hello serhii

Thank you very much by your words, you are right when saying that I must have a friend or friends of the Ukraine, but the truth is that until now the only person with who I speak you are your, I do not understand anything of your language and that frustrates to me , single I speak Spanish and English although my English is not very good that we say, but in short, I hope that while I am in the Ukraine I can say to you hello . Your you have been good wave with me and for that reason I mean thanks. As far as soccer, good the party finished and gained Italy, the expulsion of zidane was horrible , but good I believe that in the end they were the Italians that kicked well in penaltis . Let us hope that in next the world-wide one the Ukraine goes to us much better (and ecuador )me cheers knowledge that received very well to the players to their arrival to the Ukraine, deserve it because they made history in Germany , I hope that we continue speaking to weighing of which the world-wide one finished . until the next one.

Used to be that the "World Cup" was exactly that ... the "World Cup." This year, however, it's become the "'FIFA' World Cup." As if there's some OTHER "World Cup" out there which must be distinguished, formally, from the one FIFA organizes. Yes, I know, FIFA is worldwide soccer's governing body, and runs the "World Cup," but if there's only one "World Cup," why the sudden, inexplicable compulsion to include "FIFA" in front of it? It's superfluous and unnecessary.

Angry FIFA money above everything else

FIFA (Federation Internationale de Football Association) has told the England football team players that they may not display Poppies on their football shirts when they play Spain in a forthcoming match.

The wearing of fabric Poppies during the early part of November has become part of Britain's culture during many years. It marks the period of remembrance of all those that have died serving their country since World War 1 (which ended on the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month of 1918). The money raised from the sale of these Poppies funds charitable work aiding widows and the families of the fallen in all wars, including support for the living injured in places like Afhanistan.

Apparently FIFA are banning the Poppies because it does not comply with the sponsorship regulations. I assume this translates to a ban on unpaid advertising being displayed by players. Heaven forbid that this "sport" that generates billions of revenue, enabling all involved to earn mouth watering amounts of money, should give FREE advertising to even the this most honourable of causes.

This is indicative of all that is rotten about our changing society, and I'm consoled that although my lifespan will probably end within the next 15 years, the way society is going, I'll probably be escaping it in good time.
Plese see:-
