    Damned right it's not all doom and gloom - my home nation aren't playing til later on
    Madness, as you know, is a lot like gravity. All it takes is a little push.

    Actually, I hope they do quite well (but not TOO well) as I am the Chairman of a British Legion Club and we could do with the money that a horde of slavering ********s would spend over the bar whilst watching their team on the big screen....
    Alcohol IS the answer, but I forget the question...

    Until the penalties.

    If Carlsberg did penalties they wouldn't feature England.

    It's some small consolation to watch England get humiliated in a tournament we weren't even good enough to get into.

    He packed in the BBC. It'll be Shearer, Hansen, O'Neill and Strachan.

    I've been worried since Capello was appointed that they might just go and win it. They've got good enough players to do it.

    I agree, but Brazil are looking extremely strong and Spain too. Wouldnt be surprised to see one of the African teams go a long way too, maybe Ivory Coast?

    I think England will do much better than recently, but I just can't see them winning it yet.

    But they don't always walk through qualifying like they just have. The manager seems to have sorted them out. If they get a favourable draw I think they could win it.

    DBS - you're nearly as bad as Macar who starts Scotland threads on the Sunderland RTG boards.

    And you want to see some of the replies he gets on there, certainly not as nice as the hibs.netters!!

    I do think they have a better organised unit compared to other years but think it will be same old England when the hit the big stage. Being played in the African heat wont help either.

    I have a feeling for once in they're spawny lives they'll get a hard draw...they're due one!

    I wouldn't bank on that one if I were you - it will be winter in South Africa and pleasantly mild, for the most part.

    What is your rationale for suggesting a) England are spawny and b) they're due a hard draw?

    Croatia - Ukraine - Belarus - Kazakhstan - Andorra.

    Apart from maybe Croatia you would've expected England to have beaten those teams at home and away. The teams in bold they have yet to play and maybe the Ukranians will bring them back down to earth.

    England failed to beat France, Spain and Holland in friendlies so they have (apart from qualified) as far as I am concerned done nothing yet.

    Scotland not being in South Africa is bad enough but now everytime I turn on Sky Sports it will be about Capello and the World Cup Champions elect.

    England have the players to win the World Cup.

    Players like Terry, Rooney, Lampard, Ferdinand and Cole have featured in the last 2 Champions League Finals, it would be silly to just assume that 'it's England, they will lose to somecunt on penalties.'

    Mon the Brazilians.
    Everyone loves a Brazilian.

    England 5 -1 Croatia

    Ok, I don't have any English blood in me in fact my family fought the English and still does and I'm f'in proud of it but,what an incredible result against a very good team. Scotland is suffering badly. We're bleeding to death. WTF is wrong. 0-1 isn't bad against a very good Dutch side but that's not the problem what is ? You can't blame any one individual but we look like amateurs compared to other national teams. Is it a cultural thing or did the boycott initiated by Boyd and co run deep and influence any importance to national pride ?......
