The World Cup draw thread!

Holland are in the bad side of the draw though! Argentina, Germany, England and France are much better for us then Brazil, Portugal Italy and Spain!

Great that we can avoid Spain and Brazil until the semis (if we get that far of course)

Ghana, Serbia, Germany could be hard in the last 16, other than that England can have no excuses. They have an easy group and are on the easier side of the draw.

Interviewer: You've been to Robben-Island too?
Van Marwijk: Yes
Interviewer: You didn't dive overthere, did you?

Its too dangerous to dive their. Easy to get injured with the reefs and all.

This is not EC side, the groups get mixed up later on. Not that shitty two cdompetitions in one until the final.

OK you an meat a A-D team in the semi at earliest..still a bit better though.

France may be the first 'big name' casualty. The refs will help South Africa all they can just like in 2002 with South Korea and Japan.

México and Uruguay may beat France altogether especially México.

Agree, a draw of two halves is unfair, the way it's set up now it's best.

The more I think of it the more I want Brazil in the QF, we tend to do well v them & still have to get revenge for the 1994 QF & especially the 1998 SF.

Think they've great whites there too (Robben Island).

I hope the refs help SA. They've spend billions they don't have and get about the worst group possible. Could be over for them in 10 days. Hope for an anti-France conspiracy.

So Brazil will park the bus in the first round!

We still have to get the revenge for 1974! Two times wasn't enough!

Honestly, I think that you would lose. Brazil would play boring football and score in the counter attack!

Good draw for us.

The group is not easy but doable.

But we´re on the better side of the draw.
Spain, Brazil, Italy would be much harder than England or France or Argentina.

Holland plays 4-2-3-1 as well these days and just lacks quality, so it wont be as good as matches we had before.

Tough draws for Brasil and Germany....

Italy, England, and Spain got easy ones....

Feel for Japan and the hosts. They got proper fucked.

Weren't the Japanese media hoping for a Semi Final finish? Man, can't see Australia, Japan, South Korea getting out of their group.

Maybe Spain or Brazil but within a hour of the group draw is a bit hasty. But then you won't expect anything less from the English media

Believe me the Germans are worse, especially the obsession with England is insane. But since nobody speaks a different language then English people dont notice that.

I'm pretty sure you are totally wrong

I'm guessing pundits from most major countries were talking about who they would be facing as soon as the draw came out. It is perfectly natural.

Liédson, Pepe and Deco will play against their home country.

Nah i think we're wrong Paddy. All other nations will only consider the next round once they're qualified, they're just good people.

How many Brazillians will be at the world cup? 50?

Speaking of quarter finals: (potentially)

England vs France
Netherlands vs Brazil
Argentina vs Germany
Italy vs Spain

Fuck me this might be the greatest World Cup ever!

Hook, line and sinker come to mind.

North Korea announced they will not be showing the World Cup live and will only show the matches North Korea win.

Charlize Theron is a c*nt. My word is she a c*nt.

Oh well, better get those pirate box sets of The Wire then.

Eh so there's no world cup in North Korea. To be honest, they shouldn't be allowed in the competition with that kind of thing going on. They're shite at football...if they wont have many fans there...and they wont watch back home, kick them out and throw Ireland in.
