I have emailed the great man himself with a formal request for a spin-off forum for the duration of the tournament.

I have also, somewhat selflessly, offered to act as a Moderator for said forum on this short-term basis.

LOL @ one of my colleagues (female) wandering over just now to ask whether the Ivory Coast and Nigeria are the same country. Yes, that's right they are - playing under an alias, note how you never see the two teams playing at the same time in the group stages.

TBH, anything between the Sahara and South Africa might as well be the same country. Just one big mish-mash of tribes, poverty, and violence.

lol they don't mean " forum" as in an entirely new forum. They mean a section within this forum like " general football" for the world cup where everyone can start up threads.

It looked as if you were having problems understanding this simple request. Its not that far fetched seeing as a hall of fame section was put up a few months back too.

Paperyes posted a similar response because it was poor to believe it was a windup, most unfunny trolling ever.

No idea where to put this.
