Disclaimer & comment rulesArgentina squealing now until 7th July.....and then some more squealing to Daniel Pollack.

You'd think they could come up with something a bit more original than the Fakklands playbook, this being to loudly proclaim your willingness to negotiate while doing everything possible to ensure that no negotiations take place.
Jul 01st, 2014 - 03:50 pm - Link - Report abuse 0It conjures up the image of the empty chair in the Foreign Office when Timerman didn't show up for the negotiations he demanded. They seem to go very quiet when they have to actually face the people they bad-mouth all over the world. What is that 'c' word?…….. Cowards.
Jul 01st, 2014 - 03:52 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Is argieland going to try “negotiating” via Mr Pollack? It all takes time as he trots back and forth. Ridiculous offer from argies, Pollack passes it on, hedge funds say 1.33 billion now, Pollack goes back and so on and on. Until argieland says “Well, we tried”. NML starts seizing assets.

Jul 01st, 2014 - 04:25 pm - Link - Report abuse 0They remind me of these poor kids who self harm!
Surely this farce will go on and on, until someone stops it and demands Argentina pays or defaults.
Jul 01st, 2014 - 06:37 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Bo Hoo If you are going to cry about a debt being hard to collect then don't buy it in the first place.
Jul 01st, 2014 - 07:16 pm - Link - Report abuse 0The reason you got it cheap is because it is hard to collect.
Now go wax Singers new super yacht you goober.

Again and again they refuse to speak with the people that matter! Just like they refuse to meet the Falkland Islanders.
Jul 01st, 2014 - 08:37 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Still wondering if they are stalling because they are trying to work out a shady deal with the Chinese to get the holdouts paid without triggering holdover clauses with the restructured bond holders...

Jul 01st, 2014 - 10:13 pm - Link - Report abuse 0It was well watched in the USA Elaine. The Red Sox had it on in the locker room and many NFL stadiums had crowds with mega screens showing the game. I missed it I just got home. Worcester (Mass) had a large tv in the square for the public to watch. 16 saves by Howard....a WC record.....but still a loss.

Jul 02nd, 2014 - 01:16 am - Link - Report abuse 0@12 The USA game? Yes, I heard people were abandoning work to watch it. I was out at a dinner but watched some of extra time. USA were very exciting to watch but not good enough. I think people in the US should be proud of their team. Next time…..
Jul 02nd, 2014 - 07:10 am - Link - Report abuse 0I am not a big fan as I am the NFL but....it is my countrymen, how could I not root for them. I spent the past several weeks in Argentina. My appreciate of the sport and it's competitive grew quit a bit.
Jul 02nd, 2014 - 09:19 am - Link - Report abuse 0We never seem to get beyond the 16 and we backed our way in there. Great goalie and not enough on offense. Anyone that thinks soccer is not growing in the USA is just not in the USA......lol.
