  • Englands Group in the World Cup

    I know I'm behind the times, and you've probably discussed this before but, I was just so astonished by the group England is in that I had to post something.

    Argentina, England, Sweden, and Nigeria.

    Talk about the group of death! Is it just me or does this seem to happen to England too often?

    There were times people would have thought you'd have got to be having a laugh about that rant. I mean let's face it, England's power of once is over now, and so is Germany's. World of soccer turned upside down.

      Your just pissed off that East Germany never won anything and that we gave you a 5-1 thrashing in Munich last September
      One day Canada will rule the world, and then we'll all be sorry.

            not so much turned upside down, as gone accross the channel for an extended holiday!

            the England team may be a little inexperieced this time around, but in 4 years all the key players will be hitting their prime.

              I'm going to boycot this world cup until the semis. It's ridiculous to have China, Costa Rica and Senegal play (while excluding teams like Holland and Scotland).

                everyone replying to me so far, keep em coming!

                East Germany used to have its own team and beat the wessis 1-0 in 72. 74? 78? Go Sparwasse!

                  I mis-read that. You're saying England beat Germany 5-1 in Munich? Was that because England was good or the Germans sucked?

                    why? they qualified and Holland didn't, you have to regionalize the qualifiers or you's have european players having to jet off to play in China on a wednesday and get back to play league football on the saturday, the clubs (who pay the wages) would never stand for it.

                    The Scots and the Dutch are not there because they couldn't win games in the qualifiers against supposedly weaker teams, would you make like to make an exception because we KNOW the Dutch can play better?

                      I certainly wouldn't complain.

                            germany were poor, but england had 6 or so chances and scored from 5 of them, it wasn't a 5-1 game in my book
