i know its all in the sprit of football in southafrica but id hate to be stood behind some one mindlessly blowing into one, they dont even make any tune at all

its just noise, cheep plastic toys for the stores that sell them to "cash in" they just look like larger versions of the horns you see people use at F1 races and concerts like glastonbry. and those dont sound much better either.

but still i hope the host for the next WC bans them.

duck on speed LoL

Ah, well I'm glad to hear it :) I always just wondered, that's all :D Is football popular in Canada at all? I don't remember ever hearing much about a Canadian team.

theres a lot of fans around, not many die hards though. me and a couple of buddy's is all i know who's a die hard. we suck at football, our country is only good at wintersports. specifically hockey... We do have one good footballer, but he plays for you guys (hargraeves).

Was wondering how long it would take!

Is it me or is the ITV commentators started to get drowned out by that f-ing racket ? I switched to BBC Radio 5's coverage as it was getting too much.

*sigh*

a draw seems bang on atm!

Yeah, pathetic really, England should be walking all over this group. Think they would have performed better in the group of death! We've drawn/lost matches in the last 3 World Cups though:

2006: England 1 - 1 Sweden

2002: England 1 - 1 Sweden, England 0 - 0 Nigeria

1998: Romania 2 - 1 England

    • What browser do you prefer to use, and why?

      The current Statcoungter desktop numbers has Google Chrome increasing it's market share this past year and currently commanding 75% share. Everybody else is just making up the numbers with even MS Edge losing 3% this past year and has dipped just below 10% share which is staggering considering it's default on every Windows deviced purchased. If these numbers are correct that terrible Edge number is both devastating and embarrassing for MS especially when you add in the terribly low Bing market share. This leads me to ask a couple of questions as the default browser holding just less than 10% market share seems really weird. It used to be that all Chromium browsers were being counted as Google Chrome in some cases.  Is this still happening? Do these high Google Chrome numbers contains some Edge user numbers?
    • Browser vendors pen open letter to Microsoft saying "enough is enough"

      Yeah, all web browsers seem to have some junk in them these days. The regular Brave browser has a lot of unnecessary stuff in it, similar to Microsoft Edge, so I don't see any benefits of using Brave over Microsoft Edge if you already have Microsoft Edge fully set up with ad blockers and that. The cleanest or best free browser outside of 'Microsoft Edge' I’ve tried so far is 'Samsung Browser'. It has very little bloat and is a nice-looking web browser with an inbuilt 'Ad blocker'. I also really like the web browser called 'Floorp' that is based on Firefox. This browser can also install Chrome extensions. I have a system wide Ad blocking program for Windows 11 that doesn't just blocks ads in the web browser, but over the whole system. I don't really need a web browser with an inbuilt ad blocker because of that.
