There has been what 50 odd games so far and loads of red cards, if it was a normal league season you dont see that much cards - its only coz its the WC the refs are flashing reds everywhere

Gerd Mullar and Ronaldo are the all time top WC scorers with 14 each

Another red card! I wouldnt say it was a straight red, a def yellow and a last warning.

Glad i could assist you's! I think Argentina deserve to be in the group who have won it 3 times!! Did yous also know Germany have lost the most finals - 4 losses! They have been in 7 finals in total!

Quite a good game despite 0-0 scoreline.

The 17 previous WC's has produced only 7 winners. Uruguay x2, Italy x3, Brazil x5, Germany x3, England x1, Argentina x2, France x1. If Italy, Brazil and France win there 2nd round games then the last 8 will be made up of Switz or Ukraine plus all the previous world cup winners minus Uruguay. Could make for a very interesting last 8 with all the big boys in there, even if not then Portugal or Spain could be there in attempt to join the elite club.

I just stuck fiver on Del Piero at 8/1

Taxi for Gav

Who to score first???

Im glad to see your well up to scratch in knowing what your duties are!!

I dont think it would be to hard to come up with something ;)

Jeez, lucky i just read that, i was away to phone up Ladbrokes and put him on as first scorer at 7/1. Not sure what to bet on in this one, i have a feeling Oz will nick it but im not prepared to part cash over it.

Arsenal P38 W28 D10 L0 Pts 94 Man Utd P38 W24 D12 L2 Pts 84 Liverpool P38 W22 D13 L5 Pts 79 West Ham P38 W21 D13 L6 Pts 76 ---------------------------------- Sounds good mate

Could be a good game in the making tonight. Italy will fancy there chances of a semi final place coz they get Ukraine or Switz if they pass Oz. But Oz have had the best team spirit ive seen in the tournament so far and are playing with confidence. A shock could be on the cards here: Italy 1-2 Australia

I should have elaborated a bit more. The reason id like to take him for scottish reasons is because I think UEFA are to bring back a foreign rule? (maybe not?) And it would be wise to bring in the better ones we could get.

Remember and dont come back then Can someone post the table, i havent been on sonce the day i registerred so have forgot my password.

You'll need to hybernate on wed and thurs. What we going to do when it finishes!!! 3 weeks with no footy until the season starts - Im def going on holiday then!

When I go to log in at work my PC remembers me and all i have to do it type the first letter of my username and then its just press log in. When at home on my laptop i have to type the full username and password - how come and how do you get the PC to remember me? The first time you type it in it gives you an option if windows wants to remember you but i did tick this and i still have to type everything in. Not a major problem but i was just curious!

Seems a very under-rated player! Never knew Souness left Liverpool so early (1984)! But seemed like a carbon copy replacement bar the reputation.

A wee bit before my time also but i knew he was a teddy bear, cant remember how i knew though, think it was off a interview with the BBC a few years back.

And its only 1 at the moment coz Wembley isnt finished and by the looks of things will have to be knocked down and started again. Surely St James Pk could be at least 4star

Another reason id take him is he is scottish.

Does someone want to explain to me what he does? I thought he was Sven's no.2 but he hasnt been seen at any game and its mclaren who is No.2 just now!!!?????

Also, the commentator over here who is from Channel 5 (dont know how we manage to get him) made a good point in the difference in sides. England are on 300,000 GBP a man to wn the cup while Equador were on 8,000 GBP a man and a heard of animals. Also Rooneys bird went out and splashed 177,000 GBP on a new car for him as a good luck present whereas De La Cruz sents 3000 GBP of his wages every Week over to a local charity in Equador. He then made a funny comment, he said Equador is high in altitude, and speaking of altitude - there's peter Crouch warming up

They are too thats the scary thing. They have only came up against 1 decent side in Sweden and drew with them, now they have Portugal minus there midfield. I was hoping Holland would nick an equaliser then a winner coz they had more players to play england. No doubt a fully fit Portugal or Holland would of played England off the park. The 2nd half was good to watch but for the wrong reasons. Im gutted Deco got sent off and he would of been the difference v England. But in Simao, Tiago, Maniche, Figo, Pauleta and hopefully Ronaldo, they could still have enough.
