Guest Guest Posted June 20, 2014 I'm putting my money on France to win the world cup .They've just overtaken Holland as the team who've scored most goals so far.Hard for english fans to watch.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RIP Wee Jum 1,559 Posted June 20, 2014 France will go quite far, but eventually they will relent and wave the white flag. Brazil or as a second choice Argentina are my pick(s) to win still Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

RIP Wee Jum 1,559 Posted June 22, 2014 The wife said to me, "Whenever a World Cup game is on, let's eat something to do with that team for tea that night." Mexico were on, we had burritos. Japan were on, we had sushi. USA were on, we had burgers. Italy were on, we had pizza. Tuesday is England, so we're going out. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Deathray 2,940 Posted June 23, 2014 Potential for a semi-repeat of the 1982 spontaneous match fixing scandal despite the rule change to prevent it happening. The difference will be desired outcome; this time it's any draw (probs 0-0) that would suit both teams. USA v Germany might be the most boring and exciting match of the tournament.

Deathray 2,940 Posted June 23, 2014 http://www.theguardi...against-germany Klinsmann says he won't play for a draw. If Klinsmann said it it must be true. I'm call 2-2 at 70 minutes and then they play midfield for the draw. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bibliogryphon 9,573 Posted June 24, 2014 I was surprised none of the more hysterical tabloids didn't focus on Italy's inability to beat Costa Rica they could have easily run a headline of Flop of the Wops Does this explain why I don't work in journalism?

Dr. Zorders 1,271 Posted June 24, 2014 I don't know about his football career being "over". But it definitely proves he's a nutter as I thought ever since the first bite. You never saw Eric Cantona going back for seconds after that ban he had. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
