Seriously, what's up with that? As a non-commonwealther, I don't get why England, Scotland, Wales all get separate entries in the WC. Doesn't happen in the Olympics. It's like having California with its own team. Or Alaska.


Agreed

You are right brother. It is clear that the refrees are tougher on some teams.

I think your tip is quite right, except that I put my bet on Germany instead of Argentinia. Argentinia may be good, but the Germans have built up a good self esteem and I think mentally they are in a very good state because of all of the enthousiasm in Germany.

England - Portugal is one of the matches I am looking forward to, that football field will turn into a battle field!

You're just hoping that England go out in the Semi on penalties to maximise the heart break and so we have to play that humiliating third place game. Aren't you?

I don't get that third place game. Who would want to play that game?
