Post by Manc In Black »

http://www.fifa.com/worldcup/news/index.html

Sign up here & spend hours preparing to watch England in South Africa for the World Cup
Bit disappointed to find the Stranglers are not currently signed up for the Concert schedule

Start here planning your footie heaven viewing schedule

GROUP C
UK Times
Sat June 12th England v USA 19.30
Fri June 18th England v Algeria 19.30
Weds June 23rd England v Slovenia 15.00

so assuming we get somewhere, the following maybe have to be planned:

STAGE 2
Sat June 26th / Sun June 27th 19.30 or 27th 15.00

QTR FINALS
Fri July 2nd 15.00/19.30 or SatJuly 3rd 15.00/19.30

SEMIS
Tues 6th July 19.30 or Weds 7th July 19.30

FINAL
Sun 11th July 19.30

Will probably watch Engurland matches, but with the sound turned down as it will be a total bullshit fest.

More interested in Group D
Date - Time
13/06 20:30 Germany - Australia
18/06 13:30 Germany - Serbia
23/06 20:30 Ghana - Germany

Mrs TOTS is Germanic, before anyone says anything.

I thought the Weds game kicked off at 4pm - I'm in Sheffield that day.

I have a file that adds all the schedules to Outlook :grin:

That's what Sky/Virgin+ is for. :wink: :wink:

Prefer Eurosports coverage of TDF anyway.

Rooney to outperform Messi
England to get one over on the Germans
the hand of God to get an own goal
France to get Nil points

England to score all their penalties
A semi final win

All the way or what

Get off the fence

I think we have a good team and a good chance
As long as the players remember they are playing for england and leave the legend in there own minds at home.
Watch how the rest of the uk are green with envy over England being at the world cup..Why they dont surrport the english is behond me.
Some would rather watch germany or spain the only reason for this is pure and utter jelousy..
Come on England

Fishing????

On paper, yes England do have good players. Whether that can be translated into a team capable of winning the big one has yet to be proved.
Could they win it?, possibly? Will they win it?, statistically speaking unlikely, having only won it once.

I couldn't have cared less if Scotchland were there as well.

The last world Cup I was interested in Sweden(Son can play for them), Germany(Wifey is German) & Trinidad & Tobago(1st ever Falkirk FC player to play in a WC, Russell Latapy).

AS it's only Germany that's qualified, they'll have to do.

Jealous as F*ck right enough :smt005 :smt005

So the season is over & now boys & girls the count down for the World Cup

think it's great that the England players are signing over some of their match fees to charity;
http://www.teamenglandfootballerscharity.com/

Think they ought to do this all the time, deffo the Prem players with their obscene wages / apperance fees / image rights

England were good enough in 66
Think it's time some of these "stars" show they are good enough.
