Parkdrive Posted June 21, 2014 Share Posted June 21, 2014 Lineker wearing an Italy shirt last night was cringe worthy. Not sure what was going through his mind but it's wrong on every level.

If there was it's a shame as however much you might like a particular result to happen, it's disrespectful to Costa Rica and not in line with how I view the BEEB as being fairminded.

Otta Posted June 21, 2014 Share Posted June 21, 2014 I'm not feeling too gloomy about England. We tried some youth, and saw some promise. Plus without Messi Argentina would surely be joinging us at the airport, and Brazil aren't exactly storming it.Shame to see France doing so well, but you can't have everything.All in all it's a very enjoyable WC so far.Hope England go out with some pride on Tuesday...

Jah Lush Posted June 22, 2014 Share Posted June 22, 2014 Sorry if you've heard this before but I had to share this if you haven't.Neymar goes into the Brazilian changing room to find all his team mates looking a bit glum."What's up?" he asks."Well, we're having trouble getting motivated for this game. We know it's important but it's only England. They're sh*t and we can't be bothered".Neymar looks at them and says "Well, I reckon I can beat them by myself, you lads go down the pub." (he says in Portuguese).So Neymar goes out to play England by himself and the rest of the Brazilian team go off for a few beers. After a few pints they wonder how the game is going, so get the landlord to put the TV on. A big cheer goes up as the screen shows"Brazil 1 (Neymar 10 minutes) - England 0 "He is beating England all by himself! Anyway, a few more beers later and the game is forgotten until someone remembers "It must be full time now, let's see how he got on" They put the TV on."Result from the Estadio Do Maracana : Brazil 1(Neymar 10 minutes) - England 1 (Rooney 89 minutes)."They can't believe it, he has single handedly got a draw against England!! They rush back to the Stadium to congratulate him. They find him in the dressing room, still in his gear, sat with his head in his hands.He refuses to look at them. "I've let you down, I've let you down""Don't be stupid, you got a draw against England, all by yourself. And they only scored at the very very end!""No, No, I have, I've let you down!. I got sent off after 12 minutes Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/44749-the-2014-world-cup-thread/page/15/#findComment-758287 Share on other sites More sharing options...
aquarius moon Posted June 22, 2014 Share Posted June 22, 2014 Quite funny JL.

aquarius moon Posted June 22, 2014 Share Posted June 22, 2014 I've given my predictions for final (will probably be wrong!)What are everybody else's predictions for final based on games so far?

Jah Lush Posted June 23, 2014 Share Posted June 23, 2014 To be honest I haven't a clue. At the start I thought Brazil v Argentina and I'll stick with that but anything could happen at this World Cup as has proved so far. France are looking a good bet though. Had the USA to win 2-1 tonight and then Portugal equalise with seconds to go. Bah!

aquarius moon Posted June 23, 2014 Share Posted June 23, 2014 I had Portugal to win 2-1.Just shows. Different opinions, both wrong. Nobody has a clue really!

titch juicy Posted June 23, 2014 Share Posted June 23, 2014 if you've chosen Belgium for the final based on the games so far, you must know something we don't!I've not looked how it could work out from each side of the draw, but if possible i could see a Germany vs Brazil or Argentina final.However; based on the way they've been playing, we'd be foolish to write off Chile.Wouldn't it be brilliant if there was a new winner.

david_carnell Posted June 23, 2014 Share Posted June 23, 2014 Colombia look a handful. Agree about Chile.None of the Euro teams seems up to the task except the Dutch.

Help-Ma-Boab Posted June 23, 2014 Share Posted June 23, 2014 Sorry to see england not progress. the atmosphere and feelgood factor is great when they are in and progressing. this brought a wry smile this morning:My wife said to me this week: "Whenever a World Cup game is on, let's eat something to do with the competing team for dinner that night." When the Mexico game was on, we had burritos. When Spain played we had paella.The Japan game, we had noodles. USA night, we had burgers. Italy, we had pizza. Tuesday is England, so we're going out...

Before tournament I thought Argentina & Brazil faves but quite fancied Chile as an outside bet - haven't changed my mind on Chile but don't think the other two are that special. Maybe Chile to win group and eventually meet Costa Rica in QF with Dutch putting out Brazil.
