Today's World Cup draw: location will be crucial

[CorgiRegisteredFriend]

Looking forward to the draw on Sunday now!!!

That's what it's all about.

 

[TrickyOne]

Oh well, can't see us doing much in this group.

 

[Ⓩ-Ⓐ-Ⓜ-Ⓞ-Ⓡ-Ⓐ]

It's our last game. It'll be a dead rubber.

But from a personal personal point of view, being a lone Englishman in Costa Rica, I'm looking forward to watching it here!

I wonder what the odds are for Australia to get out of their group.

Fair enough. Missed that

 

[Willow]

I look forward to bouncing this thread when we top our group

 

[Albumen]

Why do people think it's a tough group?

Costa Rica are minnows, Uruguay are average and Italy are beatable.

haha

 

[Jesus Gul]

some cracking group games there.....and Iran v Nigeria...

I have tickets for that one

 

[Simster]

BBC - England given tough world cup draw
Go to CNNSI.com - US Get NIGHTMARE Draw
Go to smh.com.au - Socceroos handed terrible draw


Conclusion: there aren't many shìt teams in the WC these days. And those that are, are in France's group.


Incidentally, there have been 19 world cups - SEVEN of them have been won by teams in our group.

Can't wait to see Paulo Wanchope in action against us.

that would be interesting as his last game was in 2008 for them

 

[StonehamPark]

Typical NSC, almighty over-reaction.

I think this will be a cracking group and we've got a fair chance.

I can't wait.

Dont write off a team like Costa Rica.
They will be used to the heat/humidity. Alot of their players play competitive football overseas (though i think only ruiz in a 'top' league) and we all said Algeria would be a walkover in the last tournament....and that went well.

 

[Questions]

Well I'm in Venice for the Italy game. If I've been on the vino I'll doubt I'll even be able to keep awake.

No not at all. Especially if You're half Italian.
Am in Belgium for 2nd game as well.

 

[Return of the Rev]

did we win?

 

[Giraffe]

I can't help but think that Italy will be more than a bit worried. Had they not taken their foot off the gas in their last two qualifying games they would have been seeded. Now they are in a group which many would say they will struggle to get out of.

COME ON ENGLAND!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
