Football World Cup - Russia 2018

[Joey Shabadoo]

Saudi Arabia aren't very good are they?

I’ve got a sneaky suspicion that England will do much better than everyone thinks they will - at least quarter finals I predict.

I must be mellowing with old age as the thought of a successful England team doesn’t stress me any longer.

Isn't quarter/semi-finals about par for England?

I don't detect the same general weight of expectation this time around, which may do them a favour.

Belgium look good on paper with Lukaku ,De Bruyne .Hazard etc but rarely last to the sharp end of tournament's Ive gone for the Germans who are usually pretty reliable,

Young team with a sound manager, you could be right. They are also without the long term failures like Hart and Rooney casting a shadow over them.

Robbie Williams "singing" at the opening ceremony. Things can only improve.

 

[stephec]

They are the same odds as England to win...…….

Surely you must be a bit offended by that?

Russia v Saudi, two countries run by loathsome regimes. I wish there was a way they could both lose this one.
A bit like how I feel with every Chelsea v Man Utd encounter.

I bet he will have given it full value.

Looks like a duet with a Russian soprano so it will be worth a listen.

Whatever you think of Williams' music or lifestyle, he is a brilliant stadium performer.

Few connect with a live audience as well as he does.

I didn't have you down as a fan of 'The Robster',Mr Rider.

Doping tests of Russian team conveniently put on hold till after the tournament. You couldn’t make it up. Seventeen of the FIFA officials who chose Russia now banned for corruption. You couldn’t make it up. Think I’ll switch off and ride my bike.

1966 must be fading from your memory. Don't worry, the BBC, ITV, and Sky presenters will soon remind you!

Has the Russian Language song, “Football’s Gulag Home” been released yet?


It’s gulag home, it’s gulag, footballs gulag home...etc.
