Not fancying Germany's chances then?

Not a bad team, will miss Ballack I think but the germans are always there somewhere in the final mix.

Have you seen the youtube of Spain's warm up 6-0 victory over Poland? The second goal. Oh my. Spain are defintely up there amongst the favourites for me this time.

England vs Spain final. 3-2 England (Rooney hattrick, put a monkey on it)

[funky shit]

no chance

god bless BBC HD and ITV HD.

I am a german living in spain, married to a woman from argentina. 3 options to celebrate a winner!

(last time brazil won was a big party here as well, I remember a spontaneous street parade with samba drummers and beutiful dancing people...)

Cheers!

Are the kiwis excited about NZ being in the finals this time? only appeared oince before 1982 and never won a game. Did give the azzuri a run for their money last year, 4-3 loss...got to be outsiders in a strong group but you never know!

[funky shit]

you never know is right. there is always a few teams who are thought to go out in the first round but actually do well.

pitty ireland isnt in it this year
that henry bastard

Mandela to miss the opening ceremory http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/africa/10290830.stm

[jeskola01]

put a monkey on it

Might as well have thrown it out the window

Either a Holland v Spain or Brazil v Spain final.

[UKRuss]

Good calls, but then no scot worth his salt is going to put England in the final.

Funky, damn straight. Ireland were royally robbed.

This is one of those times when being self employed is GREAT
I plan to watch at least some of EVERY match
I'm not even a huge football fan
but world cups really light my candle
I may even have to watch the opening ceremony
