they said what?

Removing your Alexander Buttner tattoo? It’s the sporting week in comments

Our favourite readers’ remarks from the past seven days.

WE HAD ANOTHER week dominated by the World Cup and, in particular, a certain Uruguyan:

After Bitegate Part III, the Luis Suarez jokes were inevitably flying: 

Lol like an old laptop. Two bytes and no memory!!!

Commenter Patrick Keane seems to be getting slightly confused here: 

Great year for Samaras, especially after he won Eurovision

With the arrival of Luke Shaw, it’s safe to say Alexander Buttner won’t be missed by most Manchester United fans: 

I’ll have to get his name taken off all my jerseys now,and my tattoo of his face removed.

One of the students who took part in the New Zealand schools haka responds to negative remarks about the traditional dance. 

It’s funny reading the comments as one of the acually haka performers, and no it’s not a little dance, it’s a hundred years of tradition and emotion put into weeks of practise performed for the pride of our school. Have just a little bit of respect, please.

There’s definitely something likeable about this current US team: 

The only time I ever cheer the USA in anything (Sport, War, etc) is when their soccer team are playing.  Not always, but sometimes, like against Portugal or Germany for example.

None of the top five ‘big boppers’ of world rugby  have a patch on this former Ireland and Munster prop:  

They’re big men but no Bull Hayes legend.

Johnny O’Laddy predicts LeBron’s next move:  

Might still rejoin the Heat as a free agent. BBalls version of BOD making a half time appearance during a Biarritz game!

We love a Simpson’s reference at TheScore.ie. Especially when it involves David Luiz: 

Hope he doesn’t step in any rakes.

‘Arry was claiming several Spurs players skipped England duty but added that he wouldn’t “name and shame” them. This needs to happen:  

Is Harry Redknapp relevant again? No, I didn’t think so but I would like him to reveal the names from his car window.
