Come on South Africa!!!
What's that old man with the white beard doing playing for France? Are they that desperate they have retirees playing? :lol:
Hey, I thought I'll find Turkey in the list, but I didn't find it....Ummm, perhaps because there is no Turkey in the World Cup 2010? LOL
Argentina win - 45 ( As they are on fire.)
Nigeria win - 5
France have been dreadful on and off the field. A pity because they have some very good players but it is poetic justice in a way if they go out as they got there by dubious means. What will happen the North Koreans? A spell in the gulag. They are probably mainly military/police thugs so if they "vanish" they might meet some of their former victims. Now that'd be poetic justice! OOh I'm sooh cruel!
Bafana Bafana!!!!!!

France are out! France are out! France are out!

Way to go! They played very well. :)Quote:

Excellent matches tonight! Great football :)
Tomorrow:
Slovenia vs England
USA vs Algeria
Australia vs Serbia
Ghana vs Germany
not sure what to vote here...
Slovenia v England- Draw 10
Usa win- 20 points
Serbia win- 5 points
I think Ghana could give Germany a run for their money... but i also think Germany will step it up because they need to win this game to qualify...
I think i'll risk 5 on a Draw...
Its weird... i have no remorse for France failing. For me, their failure shows that karma does exist and it will come back and bite you in the arse!:willy_nilly: I am definitely one of the population celebrating karmas justice! :D
Come on, it is time we played!!!!!
We need old Brian in the dressing room before the match:

http://khs-wiki.wikispaces.com/space...gland-flag.jpg
For me it is all about the formation. If Capello contines to :beatdeadhorse5: with Heskey and the rigid 4-4-2 with Gerrard on the left then I can see Slovenia's bus in defence holding out easily. If not, and Capello does what everyone wants, then I think we can do it, 2-0.
Once more...!!!
Slovenia vs England- England win 10 Woolfs :grouphug:
USA vs Algeria - USA win 5 Faulkeners
Australia vs Serbia - Draw 5 er...Kangaroos
Ghana vs Germany - Germany win 10 Goethes
:wink5:
Come on Ennnnnnnnngggggggggllllllllannnnnnnnddddddddddd!!! !!
I'm not backing anyone tomorrow. Just to be safe.
Yay, I'm flush with money again!! Tonight's picks require some thought. I don't think any of these are sure things.
10 Kants on a germany win :)
Not sure what to make of the fact that they put a german referee up for the match Slovenia vs. England, though :confused:
Thanks! I'm so proud I'm bursting at the seams! It's like watching your kid graduate or something :DQuote:

This is good news, my predictions have been astonishingly wrong so far.
At a minimum I think that game is too risky to bet. So I'm going to go with just these two:Quote:

and finally we come to England, the most shockingly bad team all tournament who dont look capable of scoring in 90 hours let alone minutes, look for them to score a few today and beat Slovenia. 10 rabbie burns.
Hopefully it won't turn out that the dead horse is England getting beaten by Slovenia.Quote:

I'm going home early to watch and compose a triumphalist tract, or a lamentation.
I'm not betting anything today...I have no idea who to go for...
I just hope that England and Germany make it ..
Not a world cup without them around ..
I want to enjoy the games .. so big boys should stay in the game :D
THE VUVUZELA
COMMAN GUYS !!!!!

I agree. Go Slovenia..........(I have them in the seepstake so am staying away from the big screen we're having put up here, as I could get lynched :D!). Seriously though, they do it every time. Overpaid, over-hyped, and a load of primadonnas. Where's their passion? Oh, hang on, they'll still get their huge amounts of wonga whether they win or not :rolleyes:. They ought to be ashamed of themselves, particularly Rooney with his pop at the fans. They've paid huge amounts to follow them to South Africa, but it's all a days pay to him. Wassock!Quote:

I have no idea how these matches will go as this tournament has already seen enough surprises.
As much as I wished England to go through, now I am thinking that they do not actually deserve to.
http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/foot...tches/match_37Quote:
Slovenia coach Matjaz Kek described qualification for South Africa as "a fairytale ending from a Hollywood movie," and a point on Wednesday would take the smallest country at the World Cup through to the last 16. In contrast, England's campaign has the feel of a second-rate black comedy, despite the presence of a supposedly A-list cast.
Nonsense, that has nothing to do with it, it is all about the points...Quote:

Oh wait...they haven't qualified...AGAIN!
Actually I don't care... I haven't been very interested in football anyways. But I want an underdog team to win. Maybe Korea Republic. :p After all, they are the only Asian team to qualify for knockouts. But I guess they have the same chances of winning as my going non veg... or to put it in another terms....all of you turning coprophagous. :D

Dont agree with not playing lennon - to beat slovenia you use width and get behind the full backs this midfield want to shrink in and play central this is not a good idea
Yeeeeessssssss!!!! Come on England!!!!
This is so unfair.
England does not deserve to be in the last 16. :-/
I've been checking on the USA game off and on. Any updates on how our group is shaking out? I know to advance we needed England to win or draw and for us to win...Quote:
