that would be a pretty interesting match...

The entire UK apart from the Six Counties, Wales, Scotland and Yorkshire.

I actually think ~10,000,000 of the UK would either not give a **** or be rather very upset, and that's not counting people in England.


I'd imagine you'd go into a frenzy whoever wins. Got 32 replica shirts this year, just incase?

England v Argies. Failing that Brazil v Argies. From the continetal mob, CR v Ned would be a very good final I reckon.

England vs Germany, England win 16-0 after the Germans have their entire back four sent off for fighting between themselves in the third minute. Wayne Rooney returns to action with ten minutes left and scores a hat-trick. Theo Walcott also scores a double-hat-trick, all of them bicycle kicks from outside the area.

If four people get sent off from one team isn't the match over?

No it isn't.

6 players on a side and the game is called off, hence Warnock the scumbag persuading a couple of his team that they were injured a few years back.

Dream on.

I would say the UK is far more likely to break up than Argentina ....everyone knows the the SCots and the WElsh aren't exactly enamoured with the English.

Anyway, Argentina have always been a far superior footballing nation to England and always will be. England are nothing more than hype - all you guys have ever done is 1966 - not even a single European championship to boast about - and you still think you're a top footballing nation.

As for "hand of god", well I'm happy to see it still rankles the English after all these years

Humour's a tricky devil to appreciate, isn't it?

As for the bit in bold, well you've got me there. But, just for a laugh, here's two interesting stats for your education & enlightenment:

Competitive games won by Argentina v England in normal playing time: 1
Competitive games won by England v Argentina in normal playing time: 3

the Netherlands vs. Germany.

Germany to go ahead through a dodgy penalty in the first minute.

The Netherlands to equalize in the first half, typical Van the Man close range tip-in.

Headed winner in the 88th minute by central defender Boulahrouz, Netherlands win 2-1.

Apart from that a game of no quality getting the rest of the world to moan about it for the next four years.

What ever happened to Northern Ireland? Aren't they part of the UK or Great Britian? If so is being planned that Northern Ireland can be given to the folks in Ireland.

They're part of the UK Craig. They beat England 2-1 recently in the WC Qualifying in Belfast

I honestly doubt they'd ever be part of Ireland again...
