Tunisia fans have unfurled a massive "Free Palestine" flag. #TUNAUS

That "SteveM" seems a bit dim...

There's been a lot of that stuff going on that I've seen on Twitter (I'm not watching a second of the corrupt bloodstained corporate sportwashing fest ;even if it is a meaningless empty gesture it's good for my conscience) but the western media are not covering any of it.

It is perhaps the only positive about this WC.

I didn't; pity they didn't drape it over the cameras when England played the US....nm

Football is all about capitalism, extreme greed, egotism, ugly narcissism - it's now almost as obscene as America's ultra-capitalist equivalents.

Some football matches are good telly.

Is there any televised sport that isn't a business?

All sports are populated by millionaires, football is at the top of the pile because it's by far the most popular sport in the world, should leftists turn our back on everything and be like those fans of Indie pop in the 80s who only liked music by bands who had 3 fans.

"fans of Indie pop in the 80s who only liked music by bands who had 3 fans".

The bands had to have one-word titles too, like "Curve" and "Air". I would have liked them but I couldn't walk outside looking at my shoes.

Curve rocked and Toni Haliday was a total rock-chick godess. Definitely not shoegaze.

although, to keep with the cool indie kid vibe, I should say I prefer their really early stuff, only released on white label, you probably haven't heard of it ..... /sarc

Now, where's that Crispy Ambulance twelve inch...
