Optimal strategy - play absolute all out attack, not much defence - risk losing - as losing has big consolations, but if we do win, try to get big confidence boosting one rather than scraped.?
 
If we’re drawing, also remember get a few bookings. Shirts off after goal etc.

or simply see where Colombia finish and look to avoid them?

or just win and don't try to game it?

Do it the hard way and smash everyone!

Most of the bets placed so far seem more like hopeful punts rather than value spots

I think dodge Colombia looks optimal, if that’s the easier side that’s a bonus of course. Obviously they have very little control over ‘deliberately’ winning. The widespread 15/2 from 20’s after struggling against Tunisia and looking great against Panama really is laughable

It sounds good but being really sh1t at football relative to their likely opponents might cause a problem or two.

I can't, sadly, I moderate the forum

I am asking you to post without trying to wind up people with other views to yours

just because they have a different view does not mean they are a pussy or a snowflake or lack a set of balls

less confrontational please

this is not the first time this has been requested either

Ok I will, but what are you going to do the next time people are being called thicko’s/dumb or whatever on the politics thread? If you dont do something about that when that happens its hardly reasonable to expect people to turn the other cheek is it?

not aware that anyone is being called thick or dumb on the politics thread, or not for quite some time anyway

you refer to it a lot, clearly sensitive about it

if you see examples of it you can show them to a mod

in the meantime please don't call people pussy etc

thanks

If we win or draw we are on same side of draw as:

Uruguay, Portugal, France, Argentina, Brazil, Mexico

If we lose tomorrow or draw and get loads of yellow cards:

Switzerland, Sweden,then Croatia, Denmark, Spain & Russia



Thought long and hard about this and feel he should pick all the second string, play it straight and see what happens. If this doesn't work get the keeper to chuck a couple in. I don't thin were that good. Had some great moments against Panama but the football was average

We've beaten two bunches of trees and suddenly the whole nation is feeling it. So com. As soon as we face anyone half decent, we're out.

Proudly got the red and white flag hanging out the window though and an 'andkerchief on me 'ead.

Running up a score against Panama wasn’t particularly bright. Keeping the draw onside would have been massive. It’s pretty hard to play to lose if your opponents don’t want to win.

There has to be something seriously amiss with the system if, in a World Cup, a Team can consider deliberately losing or getting multi players booked to gain an advantage.

Surely there is a better way in the event of equal standings?
