I think you may find it is and I think he would know it is as he lives there. Yes it's definitely a country I think you'll find that you might be thinking Palestine or however it's spelt as a territory or whatever in the country.Israel is a most definitely a country has it's own Government and Prime Minister just as we do and it's own Football team and such again just as we do. So it has everything to be considered a country even has it's own flag and national anthem. So Tahiti and Niue are countries too. Both have flags, teams and anthems Never heard of Niue but yes Tahiti is a country I believe For all intents and purposes, Tahiti is basically autonomous but is not an independent country, rather it's an 'overseas country' of France, and officially speaking, is part of France. Whether Tahitians (or formally, French Polynesians) actually identify as French is a different story. Israel, on the other hand, is recognised as a country by 160 UN members. The only countries that do not recognise Israel are the Arab states, states which are predominantly Islamic (with the exception of Egypt) and weirdly enough, Cuba and North Korea. The origins of this are traced back to 50's, 60's and World War II and are too complicated to even type. Why there isn't an Israeli flag in the game is probably down to politics and not upsetting countries that do not recognise it, which are very sensitive to the issue. Quoting's broken.

The only money saving mechanism that I think would probably work is a cost cap and none of that two-tier championship crap that was floated back in 2009. Accept it or you're not allowed to enter.

"To hell with consistency." said the ref as he blew his whistle and pointed to the spot.

I have no reason to believe they aren't. There's this little bit inside of me that just dreams of going into space and setting foot on the moon. If it was fake, I'd be absolutely shattered.

The more I see that Sunderland kit, the more I love it and the more I want one. I'd watch Sunderland games just to drool over the kits.

But Robben dived.

Costa Rican fans all complaining on Twitter about the ref. Apart from the missed handball, he wasn't that bad or is that just me being Australian?

Honestly, I wanted Greece to go through.

Greece better win now.

Please not another 30 minutes of this crap.

This match has been awful.

What about this effort?

He's not that bad. Anyway, continuing on from the kit discussion over in the football thread, some of the better World Cup kits. Germany home with the white shorts. Netherlands away. Korea away. USA home and away. Alex Morgan :x Colombia home. And Belgium away.
-
Best current kit is the LA Galaxy away one. Best future kit is the Sunderland away.

So I heard Ben Williams is reffing Costa Rica v Greece. Warning to @mike96: He's horrible.

Secret project? Is it lasers? Please tell me it's lasers.

I believe it's the OP that marks it as answered.

Please don't tell me they went retro with the keeper shirt too.

Penalties please thank you.

You know, I reckon he's staying at Ferrari for the road cars. I know I would.

And now he's rubbish. Adapting is one thing. Actually being successful is another.
