World Cup bets

[sasguru]

1. England
2. Brazil

Hope springs eternal in the human breast.

Enlgands chances are inversely proportinaly to the media hype, the more the media hypes England into being convinced they will win , the more certain they will lose.

Something to do with the collective unconciousness.

I would say that Germany will make it to the final in a boring plodding way,who know it might be an Iran Germany final, notwithstanding WW3.

Wonder what odds you would get on the above ?

Hmmm. The US has qualified, so there is a very small chance of the US team playing Iran at both football and war, at the same time. I wonder if there's a precedent ...

Woudnt it be a lot better if they just settled it over a footie match than having a War ?

They played against each other in the last world cup.

Well heres a pic of how it was with the US and Iranian fans last time, damn these politicians.

As an Iranian chap at my work mentioned, Its not people who wage wars, its Governments.

And his town was bombed heavily by Saddam.

This is exciting isn't it - Football is the game of kings and worth every penny - these footballers are natural leaders and role models for all our children. Just one question - why does the team in black only ever get one player, and why does he always look like Benny Hill ?

[Bagpuss]

Germany will win it.

[sasguru]

Germany will win it.

I reckon we'll thrash Germany at home ....they're crap.
