World Cup 2018

Even if they lose the semi they'll be dead certs for Team of the Year award in December

It'll be straight fight between this team, England's T20 team and the GB Ice Hockey team

GB ice hockey team

What about man city 100+ points. Most Goals scored in a season

The Russian manager's got one of Gareth Southgate's lucky wastecoats under his jacket.

Hope its croatia we play do you think the refs will be fair to us on Weds if we are playing russia

Other than the obvious, the best thing about this World Cup has been my reaquaintance with Baddiel and Skinner's "Three Lions". I love the intro with the soundbites from Alan Hansen, Jimmy Hill and (I think) Trevor Brooking.

Can't see anything in the Russia/Croatia game to be scared of. It won't help either of them to have to do extra time and maybe penalties.

Do we want to play Russia, poor players, but great team spirit . And a very hostile crowd.
Our do we want Croatia, with at least 6 top players.

Decision needed to see who I'm following in the shoutout

England have to be favourites to beat either team, the only thing that could concern them is if Croatia get through and play like they did against Argentina but that has been lacking since then

It looks like England's biggest threat in the semi's will be themselves and whether or not they choke

Think you're right. Croatia left their best form with the Argentina match and they haven't looked the same side since (or was it just that Argentina were dreadful?)
Feel gutted for Russia though.

Well done England I had a feeling they would do well this time I even predicted it before World Cup started http://www.babeshows.co.uk/showthread.ph...pid2164388 I also put a bet on them getting to semi-final stage so I have a big pay out to look forward to as well I said to my mate other day let's make history by getting to World Cup semi-final for first time in 28 years I only just remember it as I was young then but England have to stay focused for the next task.
