Really? The full size ones?

 

I'm there if so.

 

They definitely have them in the one on Gossy High Street.

 

http://www.j-sainsbury.co.uk/index.asp?PageID=415&section=&Year=2010&NewsID=1275 - to prove me point.

 

I'm going to have some fun with this  :snod:

 

Nowt like casually watching a soccer match and whipping out your massive horn.

 

Take it to Sunday league matches next season, and whip

up a frenzy on the touchline.

I can imagine it'd be fun to chase cows around while blasting out a tune on the Vuvuzela like.

The group of death this year has to be group D

 

Australia

Germany

Ghana

Serbia

 

 

 

Germany will win tha easily I think and Serbia to take 2nd spot.

 

Australians are pretty poor and Ghana will miss Essien too much.

 

The germans are no great shakes these days.

 

I keep hearing this, but I don't think their team, as a unit, is any worse than in recent world cups/european championships...

They seem to have some pace as well.

A - Mexico, Uruguay

B - Argentina, Nigeria

C - England, USA

D - Germany, Serbia

E - Holland, Cameroon

F - Italy, Paraguay

G - Brazil, Portugal

H - Spain, Chile

 

Brazil will probably win it. Not the best team they've had on paper, but there's plenty of talent in their squad and Dunga has them more organised than I've seen any Brazil side in a long time.

Cannot wait. I love the World Cup, and it's been eight years since I've had a team to support in it. Saturday is the day for me. Can't wait to watch us on the world stage even if every thing is not to plan. Still think we can grab second place in that group, despite all the problems. Would have felt much better with Mikel and Ike Uche, though.

 

There really isn't a clear favorite, imo. A number a teams could win. Regardless, I am looking forward to taking in sport's greatest spectacle again.

Get excited for this one, Steve McManaman(sp?) (he's a pundit here on ESPN for the WC) has it on "good authority" that Heskey starts Saturday.

 

Oh, joy. Be interesting to see his midfield. Really hope he doesn't put Gerrard on the left and goes with J Cole.

Pretty certain it will be:

 

James

 

Johnson

King

Terry

Cole

 

Lennon

Lampard

Gerrard

Cole

 

Heskey

Rooney

 

Think the only question for the first match is Heskey v. Crouch and the keepers. Will get more interesting once Barry is fit.
