  1. Germany to win 2-1 is the bet I have on. Ozil and Muller to score for Germany. Ronaldo to score for Portugal.
  2. BBC News - Neville's World Cup commentary style draws complaints < it was bound to happen, and glad to know I am not the only one that sent an official complaint.
  3. http://images-cdn.9gag.com/photo/aXb6MYD_460s_v2.jpg Brazil in a nutshell (excuse language in the middle, couldn't find a clean version at work)
  4. People were all over facebook saying Rooney should be dropped. In short, no he shouldn't. Point 1: Rooney scored more goals in the qualifiers than any other England player Point 2: Rooney has set up more goals in 3 world cups than all other England players combined over the last 3 world cups Point 3: Rooney is the 5th highest goal scorer for England with only Michael Owen being better from the last 15 years. Point 4: As a number 10, his job is to play ahead of the midfield but behind the striker. His job is to score and to assist, he does both perfectly fine. His issue is that he is greedy however, and should never have taken the ball from Barkley and shot, however Barkley was running into 3 Italians and stood no chance at passing or shooting so Rooney did him a favour, however Rooney would have been better to pass the ball to the left and have it whipped in.
  5. Both Honduras and France are known for their shock tactics in a game, and both play dirty when the need arises. As such it was a bit brutal. However Benzema has shown he is a force to be reckoned with this WC.
  6. Well I know Xirrus and Aruba have only gotten better since, so they may be worth looking into. I believe @CPTLD may well supply Ruckus and Xirrus.
  7. Pirlo should have scored that free kick...
  8. Right result....wrong score...I'm out of this one for the star prize. I predicted 3-1 to Italy.
  9. Dodgiest batch of officials ever...dos Santos scores 2 legitimate goals and they are ruled as offside. Not impressed at all with the result as Mexico should have won 3-0.
  10. If I win I'll keep it as a media device for the car :-)
  11. [ATTACH]25083[/ATTACH] Here is my old research material which may be of use. I did this in December 2008 - March 2009. Was a reasonable test, and covered what we needed. We had to keep the format the same for each "review" so the governors could see our decision easily enough.
  12. http://d24w6bsrhbeh9d.cloudfront.net/photo/aVOyoby_460s.jpg LOL! That is class
  13. Suggest looking at AC. It may be more expensive, but its backwards compatible with all other techs, and works out the box. I love Ruckus and where possible, will get it installed where I work.
  14. 310 minutes @Millgate *edit* I only know this as it was literally mentioned on the local radio as I was clicking on this thread. lol
  15. Amazing that Spain only scored 8 goals in the last world cup and were champions.
  16. Brazils card ranting was a joke, and it will likely carry on throughout the tournament which is a disgrace. Croatia's goal should have counted but such is life, and no, it was never a penalty in my eyes.
  17. Never again do I want to watch such a shambles of an opening ceremony.
  18. By Outlandish I am sure she means England winning!
  19. Glad I could assist...more will come later.
  20. Whats been the most outragious score you've seen so far?
  21. 2nd sweepstakes...got Chile. Couldn't believe the luck of 1 lady, she got Brazil in the first one, and Argentina and Germany in the 2nd one. Just couldn't believe her luck!
  22. Entered by email!
  23. Are you mad? EPL is killing off English talent in replacement for foreign talent. EPL has less than 1/3 of English players in the teams, compared to Germany, Spain, Italy etc where they have around 55% of the league flooded with home grown talent. EPL (and other leagues across europe) worked best when they were limited to the amount of international players they could have in a squad. Reinstitute the Bosman rule for foreign players 3 non-domestic players + 2 assimilated players (people who have played for the team for 5 years or more, or had come through the youth team as a foreign national).
  24. Perhaps, but I dont get a chance to go to Southampton often to watch, I only go to the north london clubs as they're the closest that are entertaining.
