It just all depends what age you are as to what your favourite World Cup will be. If England can reach the semi finals in this one, it will surely be up there with the greats

I’ve certainly got a new found respect for this England team after with standing the provocation the other night,digging in when we looked finished, and not bottling it in the shoot out!!

Messers Stones, Young, Alli, Dier and Maguire, I take back all I said,,,,,,,,until they play palace again anyway!!!

Really enjoying the whole World Cup and England putting one over on that dirty, cheating Whining lot has made it all the better!!

That last game was horrible, we looked the better side then at the end they suddenly looked great, worked together and pulled off a last minute miracle. It felt like a movie but where we are the bad guys and we all know how most of those movies end...

But we did it! I think we will beat Sweden in extra time, just a gut feeling...

What do you mean us kemosabe

They do tan nicely though.

For those too young to remember the Lone Ranger and his faithful comrade Tonto (a native American):

The LoneRanger & Tonto are riding down into a box canyon. At the far end, the LoneRanger notices an army of Comanche Indians, in full war-paint, frowning down from the cliff walls at him.

Turning to his left he notices a great number of very mad looking Arapaho Indians staring down.

On his right he observes a host of Cherokee Indians peering at him over the rim of the canyon.

Looking behind, he sees every Apache brave in the world slowly creeping into the canyon, blocking the exit.

The LoneRanger turns to Tonto and says, "We're in a heap of trouble, Tonto!"

Tonto's nervous reply, "Uhh...who do you mean we, kemosabe?"

The World's gone crazy.

I quite happily criticise players for getting paid an obscene amount but to run around for 90 minutes in that sort of heat must take some doing.

It will be terrible. Will the grounds be open to the air or will they be closed and have air condition for the whole stadium? If not I do worry how the players will hold up to the extreme heat.
