The France Thread
<sigh>....ok I was waiting for someone to start one for the home team but I guess I'm the only French supporter here
Allez Les Bleus . Hopefully they can be inspired to great heights by Didier Decshamps band of merry men who defied all expectations to win the World Cup in that glorious summer of 1998. And Michalak rocks !!!!

He's called "Biscuit" because he crumbles under the slightest pressure.
France need to find a front five to front up to NZ to have any chance of winning it, as good as they can be.

AWTA, he's devastating when on-song. Just a shame it doesn't happen that often.

Can any one tell me what Bernard Laporte is on about , accusing ABs of being Drug cheats ? WTF is wrong with him ? I would compulsorily and repeatedly test all the French on this account alone, because Laporte is IMO covering their own cheating , I suspect by accusing others ...

He's always been a bit of a "maverick" (read "tool") tho; I'd actually doubt he's ever named the same XV twice in a row in 70-odd tests. I've always been of the opinion France have done whatever they've done in spite of rather than because of him. |

Reasons not to support France - Number 527. Just Putting it out there...
Lazy journalist could have done better than just ripping off the book he references and an article from sang-et-or.net a while back, though. Last edited by steds; 07-09-2007 at 12:24 PM. |
