Well the World Cup draw has been done tonight and England got a great draw in my opinion. We should win the group easily and I expect USA to join us by grabbing 2nd in the group. What does everyone think of the draw? Are you happy with your country's draw? (Russians,Swedes,Scots need not answer :-)
Group G looks a differcult one for sure and the hosts South Africa's group won't be easy to call. Other than that I think its pretty straightforward and I expect all the top seeded countrys except maybe South Africa to go through.
Who's going to win it? I'm actually going to give everyone a good laugh now and tip Argentina. They have been totally shit in qualifying and manager Maradona hasn't got a clue what he's doing. But they have great players and will be a decent price and are lucky cheating bastards so thats where the Longy pennies are going. For a very remote outside tip, it might be worth putting a couple of quid on Chile too. They'll be a massive price but they'll get through the group stages then knock-out Portugal or the Ivory Coast. Just you watch em!
As for England well after winning the group and beating probably Australia,we'll come up against either France or Mexico. No doubt,we'll get knocked on penaltys either in the last 8 or semi finals. Of course I hope we win it but deep down I know we won't.

I think we can pass togheter with France mate, but with much effort cause Uruguay are hard to beat! Your group seems much straightforward passing your team and USA. In spite of the bad results lately, Argentina has the pass easy. H group is the more even I can't say which ones going to pass. Maybe Spain and Switzerland...I rather bet to win Brazil instead of Argentina mate.
I think Mexico will go through okay (after getting the shit kicked out of them by 9 man Uruquay lol) Most people will go for Spain or Brazil but if they either doesn't win their group then they will be playing each other in the last 16. Hopefully that will happen!
as the irish got cheated out of their place ill be supporting my wifes country which is spain.i just hope the french fall at the first hurdle.i think in your group im really looking forward to your game against the yanks as i think that will be the best in that group.england to make the semi finals but get beaten by spain who then get beaten in the final by germany.
on an unrelated topic 'the rich kids' are reforming for a one off show in london in january with support from t.v smith,viv albertine and carbon/silicon!!
hehe, does you that say because our group intersects with your group at the eighth-finals? ;) OK bro', but under the condition that you destroy Americans! Sorry for my english, I hope you understand me :)
After the farce of the playoffs its tainted it a bit in my eyes, i mean first off the playoffs are a free for all but when fifa see some high profile countries in playoff places they think,"hang on a mo, we better seed this so the big teams get through, don`t want another world cup like the other one when south korea got so far!" How do you think chelski will do in the new year when you lose the spine of your team to the african nations cup?
Hi gobshyte. I hope the French lose all their games and go out too. The Irish didnt have "the luck of the Irish" in that game for sure. However I thought the Irish FA were having a laugh asking to be the "33rd" team. Imagine the can of worms that would of opened up? Nice one about the Rich Kids. Should be a cracking gig with C/S and TV Smith on the bill.
Hi Cheeroky. Yes we might be playing you if you come 2nd and we win our group or vice versa. We have history with Germans in Tournament football and since 1966 its been almost all bad. I don't want to play them!
Hi Corbypunk. Yep seeding those playoffs was wrong but I had a feeling that would happen as soon as Portugal and France were struggling.
As for Chelsea,we'll be okay I hope. The fixture list during the ANC was been very kind to us (on paper anyway)
Cheers for the comments lads
I just hope the most stupid man on the planet, Martin Hansson, won't make it to the World Cup.
Yes, we have to live with him every other saturaday. Every year.
And trust me, not one single football fan in Sweden like him, except for the Swedish FA who send him on international duty.
The worst ref ever, a long long time before you know what.
Robert - Stockholm
He can't be than a certain Norwegien ref can he Robert? You know the one.
Don't take the USA too lightly. We have had some pretty good upsets in the qualifying rounds. Should be a great match Longy. U-S-A!!!
I think the Yanks will be our hardest game Ken but I can't see us not winning it. Alot of your players play in our League and although they work hard,they ain't exactly top quality. We'll be ready for ya!
We shall see. Landon Donovan will be the scoring machine that he is here! It will be fun watching
I thought he was a singer!
If there are any problems in the group stage I think the people of Britain should demand that the players are put on preformance related pay. There can be no excuses!
I'll have to correct you there Nuzz. You mean the people of ENGLAND!
Yeah, I sit corrected.
I suppose we'll all have to put up with this English twattery until they bugger up yet again and go out.
