(Bah - only 12 on a poll. If you like one of the other teams, throw it on here anyway - I'll list the more popular teams *grin*)

There's a USA option? Coo!

the expos are going to win it all this year

There sure is. Hopefully they'll do better than in '98

USA - dead last :(

every time i support England, but it has very few chances like always.

Same here but we often make quarters/semis. To be honest I didn't realise the US had qualified again. They'll probably be knocked out pretty quick but the fact thay they've qualified again shows the team must slowly be getting stronger. Just gotta hope it doesn't get too strong as the buggers seem to win a good chunk of every other sport - we don't need them winning football (soccer) tornaments too :)

Italia #1

Liechtenstein...take it to the bank:thumbsup

England has a very good chance this time

My only worry is what time of the morning I have to start drinking beer to watch the games.


Come on England :)

I expect the Lakers to win... so USA

It's commin' home
It's commin' home
It's commin'

Football's commin' home!

It's commin' home
It's commin' home
It's commin'

Football's commin' home!

Everyone seems to know the score
They seen it all before
They just know
They're so sure

That England's gonna throw it away
Gonna blow it away
But I know we can play

Cause I remember

Three Lions on a shirt
Jules Remee' still gleaming
Thirty years of hurt
Never stopped me dreaming....

Gotta have been the best footy record :)

Heheheh

If you guys wanna listen to that, search for:

Baddiel and Skinner - 3 Lions

what about the new song? ant and dec? any good?

Not heard it yet but let's be honest about this - it's Ant and Dec for Christs sake!

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

Not those two fuckwits!

Even though 3 Lions was for Euro 96, I'll be playing that.

I hear Fat Lez is releasing one too. Hopefully that'll get the airplay instead.

I just noticed your sig Tipsy...

Bagpus... Ah, memories :)

The saggy old cloth cat refs I keep making will confuse most non-UK people but I've just sort of re-discovered him and decided that the world will be a far better place if the were more Bagpi (wonder what the plural of Bagpuss is?). No idea whos site it is though but it does the job :)

I'll be going with some Skiiner and Baddiel but mostly with

New Order - world in motion and Vindaloo

Can't beat John Barnes rapping

I can feel my hatred towards the English brewing already.

There was an advert on tv today saying "buy Fifa World Cup 2002 game and win the world cup for England".... And the English wonder why us Scots hate them...

In the paper yesterday there was a story about the new Glasgow Celtic CD which is to raise money for a cancer charity. Woolworths won't be stocking the cd because they say it is "too Scottish". They are however stocking Ant & Dec's English world cup cd in all it's stores in Scotland.

Damn I hate England.

:1orglaugh

Did you hear that the UK Post Office has had to recall their latest stamps with pictures
of English football players on them.
People couldn't figure out which side to spit on.


Q. If you see an English football fan on a bicycle, why should you never swerve to hit him?
A. It could be your bicycle.


Q. What do English football fans and sperm have in common?
A. One in 3,000,000 has a chance of becoming a human being.


Q. What do you have when 100 English football fans are buried up to their necks in sand?
A. Not enough sand.

Q. What's the difference between a dead dog on the road
and a dead English football fan on the road?
A. There are skid marks in front of the dog.

Q. You're trapped in a room with a tiger, a rattlesnake and Jimmy Hill.
You have a gun with two bullets. What do you do?
A. Shoot the Jimmy Hill - twice.


Q. What's the difference between the English and a jet engine?
A. A jet engine eventually stops whining.

I was just gonna post them - thanks mate :thumbsup

Here's a great wee game as well ;)

Who cares. Soccer is for homos

hmm labret

you know the US has the highest % of homo's of any country in the world

Even homos in this country dont like soccer.

Only 40 year old soccer moms, lesbians, and 8 year old girls like soccer in the USA.

And those fruitcakes who love Oasis and Britpop that everyone hates.

i'm too tired now to disagree....

btw labret, death penalty isn't a sport :)

USA has a soccer team? Why? Ive never met anyone that likes it. How could someone expect someone else to sit around and watch grown men kick a ball back and fourth for 4 hours to and have the score end up 1-0.. as it always does... i can barely stand watching hockey, about the same idea, but is alot faster, they have weapons, people occasionally score, and once a game you get to view replays of someone spitting out blood/teeth.

Hide a fucking landmine on the field, at least give us a shot at seeing something of intrest.

Brazil will probably win I guess...
and US team is not bad taking their age into account...

As opposed to a game that lasts for 60 minutes, but takes six hours to play?

:thumbsup

Hey men !
Are you kidding ?

England will not win the worldcup, there's not Beckham (even if he was able to play england will not win)

Brazil has only one or two good players (Ronaldinho Ronaldo (?) Rivaldo)

Who else ?

The right answer is :

Either :

FRANCE

or :

ARGENTINA



Just remeber it...

... hmmm, somehwo I am missing holland on that vote ... what happened?? ... uachahahahaha !!

I think it's gonna be Argentina, France or Italy. With Brazil and England as underdogs

ARGENTINAARGENTINAARGENTINAARGENTINAARGENTINAARGEN TINAARGENTINAARGENTINAARGENTINAARGENTINAARGENTINAA RGENTINAARGENTINAARGENTINAARGENTINAARGENTINAARGENT INAARGENTINAARGENTINAARGENTINAARGENTINA

I think that ARGENTINA will win..

rather watch a monkey fuck a football

"Only 40 year old soccer moms, lesbians, and 8 year old girls like soccer in the USA."

... that´s welknown, so what is your point ??

my vote goes for Argentina... VAMOS!!

As I scanned down the thread I knew that Labret couldnt resist the urge to get sombodies goat(not a party goat either)

without reading his post it probably goes something like this:

Soccer is for fags, dykes, middleage soccer moms, parents who are whimps and wont let ther kids play real sports etc....

Am I close..............

Predictabillity is always comforting...........:)

HAHA

GRID IRON
that sport is so gay!
they call it football :1orglaugh

He could still be in.

Is that why the US team bitched like a busload of junior high girls on a hot day when things went bad for them last time?

The US is not used to finishing dead last in any sport, and it shows.

Their league is still very young though - only six years old.

now that's mean :Graucho

Argentina Italy Germany or France

Semi FINALE

France got bloody lucky last time. Will be interesting to see how they do in their group to start.

June 2nd here I come!

don't you remember you've killed all dutchmen about 60 years ago?
