what are Saudia Arabia and other week contries doing in the world cup
 

Hey Football-MANIACs

Please explaine why FIFA allows contries like saudia arabia, china, usa and costa rica to participate in the world cup.

they are simply not ready for this level yet.

germany - saudia arabia 8-0 ... embarrassing

the allocation of the above contries are made at the expence of graet football nations like holland and czech rep..

who do you think are going to win the world cup (look out for DENMARK)

best regards

ummm superbowl was january


duh!

you americans never learn. !!!

well we know you europeans havent learn to master MS Paint yet, so i guess we are even?

Why in the world are foreigners so in love with soccer anyway?!?!? I'll never understand that one.

its the best sport in the world.
I'm saying this above Hockey which is Canada's sport. Canada has no team so I'm cheering for China & England.

umm we let them in becasue they qualified, eg got here on merit.

Soccer is terribly boring. I see why people riot at soccer games though. They get bored with watching the game and decide to beat the shit out of the guy next to them for a little excitement. In the US, we sleep to celebrate the world cup.

xxxChamp - Wait until the teams play before you say they shouldn't compete.
China, USA, Costa Rica haven't had a single game so far so don't judge them.

Saudi Arabia might be the worst of the 4 you mentioned....I'm looking forward to seeing the American team to lose though.:winkwink:

Where the fuck is the skill in soccer. Its all hope and pray.

A bunch of haphazard slapdicks, running around field in no discernable pattern, kicking the ball back and forth and back and forth and back and forth... hoping and praying that when somehow the ball ends up down around the goal area that someone happens to kick it in.

And you have to watch all that terribly boring shit for a score of 1-0.

So gay.

xxxChamp
These nations are in for two reasons, one's political the other is financial.

The boss of FIFA needs the votes of these little countries and they need the money from the extra TV audiences.

Sorry mate, but welcome to the REAL world.

yes we are even... no bad feelings

im going to use the banner at a "banner exchance program" ... a friend of mine told me that it is almost twice a efficient as pro banner... seriously! so why not try it ?

by the way ... it was made with MS paint ... not bad

lars petersen

bahahaha@xxxchamps banner... I seriously hope thats a joke and not an attempt at trying to be good...

Those countries are there because they QUALIFIED! Unlike The Netherlands....

They are there cuz they deserve to be there.. If you knew a bit about Futbol, you would have some kind of idea of what is going on.

And this will be the first world cup where a country from a foreign continent wins it all. - So far whenver the cup has been played in America and American team has won and whenever it's been in Europe a European nation won, Asia has no chance :)

Oh by the way, Denmark is not gonna do shit! They won the only game they could win. France and Senegal r gonna tear them up.

They're doing there the same thing as people not visited links in my signature doing on GFY... :1orglaugh :1orglaugh :1orglaugh

perhaps I should post my banner as a new topic on this board.

at least people gets a good laugh when they visit my site plus lots of free porn

"These nations are in for two reasons, one's political the other is financial". (i agree with charly) but the world cup should be about GREAT FOOTBALL.

Belgium, czech, netherland, scotland, austria, greece, russia and norway plus some other european contries would all be able to qualify in Asia og north america.

the contries i mentioned (topic starter) are not going to make any further in the cup

uhm Australia.

Sengal going to win ..

senegal are a good team
normal their coach is french and they all play in france..

more seriously they have a hell of a goal keeper ( playing in monaco)...

france is gonna wake up and kick everyones ass ...
they are tired coz they played too many games before the world cup...

that's the funniest fucking banner ever. hahaha.

yeah, it's not as exciting as the man-o-man american football game where you can at least kick the hell out of someone's teeth, step with both legs on his forehead or try to stick the ball up his shitter.

not to mention the extremely exciting game of baseball where all depends on how often you can hit a ball with a stick. my, oh, my.

it's a sport, damn it. you don't like it - you don't watch it.

umm charly u fucking retard, its simpel they qualified eg they are the best in there qualifying groups

Uh yeah, der. What kind of a tard thread is this? This is the World Cup FINALS...meaning all the teams beat all the other teams in their brackets to get there.

Although one could speak to the weighting of brackets.

so wait a minute xxxChamp u reckon we should elect someone like urself to decide who the best teams are in the world and they should then be in the world cup? get real.

Who would have thought senegal would have beaten france? u need the suprises in the world cup and the "other lesser countries" need a chance to develop and become better, they rightfulyl qualified in there groups which in some cases included brazil and argentina.

Every team thats at the WC is there on credit, agreed some groups are easier, but thats the way it is, for example Italy have an easier run in this world cup to get to the final, with ur suggestion it will then mean they "dont deserve to be there" etc etc.

what a crock of shit.

Hmmm.. let me tell you how big soccer is in Mexico:

8 years ago, when the World Cup was held in the US... the games were scheduled in the morning and early afternoon.. when people were working.. well, everywhere.. from small.. to big companies (such as Ford, Sony, General Electric and so on) made the expected.. they gave 2 hour breaks.. and installed TVs.. and BIG screens (if they could afford it) so their workers could watch the national team play ;)

Classes in Colleges, High Schools and Elementary Schools were interrupted so students could watch the national team play :)

The streets are empty whenever the national team plays :)

WTF are germany doing here though? thats my question, now they are shit. :1orglaugh

well congratulations on the 1-0 win, croatia so shit though.

I'm not much of a soccer fan, but wasn't the last World Cup in France?

I've totaly no idea who is going to win the world-cup series.....


but it's very stupid that countries like china, costa rica, S-A and more like those are in the world cup.....

it would be a better idea when the top40 of the Fifa ranking would play there! then you really have al the best countries at the tournament, becease countries like china is there just to play 3 games, hoping they can score 1 goal en then they will go home....

The top 40 idea sounds nice, but considering that all but 2 of the current teams are already in the top 40 (save Senegal and China), and one of the two that isn't just beat the #1 ranked FIFA team, it's hard to argue with the current sytem.

yeah, I just edited.. I realized when I hit the "submit reply" buttom.. hehe.. you can't blame me for the mistake. I stayed up watching the Mexico vs. Croatia game.. now I'm going to bed with a smile from ear to ear :thumbsup

and thanks Darren, I hope they'll do well against Ecuador.. if they do, the game against Italy won't be so important (they won't have the pressure to do well).

That's a strange ranking system.. I'm mexican.. and I don't know how Mexico ended ranked number 7, above Spain, Germany, England, Nigeria and others!! :1orglaugh

Fifa World Ranking

think about ur statement, we should allow the top40 ranked in fifa list to go to worldcup. How do you think that list gets generated? On the performance of the teams in the big tournaments, therefore we would have the same 40 teams every year because the others would never play in a big tournamenet. Good idea sid. The way it is done at the moment is the best. China etc may go home after 3 games, as many said senegal might, but now senegal might go through, republic ireland might, and for these countries and them players it means a MASSIVE amount, as it does to me when england win.

U cant just say "only allow what we consider the best to play" because how do you think "the best" became the best? At one point they were crap as well.

wake up and smell the earl gray tea.

you get ranked by the amount of played games!

lets say you are going to play a game. if you lose you get 10 points, if the game ends in a draw you get 15 point and if you win you get 20 points.....

that is how it works (only the amount of points will be different)

also, the teams in south america are not as good as in europe, but you get as much points as us....

so a game holland against ecuador is for the fifa the same as holland against france! when holland wins both games they get 40 points, but it is easier to win from ecuador then to win from france.......


so, is that fair.........? i don't think so!

well, all the games deliver points to the teams! not only the tournaments!!!

and, why do you have with ice-hockey an A-tournament and a B-tournament......??

the team to end last of the a tournament will lose its place end the winner of b will be promoted!

Be prepered to feel the blade of Argentina this year... I think we are gonna kick some ass.
:-)

Batigol!

your wrong.

hopefully after fridays game and not b4

Hemmingway said there are only three sports: auto racing, mountian climbing and bull fighting. All the rest are just games.

So I'm the retard, did you not think beyond the "They qualified" answer?

They never use to qualify. But as I said the boss of FIFA needs more votes and money. So he rigs the qualifications so these countries can qualify.

Sorry for having to explain the absolutely obvious but not everyone is so quick. Hey Darren be careful who you call a retard, don't leave yourself so open for an obvious reply that makes you look more foolish than you are.:321GFY

Charly Charly, u make me laugh

"So he rigs the qualifications so these countries can qualify. "


ahh right, so he tells teams to lose matches? he made holland not qualify because they were not going to vote for him? explain and give me some evidence at least or hypotheses.

I suppose he can RIG the balls which are drawn out of the bag of teams on TV? every time in the world should have a chance to play in the world cup and those that legitametly qualify, do do.

Someone is gonna have to clarify this for me 'cause I've just woken up and things are hazy. Don't the groups get selected by balls from a bag or am I just thinking of the FA cup?

Either way Charly's statement has gotta be the funniest on here. If you really believe that you need a major relaity check.

Tipsy ur right bro, maybe he should go back to baseball or something.

I would still like to here is oppinion on this though and HOW he concludes that everything is rigged?

Also charly what team is "rigged" to win the worldcup? I want to have a bet on it.

The WORLD CHAMPIONS ...

http://dbu.dk/images/billeder/action...20400/sejr.jpg

is that who is "fixed" to win it.

tks

So let's make it clear for those kids.

The qualifying group is so weak that the best country in the group are countries like saudia arabia, china, and costa rica. Any European side can beat these, save Luxumburg and San Marino.

It never used to be like this. But since it has become political and finacial, these qualification groups have produced these "qualifiers"

It cannot be purely financial as the viewing audience for Holland V Czech is always going to be more than these lesser football nations.

Yes they get pulled out of a bag, but who controls what nations go into the bag? If it was not so do you think they would be holding the Worl Cup in Japan & Korea?

Is it getting clearer to the younger members of the board?

:winkwink:

They qualified idiot.
