Finally the world cup starts properly

 

[Mr.Bishie]

Finally the world cup starts properly

lol

 

[Lord Camomile]

Favourites: "bit of a rough start".
England: "hold my craft ale".

 

[strung out]

Fuck sake, these thread titles are getting worse and worse. We started so well, as well

I think they're doing it on purpose now

 

[souljacker]

I think we'll see a good England performance and a comfortable win thereby massively increasing the hype. There will be flags on many cars come Tuesday morning.

 

[imposs1904]

First 0-0 of the tournament - hopefully.

 

[Kaka Tim]

they should do ok. team seems calm and refreshingly free of "big stars" - and big egos - with a point to prove - rooney, terry, lampard, gerrard, beckham etc. young squad with quite a lot of competition for places. Southgate's been there before and seems to be a calming influence - and is up for trying something different.
most likely it will be a fairly dull game and a workman like win for england.

 

[twentythreedom]

It's going to be a frustrating and disappointing draw. Standard.

 

[Riklet]

3-0 England. Tunisia might get a goal in...

Although judging by the way all the other games have gone with the big teams, who knows!

 

[JimW]

Don't think you can call Tunisia a big team.

 

[1927]

Getting in excuses early I see!

[1927]

OMG, what have me eyes just seen! Be prepared to be embarrassed England!

 

[tommers]

It should say when instead of if.

 

[Lord Camomile]

Apparently there's only 3-4 hours of darkness each night where England have made their base.

They've got blackout curtains, but can't be ideal...

 

[Teaboy]

I predict England will be quick out of the blocks and score early. As the game goes on we'll miss a couple of good chances (Sterling probably) and Tunisia will begin to come back into it. We'll drop deeper and deeper trying to cling on the slender lead. Final score 1 - 1.

 

[MrSki]

Fuck it I am going out on a leg here but the youth can gel. I am going for 3-1

 

[Pickman's model]

i'm going 2-1 tunisia

 

[littlebabyjesus]

Comfortable, workmanlike 2-0 win to England, a la Croatia.

 

[skyscraper101]

I'm going Tunisia to win 0-0

 

[Pickman's model]

Comfortable, workmanlike 2-0 win to England, a la Croatia.

Pretty much the standard England turn out for my entire life

 

[butchersapron]

Charge - optimism. Sentence - life.

Fuck it.
