World Cup Predictions

Postby Gingerfinch » Thu May 29, 2014 12:01 pm

Not long now...2 weeks in fact.

I thought we could have a prediction cup, Just for fun, of course. One point for each correct prediction, and a 3 point bonus if you get three correct.

England's fate - I always want England to do well enough to go out on penalties, but I can't see them getting out of the group stage. They'll be out on contention a day after the Socceroos.

My guess is they'll easily beat us.

Some teams have a big game mentality......... England would draw the first game of a WC if they were playing san marino...... they wont mange a draw against Italy

I'd go as far as to suggest that if England's second game is against Uruguay, then their tournament will be effectively over after 5 days, rather than the 9 I've been bashing on about

you heard it here first.

don't expect a surprise.... or a miracle

don't fall for the 'nobody gives us a prayer, so the pressure will be off' nonsense either

it isn't going to happen

better to prepare yourself for it now

it'll be less disappointing later
