Ryan Posted November 13, 2009 Posted November 13, 2009 Ireland play France tomorrow in Dublin in the first leg of a World Cup qualifier. I thought this was funny.

Ryan Posted November 19, 2009 Author Posted November 19, 2009 And ah 1 , And ah 2 , andah,Au Revoir, Ireland Bonjour, South Africa Congratulations. It was a great match from this perspective. I thought Ireland played one of their best games in long time. As for the winning goal, hand-balls happen, it did look like he guided it a bit though, not to mention two players were offside.. I can't see it doing Henry's reputation much good, that's not to say any other player wouldn't have done the same thing. There'll be some interesting headlines tomorrow. It's up on youtube already, a little jumpy but slows it down at the good bit.. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7qZJrOcgkYM
Chaki Posted November 19, 2009 Posted November 19, 2009 As for the winning goal, hand-balls happen, it did look like he guided it a bit though, not to mention two players were offside.. Henry clearly handled the ball. Apologies to all the Irishmen
laficion Posted November 19, 2009 Posted November 19, 2009 Henry clearly handled the ball. Apologies to all the Irishmen All kidding aside, I did see the slow motion and it does seem like the ball was handled by Henry It kind of spoils the end of the game indeed.
Ryan Posted November 19, 2009 Author Posted November 19, 2009 All kidding aside, I did see the slow motion and it does seem likethe ball was handled by Henry It kind of spoils the end of the game indeed. Well it doesn't matter now, it was a good game to watch. Henry himself admitted it after the match but he was also right when he said the ref should have seen it. Again, what would an Irish player, or any other player, do in the same situation? Own up? Anyway, where would the Irish be without bad luck and feeling hard done by, it's bread and butter to us. The headlines I've seen this morning range from the funny to verging on xenophobic. A couple of jokes just on the radio "Thierry Henry’s hand ball was a foul even in volley ball" The reason why Henry was chosen for Gillette ad “The first touch gets close, the 2nd, closer still“ Good luck for South Africa Guy!
Guibou Posted November 19, 2009 Posted November 19, 2009 nothing to say about football... but about the communication, i sincerely doubt it is genuine...
Ryan Posted November 19, 2009 Author Posted November 19, 2009 nothing to say about football... but about the communication, i sincerely doubt it is genuine... You're right, it was a hoax by an advertising company. http://blog.marketing.ie/?p=1137 Still funnny though. I thought the "Rue des Blaguer" in the french address, though mis-spelt, should have given it away.
