    October 11, a day which will live in infamy. Team USA doesn't even have a manager at this point in time. Ugh.

    Worst place to see a match. No matter where you sit you're behind a Pole.

    sorry to mention, but they played friendly game in Russia and without Messi. It was not very serious game for sure!

    Maybe some of Hull City fans who are going to visit Volgograd will be interested to know that Leonid is running youth academy of soccer there.
    It was open on equal footing by Leonid and big CSKA organisation (not football club) about a year ago. Some video&pics are available by the link http://cskavolgograd.ru/news/video/

    You can take nothing for granted but it's a good draw.

    Fabrique Belgique have a glass jaw and our ignorance of the other two doth voluminic speaketh.

    English arrogance aside, if we don't qualify then we'll have moved to a new level of truly, madly, ****ly.

    On paper not a bad draw, but as we know like with City we have do idea which England team will turn up. If we get out of the group, which we should on paper, I will be amazed.

    It's possibly the weakest looking World Cup draw there's ever been. Some of the groups, including ours, look like all the teams should be eliminated at the group stage.

    Could have saved a lot of bother by just going straight to the semifinal draw between Germany, Spain, Brazil and Argentina.

    Won't win f'kall until we find another Sol Campbell and Terry Butcher cos our defense gets found out against real opposition. Germany again for me sadly..

    True. Alan Butchers are hard to find these days.

    We could open with Alan Butcher and Sol Campbell. Bat Harry Kane three. Sterling a bit lower down, protect him from the German quicks? Hart behind the stumps - go with experience.

    Harry opening when they're in.



    Radical, but we could win this thing.

    If this were boxing, I see what you did there.. on that count, you'd be most worried about Panama turning into a Roberto Duran

    let's not stop there, let's go back to the heady days of 1930, ban air travel to the world cup.. the Germans have no experience of trudging overland through Russia do they?

    They all take place inside my work hours.
    Certainly won't be changing them to watch that boring fare.

    We have two 70” TVs at my office, not going to be a lot of work done I’m afraid. Can’t wait.
