Brazil or Holland to win.
So shall we make this the official World Cup thread? Who will be watching at home, and who will be down the pub? And what will those of you who can't stick football be doing instead?

For me, if it can't be England, it should be a rank outsider like Trinidad and Tobago.

Yes, tell me. Class doesn't mean she's 11 Oldspice. She could be 17.

A teacher! I never thought of that. Still there's potential there.

Going back to football, I think some TV announcers could do with a geography lesson. According to the one who's just been on, Portugal are about to take on Angora!
Was he trying to pull the wool over your eyes?

Would you like to try his cherry?

Last night's game was awesome. Showed how the game should be played. England have let us down. Not just the manager but the players too. They were never up for it.
Are you talking about France/Portugal?? If so, I think the game was average. France deserved to win simply because Portugal were shameless cheats, intent on being awarded free kicks for throwing themselves all over the pitch. Luckily, it didn't work. France did not play a brilliant game and i think the France/Italy final will be much of the same.

Been backing them both since day one, even though they didnt
start out so well, so cant lose either way now - although whoever wins
i'll be happy, but also a little sad... Cant wait for sunday - getting
so excited for the final.
