BBC commentary when the camera finds Pharrell:

"I think that's AKA Rocky ..... ASAP Rocky."

Given how annoying the cameras showing celebrities in the crowd is, I’d be tempted to do that deliberately.

*camera shows the Beckhams again*

“Look, it’s Baby Spice and Peter Crouch”

 

[dmlaw]

Playing The Ketchup Song over the stadium PA. I wonder if they asked a Brit to name a Spanish language song.

Playing The Ketchup Song over the stadium PA. I wonder if they asked a Brit to name a Spanish language song.

They probably asked Robbie Williams

 

[Suedehead]

Assereje ja ja ja

 

[Soldi]

An England/France final would not have been this DULL

 

[Suedehead]

Damn it!! Nearly

 

[dmlaw]

I would quite like to know whether I win the Copabet if Spain win after extra time or penalties, or if Soldi already has it in the bag.

 

[Tisch]

Oh shit I forgot about Copabet. Why didn't @Soldi remind me

 

[Iguana]

4 MINUTES!

Good segue into Madonna

 

[dmlaw]

I guess we’re about to find out how much power FIFA really have, when we see if they’ve been able to stop Madonna playing a new song.

 

[Suedehead]

Omggg I’m so nervous

 

[Iguana]

So ITV is just ads just now but presumably they are getting the stage ready

 

[Iguana]

Omggg I’m so nervous

Her biggest performance since Eurovision!

 

[Suedehead]

Her biggest performance since Eurovision!

Dont tempt fate by mentioning THAT performance which shall not be named !!!

 

[Suedehead]

Omg why are they talking I want to see the stage being set up

 

[dmlaw]

Should the crowd not be singing “Oh, Jeremy Corbyn”?

 

[rhythmbandit]

Ronaldo has absolutely no idea what's going on.

 

[supermassive]

BTS a kpop group with no visual

 

[dmlaw]

This has too many performers. When you compare it to a Super Bowl half time show, it makes football look ridiculously parochial.

 

[rhythmbandit]

Justin Bieber killing the mood.

 

[dmlaw]

Maybe throwing in a fucking Justin Bieber ballad will save it.

 

[Agneeta]

Bieber absolutely killing any atmosphere stone cold dead.

 

[Agneeta]

Oh not God.

 

[Agneeta]

TF for Shaky

 

[dmlaw]

Everyone in the stadium - “Do you think there’s time to get a pint before the second half starts?”

 

[rhythmbandit]

Can't wait to not hear this again after today until the next World Cup.

 

[Agneeta]

I kinda like it. IT'S BREEZY SUMMER FUN

 

[dmlaw]

Oh, good, now there are some children singing out of tune.

 

[Soldi]

Oh not CHILDREN

 

[Agneeta]

Drivel but Trump will hate this United Colours of Beneton advert.

 

[rhythmbandit]

 

[win_the_game]

Chris Martin is to blame for all of this.

 

[dmlaw]

Well, that was fucking appalling in every conceivable way.

 

[FannyFaudrey]

Did she even come back for the finale?

WAS SHE EVER EVEN THERE?

 

[Tisch]

Did she even come back for the finale?

WAS SHE EVER EVEN THERE?

In the queue cashing her cheque ALREADY

 

[Soldi]

What is happening please?

 

[big ron]

I left the room. Fucking awful and a stain on football.

 

[dmlaw]

FIFA should be embarrassed. Compare that to any Super Bowl show.

 

[rhythmbandit]

Wayne Rooney was asked by Gabby Logan what he thought of the show and he said it was crap

 

[Madison]

What a weird BBC advert. John Cleese should be spinning in his grave.
