England vs Italy (Group D) Saturday 14th June 2014

[quiquaquo]

Couldn't care about losing to Uruguay or Costa Rica but not to Italy , please no.

My heart says 1-1, my head says Italy 3-1.

So why did you post it?

Someone asked for odds from a non UK site. Just because I can't decipher it doesn't mean someone else won't be able to.

 

[Johnny Canuck3]

Will you be watching the match JC? Cheering on either side?

I might see the end of it. It's right in the middle of my Saturday grocery shopping time. I'll try to catch Cote d'Ivoire Japan at 6.

Delay your shopping

5-1 to England.

Sturridge, the English Robben, to run rampant.

Stevie G totally neutralises Pirlo.

 

[weltweit]

It is on pretty late.

Sort of reminds me of staying up to watch Mike Tyson fights, you waited till the small hours then it was over and done in no time at all!

I hope it isn't like that tonight, it would be good for England to start with a win!

It's guaranteed to be on for 90 minutes, even if there's a "knockout blow" after 10.

BBC news just now filming England fans in Manaus singing: "In the jungle, the mighty jungle.."

I hope they put on a good show. Not expecting anything like the Dutch but it would be nice

Glad to see a long time Barmy Army favourite making the transition to football

The Italian family across the road have put a massive Italy flag on their balcony, so my mum has just had me dig out an old flag of mine from when I used to go in for that sort of thing and iron it

Just off to pin it on our balcony...

These colours don't run.

How fucking cool is Pirlo ?

 

[ska invita]

Italy aren't so cautious these days.

yeah thats what ive heard... i associate italy as the classic highly defensive passing side, but supposedly under the current regime they are much more dynamic... i think there will be at least one goal today

Italy conceded nine goals in qualifying, including two at home to Armenia
More than any European group winner besides Germany

Teams like Italy and Brazil are too cool to play well in anything other than finals, I dont think its worth reading anything into those recent stats, in fact I would bet on Italy each way to win the whole thing but im a bit tight this month

Interesting, the Dutch detest the Germans

yeah i thought the germans really look down on the dutch too, though i guess its a bit like people in england supporting ireland over spain.

I wish more games kicked off at 11pm (other than this world cup) - very civilised time for some football

 

[binka]

and iron it

whats wrong with that? don't want it all creased - what would the neighbours think?

 

[Johnny Canuck3]

what sort of idiot goes food shopping on saturday afternoon??

We don't shop at large supermarkets. We shop at small local greengrocers, butcher shops in neighborhoods with lots of coffee shops, food stands etc. It's quite pleasant.

 

[tommers]

I think it's just that everybody enjoyed Spain being taken down a peg or two.

We usually watch a good 15 minutes of football on Saturday afternoon, at the Italian coffee shop we go into for a coffee.

Usually either jobs around the house or chasing after young children to stop them hurting themselves.
