RumPuncher Posted September 26, 2005 Author Share Posted September 26, 2005 bumpers France are readers' favourites to qualify If these were election results, they would be cracking open the champagne. According to the European Zone poll that has been running for the last few days on FIFAworldcup.com, 54 per cent of our readers are convinced that France will finish top of Group 4. This new tide of optimism has been generated by the returns of Zinedine Zidane, Claude Makelele and Lilian Thuram, along with Les Bleus' 1-0 victory in Ireland. ^ I just hope Henry is back from his injury in time to play the Swiss.

Dr. Dazzle Posted September 27, 2005 Share Posted September 27, 2005 My job could be on the line when England play Poland, since my boss is from Poland. But it would still be worth it if we can win..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest imported_Tesseract Posted September 27, 2005 Share Posted September 27, 2005 Hving seen all the new blood in the brazilian team, i'm kinda conviced that the final will be theirs for the sixth time. Robigno, Ronaldigno, Adriano, kaka...and the list goes on.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RumPuncher Posted September 27, 2005 Author Share Posted September 27, 2005 you know what hurts.... to think of the quality of ladies that the Brazillian team turns away. I mean there's probably girls who I'd consider to be perfect 10's, but they're still no where near hot enough to even be a second mistress for the goal keeper.

Dr. Dazzle Posted October 9, 2005 Share Posted October 9, 2005 Well, England played like shit, once again, but still managed to qualify, so it's not all bad. The sending off of Beckham was fucking ludicrous, the first booking wasn't even a fucking foul! But oh well, it's mute now anyway. Here are the latest additions to qualify on Saturday. The African section is cuhrazzzzy. No Cameroon? No Nigeria? I tipped them to win the damn thing! Angola Ivory Coast Togo Ghana Tunisia Holland Poland England Croatia Italy Portugal Costa Rica Ecuador Paraguay That makes it 24 so far. We'll know (most of) the remaining 8 teams on Wednesday!

RumPuncher Posted October 14, 2005 Author Share Posted October 14, 2005 wheeee.... France locked down group 4. Not only did they get the goals needed over Cyprus, but the Swiss tied with Ireland, which is also good. Group 4 was super tight this year.

Quoted post to be honest i dont think sven is that bad a manger. now, havent we only lost 6 or 7 competitive games under him. also, if we keep lampard and terry together in the midfield i reckon we habve a better chance....
