A person should have an opinion on everything, It becomes tact whether you reveal that opinion or not.

I watched Ecuador/Germany game and was so pleased with the 2-1 result. They thoroughly deserved it!

I watch as many as I can but obviously I'm hoping England will play with a bit more passion tomorrow :thumbup:

My grandchildren have English,Dutch,Morrocan,Dutch Antilles and Somalian roots so apart from Somalia who seem more interested in fighting civil wars than playing football we've been watching the matches with flags of all countries mentioned hanging up.The Dutch and Curacao are out and have gone home so we are left with England and Morroco.
England playing DR Congo (or is it Congo Kinshasa ?) tomorrow night .For me it would be great if England play Morroco in the Final Endland winning of course but i fancy Brazil or France and maybe even Argentina. Not even going to mention the song that "Frank Skinner" from Bristnall Hall Road,Oldbury co-wrote.

Well that's a surprise France v Spain, I really thought France would be in the final :o
Spain were well up for it!

Obviously I hope England win tomorrow against Argentina but I'm getting really nervous :think:

I'm a typical Libran very optimistic. I've told Ken when I "pass over to the other side" I want everybody to sing Always Look on the Bright Side of Life at my funeral :lol: :lol: :lol: His reply is are you sure because you can never make up your mind :o

Blame the manager this time. He's been all talk throughout tournament then just plays defensive, same old same old. (Who paid him at half time ?)
Players just looked so confused. :roll:
