i can't see them winning it but i can see them getting to the semis. for me if they play spain or brazil before then they'll get knocked out (as will any team who plays them, best two teams in the world by far at the moment... and i for one hope they both reach the final) england lack a quality goalkeeper and maybe a world class skriker to win the world cup b to do well. i'm with you though i hope they (with france) get dumped out in the first round.
You might have a problem squeezing money out of Robbie though ![coming from Scotland ] .
I think, you can get a Irish team and Robbie can always get an Everton team to take the place of Scotland .
Also if you ...cup .. your hands to your faces , you can make some good crowd noises !!!
Mean while , i will sit in my nice chair surrounded by bottles of beer ,cheering on England !!!
One thing Trev , you won't have the hand ball problem !!

Originally posted by Palynkathey didn't? 😵 what have france done in the past 4 years? they're crap. out in the last 8 along with argentina (as long as they don't meet in the last 16)
Imagine if Group A had a poor team from pot 4. 😵
tough one for spain, no one and then maybe portugal or brazil in the last 16.

Originally posted by Palynkameh, defeated the mighty norn' ireland didn't they? no doubt france have better players than most teams in pot 4 but they don't have a coach, i would rank denmark, serbia and portugal well above france. even with the other 4 europeans team in pot 4, if you play them you know you're playing against a team, not so with france.
Compared to Slovakia?
to back up my point re domenech
France coach Raymond Domenech said his team are in a "tough group like the others". "We would have to win at least two games to qualify. It's never easy to play against the host team but it's our third game so by then we could be qualified," he tells Reuters, adding that there were "no so-called groups of death this time".
idiot.

Originally posted by Palynkayour last game is brazil. might work out in your favor if you both just need a point to progress, funny how often those matches end up in draws.
Portugal to progress will also be a juicy bet. I think a lot of money will go to Brazil-IC progressing and the bookies will hedge. I think our first game is against Brazil. If we lose badly and Ivory Coast wins then I'll put some money on a Portugal-Brazil double to progress.
