Do we know times of matches yet?

That last spot is so boring to me. Hoped for one of the African nations but Ukraine would be great. If its Wales or Scotland I will be very underwhelmed.

The Pope will announce them.

Iran will be desperate to put one on the 2 great satans. In geographical conditions that they’re used to. Very tough for USA and England

1 great Satan and Satan’s little helper.

If they’re healthy they can challenge for second in the group. They’ll defend and play on the counter, and they’re quite good at it. Lots of pace and ability in the wide areas with Buchanan and Davies, and a good front man in David.

Interesting, here (Croatia) after the draw, most people already registered 3 points against them in their heads.
Rather its Morocco that is seen as kind of danger.

I guess its mostly because nobody here knows much about Canadian football and we are kings in underestimating our opponents. We'll see i guess

Hearing USA-England is the day after Thanksgiving? Tough choice here, do I watch the match or go mow down some old lady to get a $68 flatscreen TV?

How good is Canada, i know nothing about them outside Alphonso Davis from Bayern?

In current fifa ranking about the same as Scotland.
Capable of a few good results , an upset or two.

You should still beat them. But they won’t be as straightforward as many suspect.

England route to world cup victory

looks like

Round of 16 - Senegal or Netherlands

Quarter Finals - France

Semi Finals - Belgium or Portugal

Final - Brazil / Spain / Germany / Argentina

i think

so could be knock out tournament games against Netherlands, France, Belgium and Spain / Argentina or Brazil

England blew it last year at Wembley. While surprises always happen to ruin the best World Cup knockout plans, it would seem inevitable that England will have to beat a minimum of two heavyweights - if not four - to win the World Cup. Still, best concentrate on the group first. While they will be favourites to top it, it does have the ingredients for a hubristic cock-up of hilarious proportions - and it'll be an effective home match for the Iranians for starters. The Americans will raise their game against England and who knows what could happen if Wales, with Bale, a player superior to every English player, or the Scots could do. A draw for them is not beyond the pale. England to top the group, but I don't think it'll be anything like as handy as it was in Russia or at the Euro.

So subtract another 5 hours to get to the US East Coast and that’s 5am, 8am, 11am, and 2pm

We are quite a old team, young, pacey counter-attacking team (especially as we almost certainly gonna underestimate them) could very well be our doom. Anyway its gonna be fun, i don't think we ever played against them.

Its Word Cup after all, one African and one North American team is more fun then playing again vs Europeans.

Seriously? Somebody likes England for once? It's not Quite Eurovision now is it? Not drawn against Ireland, Luxembourg and some Oompah Band from Eastern Europe ... Nil Point!!
