Oh god I hate them. With their filthy garlic breath and their obsession with their dying language.

Allez Les Bleus. Pleased they made it to the WC Finals.

I like their country, their food, their footballers and the accents of pretty French girls speaking English :thumbsup:

Odds of France getting further than England in the World Cup?

Watched the whole game tonight. France deserved it. Ukraine got their tactics all wrong, especially in the first half.

I look forward to watching some of the group matches in the bar at our camp site in the Vendee.

Wonder if Ukraine threw that ?

To miss out on the biggest stage of all at a World Cup? No way. Unless they had guns held to their heads, no amount of money would be worth sacrificing a footballers career highlight to be part of the magical 32 teams competing in Brazil next summer.

Just seen one of the French goals, he was only 5 yards offside. French seem to ride their luck a bit in these play off games, nothing dodgy of course.

It did cross my mind.

Blatter and Platini could get together and do a deal for Ukraine to host the World Cup ? Perhaps in the winter when it's minus whatever degrees?

To be fair, they had a perfectly good goal ruled out for offside.

Correct but don't let such facts stand in the way of a piss poor conspiracy theory.

Anyone who watched both matches would have seen that Ukraine gave everything. It just so happened that a very gifted set of individuals actually played like a team for once in the second leg.
