DUDE Posted November 14, 2007 Share Posted November 14, 2007 What you wouldn't do for a beer, hey? ;) lol! I promise they are my genuine predictions.On a serious note football is getting really good lately, imo. It appears that we're coming out of the elite-dominated-game. Every where you look results are hanging on a thread! At International level, there's: Israel vs Russia Norway vs Turkey Scotland vs Italy. These game's are "finals"! England relying on others and Italy having to avoid defeat against an in-form Scotland to qualify.... it's unheard of. It's happening at club level too. Lazio vs Olympiakos (winner is almost guaranteed qualification) Liverpool vs Porto & Marseille (last years finalists and winners from 3 years ago have to win the last 2 games to qualify). Rangers vs Lyon also setting up to be a final type game. It's great for football. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DUDE Posted November 18, 2007 Share Posted November 18, 2007 Current pots according to contra.gr Pot 1 Austria, Swiss, Greece, Holland Pot 2 Croatia, Germany, Italy Czech Pot 3 England, Portugal, Sweden, Poland Pot 4 Romania, France, Spain, Turkey England, Portugal, Turkey have not officially passed yet. Worst case scenario:Greece Germany England France Best case scenario: Greece Czech Rep Poland Romania. Unless we do get that best case scenario then the odds will seriously be stacked against us. Teams like Portugal and Turkey will be looking to get revenge if they draw us so things could be bad. The key however is avoiding England & France. If we draw any of them we are practically out.

Why should France and England each be a threat? France, Czech, Portugal and Spain were supposed to be threats to Greece in Euro 2004 and look what happened. The "weakest team" Greece played, Russia, were the biggest threat because they almost knocked Greece out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coldylan Posted November 21, 2007 Share Posted November 21, 2007 Mate, there is NO WAY England won't qualify. The media might want to sensationalise things to generate interest but you have too many top class players not to qualify. : ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
