Narnia Posted June 1, 2010 Share Posted June 1, 2010 I've an idea JTT that FIFA rules dictate there are 3 goalies in the squad. Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/10655-the-official-2010-world-cup-thread/page/6/#findComment-328786 Share on other sites More sharing options...

matthew123 Posted June 1, 2010 Share Posted June 1, 2010 It used to be the case a WC was a maximum of 22 players and I believe it was extended to 23 to ensure teams took 3 goalkeepers as if memory serves me correct there were occasions when only 2 goalkeepers were taken on 22 squad basis. Perhaps as part of the squad increase FIFA made it a rule of at least 3 goalkeepers.

'bout now Posted June 2, 2010 Share Posted June 2, 2010 Just noticed that England flew out on Virgin Atlantic, rather than BA. Apart from the irony in the airline name, a massive blow for our supposed national carrier. well done Derek Simpson you must be proud.

SimonM Posted June 2, 2010 Share Posted June 2, 2010 I'd choose Virgin Atlantic over BA *anytime* Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/10655-the-official-2010-world-cup-thread/page/6/#findComment-329121 Share on other sites More sharing options...

'bout now Posted June 3, 2010 Share Posted June 3, 2010 Oh I would too Simon. Just seems wrong to see an England team not on a BA flight with Pilot doing thumbs up out the window.

ratty Posted June 3, 2010 Share Posted June 3, 2010 BA are on strike aren't they?Pity they could not have tossed Terry, Ferdinand, Gerrard, A Cole, Lampard, and Defoe out over the sea tbh. Odious fooks.Not sure how I can support England when they have so many players I despise as people. Anyone else having this dilemma?

SeanMacGabhann Posted June 3, 2010 Share Posted June 3, 2010 Absolutely ratty. I literally cannot look at England's Brave John Terry without wanting to hit something. All of teh Chelsea mob to be fair (apart from Joe Cole maybe) Nothing to do with them being English or Chelsea - just odious people. BUt if I forget about them and focus on the likes of David James I feel all better Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/10655-the-official-2010-world-cup-thread/page/6/#findComment-329142 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keef Posted June 3, 2010 Share Posted June 3, 2010 Agree regarding Terry, he's a nasty c**t, if youll excuse my language.I like Joe Cole, and to be honest, I've not got too much against Lampard.Not a fan of Defoe.

DJKillaQueen Posted June 3, 2010 Share Posted June 3, 2010 I'm glad Heskey is going. Still think Crouch is over-rated but who do we send in his place? And pleeeease, don't let Lampard take any penalities.

kpc Posted June 3, 2010 Share Posted June 3, 2010 So, do squad numbers equate to the starting line up? Will James, Lennon, Joe Cole and Crouch start above Hart/Green, Barry, Milner and Heskey. Adventutous if Capello goes down this route.

ratty Posted June 4, 2010 Share Posted June 4, 2010 So, with a week to go my prediction for England is an early big player injury and a whimper of a defeat in the quarter final. Brazil to win!

kpc Posted June 4, 2010 Share Posted June 4, 2010 At least he made it as far as training. David James missed training blaming the 11 hour flight for a knee problem.Still, wouldn't be England without a few scare stories.
