Ok - so Saturday is going to be epic, England vs USA in the World Cup - last time England lost to the USA in a competitive World Cup Game was 1950 - can you do it again?

Where are you all watching the game?

We've booked out a huge bar, opening at 8:30am serving Bacon and Eggs (for the English Fans) and Breakfat taco's for the americans....   I'm planning on getting on it early doors and having a huge all day session...

Prediction:

England 3 - USA 0

make your predictions, then come back here after the event to claim / shame.... 

I'm worried by our (england's) lack of ability to win opening games at big tournaments thus i fear a draw... but not losing to America... I wouldn't be able to live with myself if we lost... so... all aboard the Hype train!

Fuck Germany. They should have changed it to a country "mostly agricultural in nature" after WWII like Churchill wanted to.

That would of been to keep them out of power.  Churchill wanted the future of politics to be ruled by industrial giants and land to be more of a barganing chip in politics.

Of course that would have been to keep them out of power, they started WWI and WWII they don't deserve any power.

I really hope USA wins. But without Davies for spark up top its going to be really tough. I believe its going to be a low scoring game considering USA's defense and goal keeping is pretty top notch. However, England is better team all around and I bet they will win 2-1.

Now its time for me to decide to watch the game live or go to gym trampolines in vermont.

And you know, the treaty of versielles didnt exactly help out the whole prevent war thing, it was inevidtable that germany would want to reabsorb countries that used to be a part of it.

Certanly not justify, but I mean what happened was bound to happen, but that doesn't make it okay. Plus Italy's and teh USSR and japan was unnecessary, but teh german invasion of austria was going  to happen.

The 2002 World Cup put Japan on the map. After the WC, loads of the players were picked up by Euro teams.


But also 3-0 England

What happened was not bound to happen. It only happened because of appeasement. England (and the US, but mostly England) should have gone over there and stamped out the problem when they had the chance like Churchill wanted to.

Yeah, except it started out just being that germany wanted their country back, austrians still considered themselves germans for the most part, if it werent for the treaty of versailles trying to divide germany, it could of been avoided, they watned their country to be whole again

If we've figured out our line-up, we might pull it off.


Otherwise i expect we'll play a strong first half, but suck wind to lose it in the second.

Chill the flame war, it's England vs. USA.
Ze Germans have nothing to do with it.

2-0 England.

Love the Heskey banter
Senegal beat then world champions France in 2002, anything is possible - in the same vein, beating Spain doesn't make you awesome.
And we toured the US a few years back and dommed you with weak sides, should put you away with the first choice XI

Cameroon is a country

Ivory Coast is a country

Gold Coast is near Sydney, Australia

As for your previous comments -

Denmark have a very good squad.... Bentler up front is an awesome striker, plays for Arsenal and has come out and publically said he wants to run riot at the world cup... they have won the european championship and are always solid.

Japan.... are industrious.... and can grind out results. They are very organized..... but, have little in the way of firepower up front.

and bump - keep this fucker up top.... England v Usa is looming... the world cup kicks off in a few hrs...

bring it!

Yeah I fucked up with the Gold Coast company.

The Ivory Coast is a region in Africa though... or what is used to describe a region I thought.

Not a region... it's like saying California can play in the world cup!??

Africa is a continent.... do we need to do elementary geography here?

I'll be in Bolivia watching with a ton of English people wearing my very southern America trucker hat. I think England will nick it 2 to 1 though, they've got a team of winners this time around.

Cote D'Ivoire will get out of that group I think, especially if Drogba is playing.

LOL at Panda being dumber than a fifth grader.

I really hope England wins. The amount of smug coming from a US victory would have a worse impact on the environment than the BP oil spill.

Predicting 3-1 for England.

You can't count America out though, they have certainly beaten better teams than England recently.  I heard Obama might make an appearance.  I noticed Joe Biden sitting next to Mandela at the S. Africa vs Mexico game today.
