I think all the groups are pretty tight! So should be a great one this time!  =D> Brazil will probably have an easy ride as usual...  Whistle

And England - we can only hope for the best. If they don't get through the Group stages along side Sweeden in Group B it will be pretty disapointing. Frown


Looks like Brazil have judging by their group ........... could you imagine Togo winning it lol

LOL! Well there can always be some suprises in football.
There's a team from South Africa that i remember watching some time ago.. called Burkina Faso. And they did amazing  =D>  (really can't remember when i saw or heard them...)
It would be nice to have some dark horses in sport more often! Very Happy

England should definately get through their group and if they don't then I think that Sven's time might be up.

I know - with their form this year, that seeding was a little surprising in my eyes....

What are everyone's predictions for the World Cup 2006?  Think the final clashes with Wimbledon fortnight, but not 100% on that, but I'm sure that someone will put me right!

I think that the England team need to play with a bit more 'passion' and start playing more like a team but I'm no expert, so what do I know!  dontknow

I think that they'll get to the quarter-final stages at most but I hope that they prove me wrong.

They will probably get to quarters then Sven will see them lose but won't do anything.  we have applied for tickets for some of England's group matches and possibly their second round match.  We will find out at the beginning of Feburary.  Hope we go but I really don't see England getting far.  If Rooney,Gerrard, Lampard and Terry are all on top form then maybe we can scrape through to the semis but I don't think so.

yep, im thinking quarters if we're lucky!  dontknow

and i agree with you bev!!  goodjob
england need to think of the football.. not the money, the friendly (or non friendly in most cases) relations.. and strat playing with a bit more passion and enthusiam.. at the end of the day it's the football that we're all here for!!
but i do think they've got something missing.  dontknow maybe it's someone that would draw everyone together, but just seems that everything's pretty much falling to peices. Frown
