World cup teams are generally kept away from their wives and loved ones.
All other religions except the catholics are tugging themselves into a stupor right up until kick off.
The Catholics use all this pent up energy and testosterone and channel it into winning the world cup.
I heared that Wayne Rooney has been known to have up to 2 w***s at half time which explains his pathetic world cup performances.

This is about football ability and has no relation to religion nor should it have and religious beliefs shoukd be kept out of the World Cup and all sport.

How so? At around 4m people, they are one of the smallest nations to have qualified, and have done so on 3 of the last 6 occasions. Pretty successful in comparative terms?

Good point, although they have utilised the diaspora quite well!.. Unlike the other catholic countries mentioned it's not the national sport in Ireland either

What inspired your user name (yes, I do know where it comes from).

GC is one of my favourite (if not THE favourite) literary characters, so when I had to come up with a username for an English forum that was the first thing that came to my mind.

As for the thread, I was just trying to stir things a little bit on a Friday morning. :) Very decent replies though, not an easy forum to fish on.

It's a THUNDERBOX of a thread.

With a name like Rooney, and being brought up in Liverpool, I'd have thought there must be a more than even chance that he is from a Catholic family anyway.

As, quite possibly, are Gary Cahill (eligible to play for Ireland if he hadn't chosen England) and Phil Jagielka (could have played for Poland).

This has absolutely nothing to do with religion. If you need an explanation why, God help you!

Catholics learn to concentrate, despite distractions, from an early age. This helps when you're plays football under immense pressure, and surrounded by the opposition. Being able to perform a 'Cruyff turn', beat two defenders and play a killer ball onto the head of your centre-forward is a doddle after spending years trying to remember when to ring a bell while your underwear is wet.
