Don't forget the weather. And female fans.

Don't worry, your presence (or lack of) won't change your draw, or your getting knocked out of the group stages with 1 point. We've never had less than four points in the group stage in the last four World Cups. ...So yeah, I guess we're losing all three this time. I stand corrected. As every Newcastle fan knows; nothing predicts future success quite like your performance over the previous 20 years.

We'll batter them 0-1.

Apparently the mackems are looking at this as an opportunity to make their displeasure known. Small time fucks. http://www.bishopafc.com/news/an-evening-with-premier-league-referee-kevin-friend/

Do you think he learned that from Shearer or Kluivert?

8 more years!

Andros Townsend.

He must've made one hell of an impression at Freiburg. I'd have had him ahead of Ibra too.

Not even sure why they bother letting the African teams in, tbh. Maybe let 3 of them in and give two spots to more developed footballing nations. Maybe an extra Asian team and another from South America or CONCACAF. Bring the standard up.

Nope. English. Lived in Italy for a bit. Now live in the US.

When did this become the "not attending the World Cup" thread? They didn't make the cut, let's hear no more about them. Wasters.

He's not even the best Andy Townsend.

If they had any sense they'd stream the games live, in high quality, on youtube or something. Get the exposure that way.

Haven't you made enough predictions for one week?

England with very little penetration. When they have managed to break behind the German line, Germany have recovered very well. Every attack we have now there are 6 Germans between our forwards and the goal. We've got decent players, just no magic to open up organised sides like this.

Danny Simpson. Ryan Taylor.

Ashley Cole is having a 'mare.

Ashley Cole, the first touch of a Titus rapist.

Jones and Altidore did absolutely nothing last time to deserve starting today.

Goal AND an assist against Italy.

I think you're off the hook. You can't be held up for a public Giggsing when they couldn't be bothered to post it in the correct thread.

Shit.
