My local Coral bookies are offering a 200/1 that England will Qualify...In order for that too happen Italy will need to beat Uruguay by atleast 2 goals, and England will need to beat Costa Rica by 3 goals. I stuck £1 down on that. If I lose, meh, if I win, Wahey!

Lampard was the highest scoring midfielder for Chelsea, ever...And same for England...highest scoring midfielder, ever...he has scored 29 goals for England.
-
Nope, Firmly sticking with Germany here. In the run up, they're the only unbeaten team.

There were 3 world cups where England couldn't field a squad good enough to play. There were 3 world cups where England didn't qualify to the group stages. There were 2 world cups where England couldn't get past the group stages (this year would be the 3rd if that happened again). There were 6 world cups where England couldn't get past the quarter finals. There was 1 world cup where England couldn't get past the semi final. There was 1 world cup where England made it too the final (and won). Also, England have NEVER won a Euro competition... Granted Hollands record isn't much better (infact they've not qualified 7 times, and didn't enter 3 times) however when they have entered the world cup, they have a better record than England do in getting to the advanced stages. 3 finals, 1 semi, 1 quarter final out of 8 world cups. I wont take away from English pride, because I do wish them well, but history of the players suggests it just wont happen.

Take them through what they should expect to see: Go over the tabs and what is in them (basic overview) Then go over how to do basic tables and using basic formulae. After this, if they wish to go further, that is down to them. We covered the basics here as it is rarely used and gave out a small sheet with "top tips" on Excel (mind you, we did this when we upgraded everyone to Office 2010)

Holland are the best team to have NOT won the world cup. They deserved it in 2010, and were very unlucky against Spain then. This world cup however, I think its going to the Germans. Not because I am biased, but their form is amazing, and they made short work of Portugal who are Europes #3 team and #4 in the world rankings. since August 2013, Germany haven't lost a game, despite playing some big hitters (Sweden, Italy, Portugal, England, Poland).

He should never have been picked. And the back 4 should have had John Terry and Ashley Cole with them, just for the experience factor and that they are very very good internationally.

Millgate Summer Promo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
featured_spectre replied to Millgate's topic in General Chat
He was everywhere in the attacking half, and even defended for Uruguay as well. I think Sky Sports did a hot spot thing for him, and he covered almost the entire pitch except for the corners of the pitch in his half. He had played a blinder and even if he didn't score, he would have been great because of this. I dislike his antics from what he did at Liverpool, but he is a very good player and nobody can take that away from him. Also, Rooney scoring last night, he finally scored a world cup goal! -
Nothing wrong with being German...I have 3 passports (I have UK, German and US)

Suarez was a beast last night. Shows why he is a world class player. Despite his reputation for a bad boy, he is technically gifted. -
Italy 3 - 0 Costa Rica
-
Not too much of an issue for me....I'm more German than English (1/2 German, 1/4 Scottish, 1/4 English)

My wallet just can't take this...

You have to admit, there has been a massive boost for England, knowing they aren't the first to be knocked out... -

England 2-1 First Scorer being Sterling. -
Why would they have to give up their right?
-
see I would think they would be King and Queen of their own countries, but then in their partners countries they would be Prince Consort and Queen Consort respectively. The offspring thereafter would be the leader of a "Royal Union" between the 2 nations
-
A genuine question here, something that we were discussing this lunch time. If Prince George (3rd in line to British Throne) marries Princess Leonor of Spain (next in line to the throne), when both eventually ascend, if they had a child, would said child be King/Queen of BOTH nations, respective territories and domains?

Maths is correct, but are you guys seriously paying 20p per kWh? -

featured_spectre replied to reggiep's topic in How do you do....it?
1. Watts = 4.2W 2. Watts/1000 = kilowatts or kW = 0.0042kW 3. Hours used in month (use an average) = 730.5 Hours ((24 hours in a day * 365.25 days in a year) / 12 months) 4. Kilowatts x Hours = Kilowatt Hours or kWh 3.06 kWh 5. Electricity price (in pence per kWh - enter the cost you pay) = 0.1352 pence (Based on the above EDF costs) 6. kWh x pence = Cost (in pence) to run the item for 1 month = 0.41 pence 7. Number of the same items in the property = 7 Items 8. Cost to run all such items in property for 1 month = £0.029p 9. Total cost per year for all 7 cameras = £0.203p I ran the calculations 3 times, and they check out. Just adjust the wattage and unit cost and you have a sound figure for working out how much something will cost in energy pricing etc. -
I have to pick Chr1s because of previous trolling. It is only fair...lol I am happy to be your champion in another event...provided once again it is viper vs mountain and keeps to the book (not the show, the book death was much better)

please give the wattage on the cameras and the hours of usage per day please (I guess 24 hours), oh and how much you pay per kWh of Electricity. -
No, we stick to the book version.
-
You know, I was just thinking, it must be very embarrassing for Spain to be beaten by 2 countries they used to own...
-
I demand trial by combat...I am the mountain, who wants to be the viper? Also, I shall be used for @CHR1S in this purpose
