked a question in PMQs about banning betting shops on the Seven Sisters Road because they might tempt working-class people in.
