[QUOTE="Prestwick, post: 154751"] Utter. Tripe. I shall stay on my high horse. I haven't forgotten my posts because I congratulated France on a superb victory, knocking the wheels off of an All Black juggernaught. You recognised nothing about all the effort that France put into a game which they almost won. Two completely different things. It has [i]everything[/i] to do with it. Deep down, you just can't stand the fact that we're through to the final and that your lads didn't step up when the time called for it. You had your chances first against France and then against Argentina. The blame for the (imaginary) faults that you put forward therefore lie squarely at the door of BOD, Stirling Mortlock and Richie McCaw. Now [i]you[/i] pay attention, because basically when I see... All I see is: It hasn't been raining on my parade that your team just didn't have the guts to rise to the challenge. It [i]does[/i] rain on [i]everyones[/i] parade when you just come out with silly little outbursts, saying that this tournament is now ruined and that the rugby so far in both England's Quarter Final and the Semi Final was dull and boring and that the Final will be more of the same. Tournaments are built around attrition, endurance and passion. That is what wins competitions. For some reason, England have suddenly developed big reserves of all three. Whether they have enough in the tank remains to be seen but to see South Africa almost implode against Fiji and be pushed hard against Argentina, they'll face a task as strong as that against an England who suddenly seem to rather like closing games out. And you said you didn't belittle France with your stupid screaming and stomping? Care to revise that statement? Again. Absolute tripe. Don't you [i]dare[/i] be lazy and play the victim card here with me sonny jim otherwise I'll roast your balls on a stick and feed them back to you with a side mis-mashed Elizabeithan English rammed up your jacksy. I have no idea how I'm actually going to [i]do[/i] that but there you go, c'est la guerre. It was actually an abstract way of saying "stop being a miserable turd and congratulate both sides on a match well fought." Close mate but no cigar. [b][color=#3333ff] [/color][/b] [/QUOTE]
