    Not really rigged or fixed, but I call shenanigans on Maradona's hand of god in world cup 86 and Thierry Henry's hand of god against Republic of Ireland in 2010. There is no way that those goals should have been allowed. Blatant cheating should not be tolerated.

    Completely disagree with ya on the Maradona one. If ya watch highlights of all his games (including the quarter final against England) Maradona was hacked and kicked throughout the tournament, nobody playing against him played by the rules, so neither did he. If the rules were enforced properly in the first place he'd probabl

    Champions League 2014

    Liverpool 2 - 1 Ludogorets

    The way the Ludogorets keeper messed up to concede penalty in final minute after they had just equalized had me dubious.

    That last shot in the Hurling Final was actually over the bar but they had tampered with the machine in order to ensure a draw ;)

    The Football Final was fixed too, but Colm McFadden made the fatal mistake of missing a goal chance in the last minute, don't worry he's been taken care of since, so no one will make that mistake again :)

    Last year's Football Final was supposed to end in a draw too but the ref blew up with Mayo a point behind instead of letting them equalise, he was brutally taken care of too.

    The GAA don't take kindly to people f*cking up their plans.

    Can you elaborate on that? I'm not questioning your point but what's the story here?


    Ive heard it a few times from sources not usually given to to stirring it up. Mind you these people telling the story were pretty intoxicated.
