    What happened all the hot female tennis players? I think they just quit and became minimally dressed soccer fans.

    True. Sub-standard, cods such as himself ruin our game and this is why the game of soccer is viewed upon with large grins by our other classic sports of golf and rugby. People like this fella need to be sorted out and slapped with a fine. The only way to get at him is through his pay packet. It should be riddled and that's the only way we'll put a stop to this nonsense.

    Diving review comission. Should be: a 6 month ban, all wages to charity for that period, club fined.

    Looking forward to the Holland vs Brazil game.

    Think it could be a cracker.

    Hope that didn't jinx it.

    Brazil will be finalists.

    If Germany beat Argentina, they will also be finalists.

    If they lose to Germany, Spain will be finalists.

    So, Brazil will play either Spain, who they will beat, or Germany who they won't.

    No - Spain will be beaten before the Final

    Germany FTW!

    I was supporting Argentina but have €20 on Germany. I reckon they can do it.

    If the 2 best teams so far continue to perform, it'll be a Spain/Argentina Final and I'll go for Spain to pip them.

    A Spain vs Argentina final isn't possible due to the set-up of the draw. If they do play each other, it will be in the semi-final.

    It could happen. Not a bad bet if the odds were good (and the stake was low!).

    €133.20 back for a tenner, not great.

    name a goal scorer for each match as well and your laughing, had a look earlier, select the top scorer for each of those nations, something like 130/1 in an accum, havn't placed it yet, still looking at the markets


    a safer bet might be for them to just qualify for the semi finals, a tenner on the above four will give you 40 back from PP in an accum

    ;)

    Not a bad little bet for the interest... might have a go at this myself.

    Thinking Robinho, Suarez, Higuain and David Villa.

    I'm on Brazil / Brazil @ 11/4.

    During the last Brazil game, the babes in the Woolshed were amazing.

    Not a bra amongst them :p
