Seriously, if people rely on a piece of fish, they need to be taken to some random mental clinic and undergo a lobotomy.

Octopi are not fish. They're mollusca, which is veeeeeeeeeeeeeery different. It's like saying a spider's a mammal.

I know, but Paul's not a fortune-teller either.

===================================

No I will not!  I will carefully consider 'socball'.  But no promises. ;)

i cant understand the popular vuvuzela, i call it the n***r trumpet and honest to that I dont even know why they let it in the stadiom, cant they just seize them at the ticket gate

still no version of WWRY on a vuvuzuela yet...

Dont worry.

That will come.Same as We Are The Champions will come too

Give James Corden and Diddy Rascal time and they will sample the sound of the vuvuzela and then they will come up with a version of Champions and Rock You........

^I wouldnt put it past them :-[

good luck to the Hollish and the Spainish tonight,its been a good but not great tournament but i shall be sad to see it finish,although there will be a new name on the trophy.
i will also point out that i have watched all 63 games so far [with 1 to go] and have predicted the correct winner in just one game so no need to call the media for my predictions..

You need to go to Paul for lessons for the next World Cup, provided he is still around. :-)

I'm not a fan of the Netherlands (they beat my favourite Slovakia and my second-least-favourite Brazil so that's more or less balanced) but I do prefer them over Spain, so I hope they win.

Perhaps, but he's been right every time this tournament, and in Euro 2008 he only got the final wrong. Criticise the people (such as myself) who listen to him, but he has still been more accurate than most human experts.

Don't listen to him GrateFulFan. I like the game alot, but I will never call it football, only soccer. To me, there is only one football and that is Australian Football. I will always refer to The Beautiful Game as the same word used to name Africa's biggest stadium; Soccer City. European/South American soccer fans might prefer than I call it football, in which case, they should blame the English for coming up with the term soccer. Either way, it will always be soccer to me. :p

I hope they succeed. It would be a tragedy if he was assassinated by some mad German/Argentine fan. :D
