    Roy Keanes post match analysis is going to be riveting.

    Can say I haven't seen a really decent game yet and I've seen them all except one.

    when he's sitting there staring off into the distance when Bilic or Dixon are talking all I can hear in my head is Simon and Garfunkel "Hello darkness my old friend...."

    Predictions for the first nil nil match please. I'm saying England v Tunisia...

    Costa Rica v Serbia | Sweden v South Korea are my potentials for a 0-0 scoreline

    Very disapointed with Nigeria. Croatia hard to judge as they did what they had to do.

    No red cards yet though. Normally we have had a couple by now at least.

    Don't worry England haven't played yet

    Tunisia are a decent side - recently drew with Portugal and Turkey - only lost 1-0 to Spain. Panama are an easy 3 points - for everybody in the group, but Tunisia on paper is tough and if we don't win it we will probably need something from the Belgium game!

    If we don't win it this country will go into meltdown.

    fuck sake.

    Putin crumbled. lost all respect for him. no musical instruments in the stadium now a whole brass section and drums are allowed into the match.
  • The only circumstance in which I'd happily welcome Russian ultras turning up. Awful.

    lol are you going out your way to be miserable?

    Peru v Denmark was a great game and Spain v Portugal was an all time classic.

    Still, it’s no Charlton against Shrewsbury.

    i'd also add the Argentina/Iceland game was a great watch as well (for different reasons to the above)

    Looking forward to the last two games today - about to watch the first but more in hope than expectation!

    Croatia v Nigeria was terrible, but I have found something to enjoy in most so far!

    As for the band. I remember when we had that Dutch band at the Valley and I went home with a splitting headache! There is no need for them or those bloody things beginning with V that I can't spell!

    Spain/Portugal was decent....it was the one I missed....and I said really decent, most have been OK, though Iran/Morocco wasn't all that, won't be watching Serbia V Costa Rica....so that will be a 4-4 thriller, may watch Germany/Mexico in the pub and hopefully Brazil/Switzerland....though maybe a bit worse for wear by then.
    Enjoyed watching Peru, thought the Danes were lucky to win that, Iceland were very good and deserved a point against Argentina.

    Agree, Iceland can also play a bit to, there not just about good organisation and physical strength.

    I was actually impressed with Costa Rica when they played Northern Ireland - thought they would do well, but they didn't look so good against England and Belgium. I think they are a side that play well if you let them so the question is will Serbia let them? My gut feeling is Costa Rica will win this one!

    Had a tenner on em, so I hope they're at least decent.

    I prefer the vuvuzelas every day of the week over the sound of that horrible band sound that plagues every England game.

    Nice positive start by both teams. Complete contrast to Croatia Nigeria yesterday - was sick of football by that point and the way that game was played didn't help!

    Honestly?
