Dare I ask - have we any ABE supporters here? Don't want to start a fight - just curious.

Howdy I DID out myself as ABE in an earlier thread

I have hardly moved all day, have really enjoyed the opening games. Won't be much housework done this month.

Uruguay V France was pretty boring

S Korea V Greece isn't the best prospect tomorrow but Argentina V Nigeria and the USA game should be crackers

 

[luke]

So, less than two hours before the hype all comes to a head, any predictions?

I'm going for a 3-1 England, don't think USA will be good enough so make it a real challenge.

 

[hildasmuriel]

I say 1-1, and a complete vilification of the team in the press.
Not to mention great crowing and rejoicing by all English haters.

See that's one of the reasons I don't like [following] England, the complete overhyped build up in order to just knock the team down

I think a draw is the best America can hope for, although they do have some talented players (Dempsey has had a very good season for Fulham).

Glad to see Argentina get off to a winning start, although it really should have been more - just waiting for little Leo to catch fire

.....(Dempsey has had a very good season for Fulham)......

Leaving my husband conflicted - he wants anyone from his beloved Fulham to do well.


Nice start, Gerrard.

 

[luke]

How does DH feel then now? Happy for Clint, shocker of a mistake tho

 

[scojos]

bit of a shame, as he had it in his gloves..

 

[hildasmuriel]

Grrrr, bleeping Fulham players. I might have to divorce my husband.

listen mate its the wolves goal keeper so mixed feelings round here, as for divorcing due to mixed loyalties were foot is concerned....i so understand

 

[hildasmuriel]

Aaaargh, I'm soooo nervous.

After Spain, Germany, France etc - nothing is certain anymore....

 

[hildasmuriel]

My fears were well founded.

 

[Rohais]

Awful. Just awful

 

[luke]

Haha very amusing was that

Totally agree with Wayne Rooney there, those fans are just another one of the reasons that I don't find myself following Ingerlund

Still think England will go through however

 

[Rohais]

I thought DF got stressed when Liverpool played...!

 

[uktraveller]

Should still beat Slovenia, although need to change from 4-4-2

 

[luke]

Anyone about then?

As I've always said, as soon as England came up against a half decent team they would be found out!

Now can enjoy the World Cup without the media overkill
