Title: Who will win the world cup?
Post by: TheNightWatchman on June 25, 2006, 03:51:46 pm
Ok this poll will last until the FINAL of the cup... lets see who you think will win!
All teams are put in as from the posting of the poll, (e.g. Holland, Ecuador, Sweden, Mexico are not included but all others are [even Ghana!])
Enjoy


Cumon England!
(by the way I actually think either Germany or Brazil will win the world cup... but I am going for ENGLAND all the way! They're gonna be hungry to knock out Brazil after the Portugal match  8)

Its now or never for England. Svens reign has been building up to this. If they cant do it now, its gonna take a lot of years before England can get this many good players in the squad again, and the current ones are gonna age.

I have a $10 bet on Germany knocking out Argentina in a few days time...  ;)
I thought Argentina would clean up their side of the knockout, but after watching GER vs SWE I changed my mind...

Ronaldo= the world cups highest goal scorer ;D Its so funny watching him this tournament, the skill for his last goal just made me laugh even though it was pretty good.

Yeah... he's really good, but certainly not at his prime anymore.

Nice goal against Ghana! (Also ze Roberto... hehe tricky little flick)

well now England and Brazil are knocked out... there isn't really a team that is capable of beating Germany... so you may be right (also they have home advantage!)

Yeah I agree with you Din...
Germany - 1st
France - 2nd
Portugal - 3rd
Italy - 4th

While I huddle in the corner thinking about you poor England supporters I cant help humming "Viva La France"lol
England need to get a grip and start playing some agressivive football instead of playing to the media. If England had have been playing Ghana I would hate to think of their embarrassment on losing at least 3-0.
I reckon a full Chelsea team would have made England weep. PATHETIC!!!!!
cheers

With 0 votes for Italy, they are the first to fly into the World Cup with a 2-0 win over Germany in ET (!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)

Looks like my prediction has gone out the window... lol

OK I watched the England match and maybe I missed something, because today in the France match the crowd booed him everytime he touched the ball.
Rewind a bit and explain to me why we should hate him please?

it seems that Ronaldo told his team to keep harrassing Rooney, which they did and Rooney reactedby stamping on one of the Portugal players gonads or bollocks, the ref immediately sent him off, as Rooney was going off Ronaldo gave his coach a sly wink, which was caught on camera so everybody twigged what had gone on >:(

Ah, all understood now.

It is true though, an easy way to get rid of Rooney, he really needs to control that temper.

I wonder what Fergie will do now then eh? Since he just came out and said he'd chosen to drop Ruud so that he could play Ronaldo, now all the english are voting to kick out Ronaldo from any premiership team... should be interesting.

Brothels glad Italy in World Cup final

Prostitutes in Berlin say they are glad Italy knocked Germany out of the world cup because Italian fans make the best punters.

And if France play in the BLUE  the Italians will be too knackered to put up a fight.lol

yeh copied it from a more reliable source this time

even though he was obviously provoked, i still cant believe he did that. he basically screwed France for the rest of the match, they were never gonna with at penalties with Barthez.

i hear ronaldo doenst want to come back to Man U now, what an idiot.

Yet after all that Zidane was voted best player. Most votes were cast before half time before the italian said something nice about Zidanes motherand asked for his pacemaker to be restarted.lol. What a way to end his career.
cheers
