s korea to get out of that group is a really good bet its a 11/1 on pp

Unfortunately not as it'd be a good bet. They are 11/1 to win the group which is a big difference.

Whats this about Apres Match? I obviously missed something. RTE coverage is looking better than ever. Been watching for the past hour, some quality entertainment.

Enjoyable stuff from the panel so far. I must say that I'm looking forward to being unemployed for the next month.

If you're on social welfare, just re-imagine your situation as being paid to watch the World Cup. Sorted.

Gilardino is a bit of a donkey...

He called Park outstanding earlier. I think he referred to him as a nothing player in the champions league coverage.

In a nutshell that's the main reason for watching RTE, apart from the hilarious moments of course!

They are very honest in their approach.

But Gilardino is hardly what you call a ****e player in fairness. Honestly don't know how those guys are still in a job (well I do because of people quite easily pleased by their 'analysis'). It's embarrassing tv and I'd much rather watch the bbc/itv/sky sports as an alternative than some 'pundits' on rte just saying things FOR DA LAUGH!!

I'd rather be entertained with the analysis, then have the exact same thing on every other channel. Dont get me wrong, i enjoy BBC's coverage, but the guys on RTE actually argue and bicker between each other. You know, like real people do.
