Who let the Croatians into the world cup?

So far there has been somebody running onto the pitch and flares lit in the stands. Next they'll be throwing the flares onto the pitch and smoke it out ;)

Heh! That's how they do things over there. It CAN look great if done properly, and not by loonies who would endanger others (but I can fully understand why flares are banned here)

I only watched the last 25 minutes, but the Croats did pretty well. We are going to have to improve 100% to beat them - hopefully they underestimate us and ease up a little... If they do, we are a great chance.

I have a few good mates who are of Cro descent - it would be interesting to see who they barrack for when that game comes around!!! :)

The Croatians compete to get in like any body else. If they let people in then the Aussies may have been there sooner :wink:

So far as loutish behaviour by fans - I'd say the Brits have that one down cold and would be hard to beat. :)

I actually dont think either team played terribly well, Brasil seemed pretty flat and Croatia were having issues connecting passes.

Guess we will see what happens over the next couple of weeks eh? :D

Just took years of getting pounded by other countries and all the pent up frustration had to go somewhere :)

Needless to say, my sleep deprived co-worker was very happy today.
