Missed your edit there... turns out that you were right. It's not the first time I've had to eat my words on matters footballing, which is why I steer well clear of the bookies!

Van Bommel will be licking his lips. Dirty cúnt. Hopefully the ref will see him for what he is.

Incidentally, has the referee been announced yet? Wouldn't be surprised if Howard Webb got the gig.

No word of it yet. They should've picked that Uzbeki chap. He and his pals have had a good tournament. Having said that they weren't great in the Netherlands Uruguay game

He'd actually probably do a good job too, seeing as there's no United players involved.

yes, an english team has reached the finals, a team of referees that is

Its not too bad for the English, their angling team won the World Champinoships a couple of weeks ago, actually it was the same day the Germans stuffed them.(Ireland won an individual silver medal for the second year running, well done Cathal

)

So, for my 40/1 bet to work out I need the Dutch to win and Van persie to score at least 4 more goals. I think i can kiss that money goodbye, yeah?

Barring a small miracle, I would imagine so!

gingelion · 09-07-2010 02:36AM

Well then, Robin Van Persie is a spa. You heard it here first.

I'll still put a tenner on him for top scorer in prem.

Chasing Dreams · 09-07-2010 06:09PM

I hope the Spanish win, they deserve it in my opinion.

Also, a nice bit of trivia. Should Spain win, who will be the only nation to have remained undefeated during this World Cup?

New Zealand. They should be declared World #1.

Think that's what he meant!

If Holland win, they will be only the second team ever to win all Qualifying and World Cup games. Brazil in 1970 is the other team.

Don't know who to shout for

the spanish are cruel to animals> bullfighting, bullruns, throwing goats off towers etc

But the netherlands have won all their matches so far, including qualifiers.

Should they win they will be only the second country in world cup history to achieve a perfect world cup campaign. The first being Brazil in 1970.

In addition i will be up almost €200 as I backed them before the WC started

I'm talking about at this World Cup finals only, and I said should Spain win, which would leave New Zealand as the only unbeaten team.

I know. The answer is New Zealand, not Spain.

Well, all you need is v.Persie to score 4, and the other will fall into place, tbh...

Again, they struggled against far weeker defences. They'll get 1 if they're lucky.
