Guest Geordiesned Posted December 3, 2013 Share Posted December 3, 2013 So what time is the draw likely to actually start after all the guff? 4:30? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yorkie Posted December 3, 2013 Share Posted December 3, 2013 So what time is the draw likely to actually start after all the guff? 4:30? Is something that's more universally unwanted, in the entirety of football, than a pre-draw ceremony? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRC Posted December 3, 2013 Share Posted December 3, 2013 Would love it if England got Nigeria. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is something that's more universally unwanted, in the entirety of football, than a pre-draw ceremony? The auld Scottish fella not being able to open the balls in the Champions League draw was painful to watch. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

LucaAltieri Posted December 3, 2013 Share Posted December 3, 2013 Have class during the draw ugh 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. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ketsbaia Posted December 3, 2013 Share Posted December 3, 2013 Every simulation I've done has thrown up some ugly ugly groups, mixing Uruguay and South Korea, Switzerland and Iran, Belgium and Ecuador etc. Ergh! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
WarrenBartonCentrePartin Posted December 3, 2013 Share Posted December 3, 2013 Did it again. England in with Iran. Imagine the BNP/EDL/right-wing bile that will be posted on social media if that actually happened. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

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. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deuce Posted December 4, 2013 Share Posted December 4, 2013 It almost seems inevitable that the U.S. will draw Ghana. And lose to them in spectacular fashion in Game 3. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nobody Posted December 4, 2013 Share Posted December 4, 2013 I'm sure the fact that Platini is French has nowt to do with FIFA all of the sudden ditches their ranking system when choosing which European side should be in pot 2. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spider Jerusalem Posted December 4, 2013 Share Posted December 4, 2013 Yes. In the same way that it didn't make them change the rules for the last qualifiers at the last minute to seed the teams. We've already been told there is no corruption in the game so that's the end of the subject. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flip Posted December 4, 2013 Share Posted December 4, 2013 Don't know if it's been posted as confirmed, but today the ball was confirmed (know there's pictures somewhere in this thread) http://s2.glbimg.com/jQZobPrLwbEZg_ty1Go7TzMUK5k=/0x0:950x600/690x436/s.glbimg.com/es/ge/f/original/2013/12/03/bolabrazuca-copa2014-fifa-2.jpg Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mole_Toonfan Posted December 4, 2013 Share Posted December 4, 2013 Ball has apparently been tested at youth tournaments under different designs so shouldn't be anywhere near as light weight as the one in South Africa was. I like the design as well, very colorful fits in with the theme of the World Cup being in Brazil. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
