Title: Re: WORLD CUP 2010 ( qualiying stages ) Post by: Bazzaboy on November 25, 2007, 04:29:02 PM Decent draw for Scotland. The Dutch obviously favs but we should be capable of 2nd for a playoff.
Title: Re: WORLD CUP 2010 ( qualiying stages ) Post by: celtic on November 25, 2007, 04:30:59 PM The teams in scotland's group are too easy.
We should scrape 4th place tho going on past performances against the 'easy' teams. Title: Re: WORLD CUP 2010 ( qualiying stages ) Post by: Rod Paradise on November 25, 2007, 04:40:41 PM Group 6 Croatia, ENGLAND, Ukraine, Belarus, Kazakhstan, Andorra Draw fixed to keep the England fans away from anywhere breakable ;) Title: Re: WORLD CUP 2010 ( qualiying stages ) Post by: Colchester Kev on November 25, 2007, 04:42:18 PM Group 6 Croatia, ENGLAND, Ukraine, Belarus, Kazakhstan, Andorra Draw fixed to keep the England fans away from anywhere breakable ;) I am already searching for Borat masks for the Kazakhstan game, i will be punting them out to ft skinheads with bulldog tattoos and making a small fortune Title: Re: WORLD CUP 2010 ( qualiying stages ) Post by: steeveg on November 25, 2007, 04:43:38 PM Group 1 Portugal, Sweden, Denmark, Hungary, Albania, Malta Group 2 Greece, Israel, Switzerland, Moldova, Latvia, Luxembourg Group 3 Czech Republic, Poland, NORTHERN IRELAND, Slovakia, Slovenia, San Marino Group 4 Germany, Russia, Finland, WALES, Azerbaijan, Liechtenstein Group 5 Spain, Turkey, Belgium, Bosnia-Herzegovina, Armenia, Estonia Group 6 Croatia, ENGLAND, Ukraine, Belarus, Kazakhstan, Andorra Group 7 France, Romania, Serbia, Lithuania, Austria, Faroe Islands Group 8 Italy, Bulgaria, IRELAND, Cyprus, Georgia, Montenegro Group 9 Holland, SCOTLAND, Norway, FYR Macedonia, Iceland [/quo wondering if a lot of englands away games will kick off at 4pm Title: Re: WORLD CUP 2010 ( qualiying stages ) Post by: AndrewT on November 25, 2007, 04:54:46 PM I've only just noticed that one of the 2nd place finishers won't even make it to a playoff - one team will finish 2nd in their group and be knocked out there and then.
All the home nations have a great chance of finishing at least 2nd (apart from Wales, obviously). Title: Re: WORLD CUP 2010 ( qualiying stages ) Post by: WarBwastard on November 26, 2007, 12:25:34 PM Since when is Kazakhstan in Europe? It has borders with China and Mongolia! 7,000 mile round trip. Can see one or two niggling injuries flaring up amongst the England squad a few days before this fixture.
Title: Re: WORLD CUP 2010 ( qualiying stages ) Post by: boldie on November 26, 2007, 12:45:18 PM Decent draw for Scotland. The Dutch obviously favs but we should be capable of 2nd for a playoff. I just hope Holland sack Van Basten..that way I might get to see some decent footie from our national side and will be able to support them again :)..couldn't believe Holland could get this easy a group though. Title: Re: WORLD CUP 2010 ( qualiying stages ) Post by: kinboshi on November 26, 2007, 02:24:26 PM Since when is Kazakhstan in Europe? It has borders with China and Mongolia! 7,000 mile round trip. Can see one or two niggling injuries flaring up amongst the England squad a few days before this fixture. It's niiiiiiice. I don't understand it either. Put them in the already over-subsribed European group....rather than in the Asian group (where they are actually located). Israel are always in the European group, even for Eurovision. Then again, Australia aren't in Asia either. Maybe they should be in the European group as well? It'll make it easier for a lot of their players in terms of travelling.

It'll make it easier for a lot of their players in terms of travelling. Israel in the Arab group might cause a leetle problem I think.... Safer all round to keep them apart.

Title: Re: WORLD CUP 2010 ( qualiying stages ) Post by: fergus8 on November 26, 2007, 09:16:37 PM is the world cup the 3rd stongest international tourny?
i think euro champs is a better tournament for all round quality, big misses obv brazil and argies, but big plusses are the 10-15 rag nations that are not there champions league is even better than both imo discuss... Title: Re: WORLD CUP 2010 ( qualiying stages ) Post by: steeveg on November 27, 2007, 02:07:01 PM is the world cup the 3rd stongest international tourny? still magic to me as long as england get there, looked better years ago because we didnt know a lot of the new argie or brazil players, nowadays football from all over the world on all the time,i think euro champs is a better tournament for all round quality, big misses obv brazil and argies, but big plusses are the 10-15 rag nations that are not there champions league is even better than both imo discuss... not many players we dont know when world cup starts,in a way its lost a bit of that magic but still look forward to , Title: Re: WORLD CUP 2010 ( qualiying stages ) Post by: boldie on November 27, 2007, 02:28:54 PM I love the world cup...even thogh sometimes I think I don't when it arrives I can't wait for it to start.
