    im not english. but i have lived in england for 5yrs.
    i always support england in cricket and football.

    its been a sad journey. so much potential.
    so little in results.

    england always have a chance to win. on their day they can beat anyone.
    they could win the world cup but they probably wont.
    Its HOLD'em not Fold'EM!

    Your missing the point friend, unless of course your displaying a sense of humour, of which i dont appreciate.

    I think the point of this thread is, if your team is in the World Cup, well done and good luck. If not, then...

    Telling us to come and watch Northern Ireland? Why would I do that when I'm English?

    There is really no argument as you aren't saying anything except pointless anti-England comments? Are we supposed to agree with you and support a different country?!

    As for Euro 2008 we were watching it at home, just like the Northern Ireland fans were.....as usual.

    1 think 1 thing people are overlooking is the weather. For 1st world cup in my life it will be a winter one which should suit us down to ground. Average temp in SA in June/July is 12C

    England
    Slovenia
    Algeria
    USA

    Intresting group, then again like others have said it might have been more intresting for us to get France or P'gal. It looks simplish, but you have to remember that Slovenia beat Russia to get here and USA aren't a bad team at all. The group may end up coming down to GD+ as I have a feeling that we will draw v USA and beat the two others, whilst USA may do the same.

    Other intresting group was Portugaul, Ivory Coast and Brazil. Did you see Carlos Queriouz's face soon after they was drawn in the group? Priceless! I think this group may come down to GD+ too with the Ivory Coast, think Brazil will coast it somehow.

    Even after the draw I don't fancy our chances, because the other nations look so much better upo front than us, whilst I don't think the manager or anyone else for that matter knows our best line up. 6-1 was the last price I saw for us to win the WC, but that is shabby, we're 9th in the rankings, but 3rd fav's to win? You can see that the bookmakers have put it at that price, because we will be backed and if they win it means -££££ for them, whilst in other countries our odds will be a lot bigger! I heard the spanish bookmakers have us at 9-1! and don't believe we're any good!!
