I actually missed last night's match because I had tickets for Goran Bregovic here in the fair city of Płock but from what i've seen and read it is the usual story-- lots of effort but disjointed and lacking cool heads (see Green and Heskey)<br /><br />Despite my growing lack of enthusiasm for the whole circus, I will still be supporting England but it would be nice to see Spain finally win the WC. As usual, I will also be cheering for Paraguay.<br /><br />Why? Because they're Paraguay!<br /><br />PS: Word verification says 'nonce'.

They lack both world class talent and, like the rest of England from politics to the economy, it represents a mediocre line up with deluded supporters and cheerleaders who still haven't got used to the fact that England is a shoddy and second rate nation. <br /><br />Football kitsch, blubbing people whining "it's ours 'n' it cumin' 'ome' will not do anything to divert attention away from facing hard facts. I dislike the way football has gone from being a game to a kind of over-hyped part of what New Labour called the "feel good factor".<br /><br />In fact, for the last decade I have totally drifted away from football and now have zero interest in it, though I suppose the idiot Martin Jacques in the Guardian will interpret the rise of new football teams in the World Cup to anti-colonial rebellion etc etc.Undergroundmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01860176024061937664noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17766817.post-24757240336624110882010-06-13T06:20:10.415+01:002010-06-13T06:20:10.415+01:00All I know for sure is that it won't be the US...All I know for sure is that it won't be the USA, even though they won a moral victory in today's draw with England. While the USA has some good players, they just aren't that good as a team.Douglashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15146665485840381349noreply@blogger.com
