Spain were my team during the Euro 2008 cup when Scotland failed to qualify. I only wish I'd put more than £5 on them to win! Bought their strip yesterday as I'm also a fan of their kit.
I'll be cheering England, and to a lesser extent Spain although if they play each other I will back England to the hilt.
the_pied_piper:
I am completely cynical and will not be supporting England because why would I support a team that contains players that I hate during the regular season?
But other than that WORLD CUP, WORLD CUP, WORLD CUP!!!
I am excited for it because regardless of support who doesn't like watching the best players in the world playing on the same pitch?
KaosPilot:
That is a very good point about the best players in the World. I am expecting cracking goals, amazing saves and lots of nail biting!
Inlander:
I'm expecting lots of skied shots and corners going way over everybody's heads because the designers of the Official Ball of the World Cup have sprinkled the balls with fairy dust to make them do magical corkscrews in flight like no other ball has ever done before it or some other dickery just like at the last World Cup.
Also Australia was the first team to South Africa! If this was the Amazing Race we'd already be world champions!

Barca have a lot of money and a great reputation with being one of the world's best club teams so there's always going to be stories surrounding them and considering Fabregas was brought up in their youth system and Arsenal are looking shaky without him once more it's really not surprising that this story has happened once again.

Yeah I can agree with all of that, but it is like a constant barrage of the club managers being dipshits because the club president is embarrassed over letting him go, their players being dipshits coming out and saying things like "oh, he is here for sure" or "he would fit in really well here" or "oh man, I can't wait to give him that first post-game handjob" or somesuch and the team manager saying "oh, we're not gonna pay too much for him". And then there's Arsenal on the other end saying "hey uh, we don't even have a fucking bid for him yet, what's going on?"
It's all bullshit mind games to drive his price down by trying to make it a done deal before the bid is even in. The problem is that it's so goddamned blatant that everyone involved can see that that is what they are doing, and people are getting the shits to the point where maybe Wenger's gonna stamp his foot and say "no, this isn't gonna happen", and if that's the case he may as well just use Cesc as a waterboy or a benchwarmer or someshit next season for all the good he'll do us in the state he'll be in.
