They have actually made me rather like Cucerella...

The strictly people will also want to do a football themed dance too. Cha cha cha in football shirts

He could sing better than that choir

Oh I’m sooo late to the party but - why bother having a World Cup if the reffing is as biased and bad as this?! FIFA are spineless and worthless. Why bother - we’re better off with just the regular leagues, the euros and ignoring the World Cup. I’ve turned off - I don’t need to watch people being allowed to cheat.

Don’t forget Take That and the Spice Girls

I had more fun filing the bottom of my feet last week than I'm having watching this game.

It was worth it for the half time entertainment though ! Made me laugh and BTS are back !

I hate Argentina, and how they play. If you can call it playing football. 🙄

Richard and Judy.
Rick Astley
Bob the builder

the list is endless!

Free kick Spain

Just wait until the 2028 Olympics, it'll be election year and Trump will be looking for a biggy finale to his wonderful 4 years in office!

I think he's already said he wants Argentina to win because Javier Millei his maniac chainsaw wielding disciple

Oh yes, the Olympics are being held in the US arnt they! More muppets and Shakira I guess !

This may be a lie.

Judy could gave a wardrobe/bra malfunction

I do like an Olympic opening ceremony., especially on mumsnet !
