I hate Greece and their anti-football (cept THE Greek obv) so I hope the liluns wipe the floor with em.
There should be goals in the second game and then a cagey nervy finale. Should be a boss world cup day.
 
I reckon it'll be a great World Cup day.

I have six crates of lager that are telling me so! Seriously though, I'm so made up, everything's coming together.

Got the HD projector set up & ready to roll, seating in the living room played with & barstools brought in, borrowed extra garden chairs, got a fridge stacked full of beer & bbq foodstuffs, my mate who works in a printers is bringing round some England/World Cup banners he's designed, there's a load of mates & their other halves coming round, three top games on to watch, &, best of all, The Lying Rag has come out to play big time!
 
I'm looking forward to the Argentina game the most.

Will they be amazing ?

Will they be uncertain ?

Will Maradona do something "newsworthy" ?

Can't wait.

hahaha.

I'm sure!

I'm so excited, I've been excited about this World Cup for so long, but now I cant wait for todays games, & to sit watching England in a competitive tournament is good enough, but to have it preceded by Argentina Nigeria is the cherry on top.

I'm hoping for lots of technical audio-visual talk, Jon Fox.

Suspects ?

Oncy or FFF ?
 
Oncy is the even money favourite.



This quote below from Barry Glendinning sums it up well for today:

Today, I'll be donning my nacho hat, filling the brim with chilli, sour-cream and guacamole, sitting down with a six-pack of weak, tasteless lager and shouting "USA! USA! USA!" at my television, because I'm plumping for Bill Bradley's Stateside soccerball superstars to put the cat amongst the pigeons in the Group C opener by beating England at odds of 11-2.

It would be disingenuous of me to pretend that this decision is not partly based on this petty Irishman's desire to to see England get beaten, but I genuinely believe the USA will get a result.

My kebab pimp also thinks England will lose.

I think 1-1 draw.

hahahahaha. There will be NONE. Yesterday's match was that gash it was welcome relief, none of that malarkey today, three class matches, beer, flame grilled meat, bitter Irishmen. Bring. It. On.

I've actually got an Irishman attending today, he's supporting England though, cos he's from that other part of Ireland where they do that.

That's what approx half our areas houses look like. Only with purple wheelie bins.

I have one St George flying proundly, though there will be some bespoke banners added later.

I see what you're trying to do mister.
 
I did 5 bookings or more in my bet yesterday. Tried to back the 1-1 draw in the first game but my phone just wouldn't connect to Betfair 🙁

I'm looking at the Argentina game today and I'm seeing a few bookings there too and its 1.84, so I'm going to select that as my bookings game for the day.

Think about it John - USA's best striker scored one premier league goal last season - every England striker scored more than that.

They've got a centre half playing who hasn't played all season long, the other one plays for Watford. Not one USA player would get into the England team.

Walk in the park.

[/quote]I think every single player we have scored more than that this season with the exception of Carragher and the keepers.
But that doesn't mean shit to me. I would take a 1-0 all day if offered it.
 
The USA beat Spain last year and almost beat Brazil in the final too. They're a pretty good team, they'll be hyper-motivated, and if England get off to their usual shit slow start, ignominy awaits.

I just hope both teams go for it: I'd like to see a PL-paced match at a World Cup for once.

Isn't that game being played at altitude ?

That might slow it down a bit - and it might give a slight edge to the Yanks who I think will be fitter and busier than England - Particularly if Lampard and Gerrard start in the middle
 
Good matches ahead. South Korea should do Greece. They play good quick football. Argentina Nigeria is going to be a cracker. Watch that beast of a lb Taiwo. England, well good luck to them. The USA are quite enterprising.

Alll fair points, that's why I think capello will bore us to death but get the points he knows all of the above & will be all about being technically sound & not giving it away.

I'll take being bored & a win all day cos finishing top means a lot when you look at the shake out further down.
