    Wtf are you trying to say, that I dont drive anywhere interesting.

    :eek:

    :p

    I have no idea where you drive but until you dig yourself out of that hole son and acquire enough capital to get three more tyres above the legal minimum thread depth you'd be taking your life in your hands and risking legal ramifications……………I say its likelier you'll stay with the swing, with stakes like 50c you've already proven yourself to be risk averse + you're going to be spending so long beside that swing anywhere else will become more interesting

    pfft…a real gambler would have remortgaged his house, sold some offspring and a goodly quantity of blood and semen and perhaps an extraneous organ like one of his kidneys in order to have a proper stake for a once in a lifetime dream accumulator like that!

    Why he wouldn't use new rope is what I want to know! Some people are so careless when it comes to tyre swing safety

    New rope is a luxury afforded to those with more than 75.50 already ear marked for a single car tyre

    Better a minor swing mishap than a major traffic incident I always say

    Engerland to scrape through in order to build a bit of momentum and hubris before a crushing defeat later in the tournament - that is how it should go if the gods of association football remain consistent and my memory serves

    Fair play to RTE for showing every game. They'll even have the full panel on for the 2AM Ivory Coast vs Japan game.

    It's not often that I'd give them praise but credit where it's due.

    Something tells me Colombia v Greece will be entertaining.

    Greece are capable of playing really good counter-attacking football. Colombia always bring lots of attacking flair and colour too. Colombia to edge it 2-1.

    Hard to see anything other than a Uruguay win in the next game, although Costa Rica always give a good account of themselves. 3-1 Uruguay.

    Italy v England is hard to call. I think England have it in them to spring a major surprise in this one. I'm gonna say 3-1 to England, but that depends on the pitch being in playable condition, dreadful situation for a world cup ground tbh.

    If all that happens I'll be a happy man, and then hopefully wake up to an Ivory Coast win over Japan.

    I just wanted to mix things up a bit and I suppose I may as well support the local team.

    Colombia to beat Greece by two tonnes of heroin.

    Uruguay will beat Costa Rica by three sendings off to one.

    I hope Italy beat England by the same score as England beat them in their last match: 36-6.

    Oh yeah, upside-down Ireland to beat Japan 4-1.

    Same as the first three but iv Japan to win in the last. Head says there'll be a few draws today thought Greece are past masters of boring nonsense and who knows what England will serve up capable of something this time round but we've said that before

    Haven't Greece only ever scored one World Cup goal in 4 tournaments or something?

    This is their 3rd WC.

    Played 6, won 1, lost 5, scored 2, conceded 15.

    They beat Nigeria 2-1 in 2010.

    Go Bosnia & Hercegovina (BIH)! First match is late on Sunday, against Argentina. Let's see how low we can keep the goal difference!

    (That's what I get for taking part in the office sweepstakes with a random draw ... :o )

    Cant see either of these progressing to be honest. Greece are bad, but Colombia are not much better despite the score line.
