    France are absolutely terrible. You know what, I think I would rather England met them in the next round rather than Ecuador….

    Ya I really cant see France offering Spain too many problems.

    No I think we should beat Ecuador pretty comfortably however with England, you never know! I remember the 2002 world cup, I was in Australia at the time which was great as there were no issues with the time difference. I remember having ‘the feeling’ that this was our time (of course it later turned out it wasn’t).

    This world cup I just don’t feel it YET. Perhaps a good performance against Ecuador and a convincing win in the Quarters will bring that feeling back!

    I hope so :)

    That’s what I am hoping for. England do tend to play much better against tougher teams and when under pressure. Fingers crossed.

    Either way, I will be in the boozer cheering them on!

    With the knockout stages comes the old penalty shoot-out scenario though. I suppose the law of averages says that England have to win a Penalty shoot-out soon. I think they did win a PS in 96, but I cant remember any others.

    as england have been practicing pens, i feel its my duty also to practice drinking at the boozer, so i’ll be doing that from 4pm tommorow

    pens don’t worry me, if it happens it happens but i am confident if england play well we can beat any team over 90 mins

    I think it was a David Platt goal that took England through against Belguim in 1990. It think the goal was on last week. A peach it was.

    Scots seem to revel in the England misery while English fans don’t really care what happens to Scotland… Got a fish with them chips on that shoulder of yours? [-X

    Quite similar with Australia I think – many here are rooting for them in their world cup campagin. I doubt it is the case over there with Aussies cheering on England (apart from the backpackers and ex-pats!)
