Get posting on all things World Cup!

Thought the first game was pretty good and a draw was a fair result. What about those horns though? I'll think I'll get one of them for the Caley Park!

Dire as England have been, they just need to beat wee Slovenia and they will be through, probably topping the group.

If USA beat Algeria they'll need a two goal margin and on that showing it's not going to happen.

:014: :(

just?

they just had to beat USA & Algeria!! great players, 5hit team

If USA draw with Algeria and Slovenia beat England they'll finish bottom of their group. (A before E)

England couldn't even score :(

Last 16!

Their having a laugh!

Another battling draw as England remain unbeaten in the Group of Death

England were absolutely abysmal.

Absolutely, the world's finest teams haven't been able to get the better of them, despite England being faced with the handicap of playing with a different ball to their opponents.

Where or what is Grosblie? Sounds German.

There's been a big red Grosblie banner at quite a few of the games in this tournament, and I recall the very same banner appearing frequently at the last few tournaments too.

Prima Donnas without spirit, energy or desire.

Pathetic, shambolic team. Individually they apparently play out of their skins in the League games but representing their country they pass across and backwards more than in the right direction.

I wonder how Scotland would have fared in comparison. Any views on that?

I reckon we'd possibly draw with the U.S. and Beat Algeria. Not sure about beating Slovenia though but given our resorces against the Auld enemies. That's about as good as it could realistically get I reckon. We can always dream

I've watched both the Slovenia games so far, and if England can't beat Algeria then they won't beat Slovenia either. From what I've seen, Slovenia are a good side, though I think England will certainly up their game.

You can just about sum up the tournament so far by looking at the continents, with only a few exceptions.

The Africans have been a big let down.

Asia/Pacific will go home with a fair amount of credit

The South Americans have been very good, and must be responsible for more attacking than all the other teams added together.

The Europeans have been pretty dismal.

I was shocked Italy got a dodgy penalty today. Didn't the referee realise they wanted a win? I'd have at least expected a red card or two to go with it.

Well done New Zealand. That cheered me up (although I was feeling fairly chipper before it anyway - beautiful weather and no work, y'see)

I think Scotland are about USA/ Algeria/ Slovenia level. Nothing too great in that lot and not much to separate them either. We could have got to the second stage with the right attitude, but then, we would never have been seeded like England.

I still expect England to go through (although I'll happily be cheering on Slovenia). They've got a good squad but it needs a little tinkering. For me, Rooney, on the left, Lampard dropped and Crouch/ Defoe up front.

Erm, and the answer is?

Thank goodness for Argentina Mexico and New Zealand , the rest of the games have been lower than a snakes belly.

England were absolutely abysmal.

How poor has Rooney been? I watched Denmark v Cameroon last night which was quite enjoyable.

Narrow win for the portuguese today

7 going on 17 by the sounds of it!

I drove past a Burger King earlier this evening. Outside there was a big board advertising a promotion where you can win the chance to watch the World Cup Final (on TV) with Jimmy Greaves.

The place was empty.

Watching Brazil play in a square in Brazil beats nearly any other TV football experience I have had.

Why were they playing in a square? :huh:

Oh I see.

as if things werent bad enough for the French ..... 1-0 down to South Africa and down to 10 men after 25 mins

Come On South Africa :huh:
