it ended 2-2.
that last goal by sweden annoyed me. took the joy out of the match and reveals england has problems seriously at the back. so much panic. why?
still tipping england to go faaaarrrr!

Seun:
This system doesn't make the forum attractive to those who are not really into soccer. I want to talk about the French match because I saw them playing on TV, but I first have to do research on which group they are playing in.

THerefore I suggest that this system should be scrapped once we reach the second round. From the second round, the format for threads we start should be: TeamA vs TeamB: So And So Round Germany 2006. Thanks.

seun, i think what akolawole did was great and commendable. he got[b] everyone[/b] involved in the threads, and i find it not bothersome at all locating the threads to post in.
imagine the endless nos of threads we would have had if it wasnt grouped ( remember that each country in a group would play three other countries, multiply that with the eight groups we have. that will be the no of threads we would have had for just the group stages alone) to me that would have been a real drag. nevertheless you are the c-in-c here, so if you say the system should be scraped then it would be scraped.

what a crack of sh*t! ha ha ha

hi bolaoni, good evening to you. where have you been?
anyway welcome, brother, the surprises don start o, see poland yesterday and now sweden. well they just have to slug it out now or else it will be a shock exit for them if they have to go out in the first round. they were being touted as being the strongest in their group.

i catch ya greeting cabali,
spiky are you sure that match is at 9.00pm nigerian time?
i think say na 7.47pm o, not very sure sha.

i don talk am say football no be maths!
eewooo! who can tell what just happened here tonight, even with one man down, its absolutely unbelievable.
i was screaming with T & T at the final blast of the whistle,
na wa o.
oh one of the many reasons i love football.

ronaldinho
henry
messi
rooney
gerrard
fabregas
ronaldo
drogba
ballack
robben

yes, spain and ukraine but the tunisians are capable of upstaging ukrainians, i think.

iran topping the group? very funny.

on second thought, nothing is impossible. esp. in football. (whoever thought ecuador could beat polland by 2 unreplied goals?)

i see portugal even topping the group. i dont know why. just a feeling.

YEAH girl, i'm glad you're with me on this one.

have you seen the group f thread?, go there and post pls.

prisscy, its either you are a police woman or a soldier for sure. you cant tell me otherwise.
i've always suspected this.

oh spiky, i do not hate brazil, infact i love them so much but i dont want them to win it again.
i love it when football is unpredictable and i want it to stay that way.
everyone is tipping brazil to win so i want the bookmakers/everyone disproved. thats all.

italy, spain, england, france, germany, holland, infact any country but brazil.

hi mukina, welcome to this thread, come now sister, give us a hand here. join prisscy and i to make this the best of all.

saudi arabia i'm afraid will not do anything as usual.
but perhaps tunisia will fight for it for us, who knows?

yeah i miss skintite and bolaoni as well. where are all these loved ones?
someone tell them we're missing them, pleeeeeeeeeeease,

spikelord why are you scared of japan? who are you scared for? brazil or croatia? or australia?

hi nicetohave, great to have you[b] BACK,[/b] omo where you go now, and without warning.?
well great job you're doing here, keep it up.

i think/wish england will qualify but i don't think it will come easy as Paraguay and Sweden would be fighting to qualify as well.
the key for england will be winning their first game and they will be as good as in the next round, t&t would be a walk over while they can afford a draw with Sweden.
thats my wish cos I'm rooting for england.

yeah, ours will be the very best.
plenty of research is needed ooo.
we can do it!

its clear brazil will make it to the next round from this group but its open who goes through with them between australia, croatia and japan.

hey prisscy, i am here, a bit late though, (that cant be helped, as i can only be here in the evenings)
well done so far. thats my sister dear.

hi prisscy,
i have been having some minor hitches. its getting sorted though.
we've been grouped together, i hope we dont dissappoint o
well we should get started.

i see portugal and mexico going through to he 2nd round. no surprises here for me.

hi prisscy, i love those words of wisdom above! thanks.

as for viera, sir kay,pie1ect, babragold, i have missed them too.
i also miss these ones, nicetohave, ababoy, vichel, chxta, codec, teeroy, la_viva, etc where are you guys? , we miss you all.
