First one to say USA, Algeria and Slovenia gets a slap.
For me :
England - Obvious reasons
Ghana - I always pick up an African team to support at the WC and me and Eoin randomly decided to support them lol
Holland - Love their football and Sneijder is my favourite football player
Portugal - Because I got them in the TiBB Sweepstake

1st - England of course.
Joint 2nd - Holland always loved them + love RVP and Spain loved them for a long time and love villa and fabregas.
4th - Italy because i got in tibb sweepstake.
This will change thought because im setting up our sweepstake with my mates and will probs get a different team.

Just England I guess, because of...living here...and the sweepstake.
I always have a bit of a soft spot for Japan though.

Not that I care but England but if I had to pick.
England obviously, but apart from that I'd like to see Greece, Netherlands and Ivory Coast do well.

Japan, Ghana and USA. 
Japan because i'm a quarter japanese.
USA because i'm a quater american.
Ghana, cause I thought they were epic in the 2006 world cup, and hopefully they'll deliver again.
Sorry not supporting England here, long live Cymru! :tongue:

Without England Wales would look like Boratville :p
You would rather support a cheating country on the other side of the world than a country within your own country :conf:
Brits should be supporting Brits lol.

Algeria because I have them in the sweepstake here but also nearly every minnow team. I want upsets, I want the big boys to fail. Italy, Germany and France going out first round (know it's not going to happen) would make for an excellent tournament.
Dark horses in the competition I think are South Korea. They will do well and cause a bit of trouble.

28-05-2010, 06:50 AM
the African teams, Argentina, usa, and France.
i know, I know too many.  But its like this, France and Argentina have always been my favorite teams so, I always support them.   And Ive got to back all the African teams as always.    No Senegal, this time around.  Gutted not to be in the WC held in the continent, but hopefully one of them will go far, maybe all the way for once.  And the USA, because people have the misconception that they dont know anything about FB.   But its actually the #1 sport for under 15 year olds.  And the core that play football are pretty good.
USA won't get out of the group stages
I agree with Linda. I don't live in England therefore I do not have to support England.
Yeah I know fair enough but if you're gonna support someone then why not other Brits? I don't get why people would rather support Korea & Argentina than a country within their OWN country seeing as a win would benefit us all. Not for me to say though really :hugesmile:
I don't class myself as British i class my self as English which is probably the case for Linda and Ross with Scotland and Wales
lily.
28-05-2010, 01:52 PM
Correct Andy. 
I don't class myself British either. I class myself Scottish.  
And, it's like an age-old tradition for English/Scots to be enemies in sport. It's all a bit tongue-in-cheek really.

28-05-2010, 09:47 PM
England. I think we will win it as we are the best team. 
Scotland haven't qualified for a major tournament this century.

Exactly. I'm not British, I'm Welsh. That's the way I see it and will always see it anyway.

1) The Netherlands :dance:  ( grew up there <3 would LOVE to see them win it for once!!)
2) Spain ( I'd bet on them to win if i had the money + i love me some Torres ;)  )
3) England (just to not piss off anyone here:D )
England and Japan ftw. <3

Really, if  you think England are better than Spain, Argentina or half a dozen other teams I could name you're deluded.
It's alway the same, you hype up your chances and never fail to dissappoint.
Think you could win by all means. Think you should win, or will win - NOT A CHANCE!
If you had to pick an 11 from the Prem to win the WC, maybe 2 English players would get in it - Lampard and Rooney.

England are better than Spain, Agentina, etc. You will see in a months time when Ferdinand's lifting the cup.
It's alway the same, you hype up your chances and never fail to dissappoint..
The other World Cups took place in Summer, which meant England struggled with the heat, this one is in winter. 
Think you could win by all means. Think you should win, or will win - NOT A CHANCE!
If you had to pick an 11 from the Prem to win the WC, maybe 2 English players would get in it - Lampard and Rooney.
Nonsense. All eleven would be English.

The usa are far from being better than england.
USA won't get out of the group stages
I think they will. I think it'll be England and USA who move on to the next round.

I got that "arse" taken off my signature too - I was told it was provocative that the non-english are supporting ANYBODY ELSE
I have a personal emigration plan - going to go move to Buenos Aires if the Engerlish win World Cup as it'll be on 24/7 from that country.
Fortunately they cannot score against Japan and need own goals so still able to live at home.
