World Cup Warming Up!


At last, the World Cup is shaking itself, stretching, yawning, and waking up. The French, however, were still fast asleep as the Mexicans poured through them like flood water in the Cote d'Azur.

I do believe I heard the Mexican crowd tonight as well, the vuvuzelas seem to be losing their appeal as Bafana Bafana stagger on the ropes.

Tell me all you England knockers, why was our 3-1 warm up victory over this Mexico team such a bad performance?

Because England did not play well, Mexico was not the same team we saw tonight and England was lucky to win 3-1 on the night. Having said that, France were a disgrace tonight! By comparison to the French, perhaps England are not as bad as I first thought. But, they still have to play good football if they have it in them. I will reserve my final judgement until tomorrow night then. Now that Greece finally won a game I can be more relaxed! Who knows England may surprise us too.

Sav, reserve your judgement until we play a decent team! This Mexico team is a goodish team. We started slowly against them but swept them to one side in the second half!

Ok. The way this thing is going it is very likely that England will play Germany soon. That will be a real good test.

Come on England!! I'm predicting a 3 nil scoreline.

Come on HF, you watched the Mexico game, it wasn't a real 3-1.

We won 3-1 mate.

Don't you feel even the slightest concern in saying that? I don't know what's happened to you.

England will win the next two games and top the group but their feet will need to be firmly fixed to the ground. It is not a difficult group and the next stage of the competition will be really testing. We cannot afford to get carried away.

As I keep saying Stani, we are going to win the World Cup.
