Well done U.S.A. Blast, England got through(!) Mind you, with this world cup going through second may just mean England face Ghana in the next round, leaving the U.S. with Germany.

Go Defoe!!!


Honestly couldnt be happier. Love him! (positioning). Whilst Emile played I was abit confused as to why but I see qualities that both have that we dearly need. However, with good management we can play both at the right times.

Slovenia: Hardest team in the table I thought. We are just more safe with David James in goal and he makes it look like its all just too damn easy. Robson needs more exp. David James is gonna be more of a pair of safe hands versus anyone I think and we just need to improve our defensive lines thinking. Slovenia gorgeous, but luck does come into it and we been down on it. Rooney aint had much of a look in but I bet he has been seen as the threat and so limited.

I saw USA's goal against Algeria and it is an omen, an omen that they should stop looking at somethings as a world series when like only they play it.

With the level of foresight beyond sight it looks like your tabloids were right and as such i will try not to underestimate them. USA has topped the tables!

With a possible Argentina match after that glorious victory! After trouncing Germany and Argentina, England will be well prepared for the possible Brazil game to come after that!

I think Germany are beatable. Watching the Brazil, Portuguese game they are too. I think it could be anyones year this year.

Id like to take this opportunity to make myself unpopular on these boards by shouting.

'GO GO GHANA!!!'

No longer can the Americans taunt us brits that they were above us in the league stage because they just lost to GHANA 2-1 lmao. Great result for Ghana.

Lets hope England can follow Ghanas example tomorow and hopefully go for another 5-1 victory

I'll break the silence on this one. I did say our defensive line needed a rethink and that it's probably the worst England team that I can remember. The cracks in defense got exposed today. Too many people who I see, haven't agreed with Capello's decisions before and after. We're starting to think that having a foreign manager is a bit like turkeys praying for Christmas but that would be wrong. It could be that we are just haven't got the players today. Thoughts?

England suck at football.
England have sucked at football.
England will suck at football.

Anyone seeing a pattern yet.
They never learn. Buy foreign players for all ya damn clubs, and we end up with an England team that cant kick its way out of a wet paper bag. Not too suprised, to be honest. Although that disallowed goal sounds damn criminal (I didnt watch it )

It hit the crossbar, landed inside the line (clearly visible from video replays, not sure what the linesmen saw), and bounced out.

I'm classifying it as "what might have been". (And I believe many Germany supporters are classifying it as "44-year old revenge".) Would it have made any difference? Who knows.

Of course, I support the Asian teams, so I'm no stranger to hopeless causes.

We lost the war against an onslaught...but today both teams had equal numbers.

Nah, it does not exactly classify as revenge. It is more like justice that took a bit longer to be served.
Unknown to the general public the involved parties actually practiced this very event in secret to awaken a bit of Wembley nostalgia during the old classic (or rather the newest WWII reenactment according to the ever demure English tabloids). Sure enough it worked perfectly during the actual match.

i always thought the IRB had some crappy refs but heck me FIFA has worse...

So it aint the team's who decide who'll be the champion, but the referee's. Alike the match of Argentina vs Mexico, same story where he didnt see the offside.

At 4pm its time for our folks, with a bad-reputation (i like to trow yellow cards around) referee.. aint looking good

Well I learned a bit of football law I didn't know from that game. When the German goalkeeper took the goal kick for the first goal, 2 attackers including the goalscorer were well offside. It's stated in the offside law that you can't be offside from a goal kick - never knew that.


It's true. This game is NOT rocket surgery. - BillZBubba
