Welcome, fellow goons, in today's Hublot Forum of Friendship Thread of Sorrow.

There's no football today :(

Let's come together to get through this difficult time. This is a place to shitpost, mock teams that failed to get out of the group stages, or failed to qualify. A place to lament the injustice of Argentina advancing but Senegal going out. A place to laugh about Neymar diving or getting fouled. A place to admire Belgium and Croatia, and snicker about the delusional people who think it's coming home.

A place of Fagner and Loftus-Cheek.


By the way, I know none of you clicked the team threads I've linked in the last MDT :argh:

So for those of you who make the next MDTs going forward, don't bother linking them. I'm taking a break from making the threads, to give other people a chance to do something cool with them :)

I know it's a rhetorical question but yes, where I said fouled read "times a foul was called", and that's why it's ridiculous

I was phone posting!

Both games tomorrow look as if they might be good, that's a relief. Imagine a day without foot and the next match being something like Switzerland vs Sweden.

according to my official power rankings senegal and iran were both robbed because they are better than argentina and so in a different group they would have qualified for the knockouts, :rip:
