I've looked up the title: "Walking -- surveying and evaluating a sport for everybody" (Walking - Bestandsaufnahme und Evaluationsstudie einer Sportart für alle).
So Jive Talking could be included
Groupings are decided by Fifa rankings, with the 'strongest' teams kept apart until the knockout stage, but it's very hit and miss. Getting a clean sweep is really good for morale and pride, but that's all it is.
I'm very pleased for both Ireland and Poland, (other than the Sikhs, they're the largest ethnic groups in Southampton.) However, I do feel sorry for Gordon Strachan, he did alright by Southampton and was treated appallingly by our then manager Rupert Lowe.

And sticking with the Celtic theme, let's doff our caps to the Welsh, who have made a major football tournament for the first time since '58. Hopefully, they can keep it up and qualify for the World Cup as well. All Hail, Gareth Bale !
There's only one sort of football, and it doesn't involve putting your head between another man's legs.

This illustrates something I was saying earlier: some anthropologist discovers a bit of bone somewhere, and whole theories spring up or get revised.
Now we learn humankind did not arrive out of Africa 60000 years ago, because they were already in China 20000 years before.
I think I'll go and dig up some bone fragments and write me a PhD thesis. It'll be as good as anybody else's.

But the referee and 15 Australians managed in the end to beat 14 gallant Scots.
