I'd like Holland to win but not if they get subsumed by the dark side like they did in the final four years ago.

Purely from a "because I got them in the sweep" point of view I'd like to see Germany win it, it's been a great World Cup and hopefully the remaining games will be cracking.


I would have liked to have seen Switzerland win yesterday although I didn't really enjoy the game, both teams' gameplan seemed to centre around Messi, I also think the Swiss would have won the penalty shootout
 
@zand Ross McCormack has handed in a transfer request, rumours are that he wants to come to West Ham, any inside news???

lol afraid not...The way I feel about LUFC at the moment I say 'good luck' to him, I'd like to see him play next season, so West Ham would suit me fine.

So much expectations on his shoulders, pleased you to thought that the Swiss would have won had it come down to penalties

Argentina have been far from convincing for me (the same with Brazil!), I thought that the Swiss as a team seemed far more focused but didn't perhaps have the technical ability to outwit Argentina. Also the Swiss keeper is apparently one of the best penalty stoppers in the world!
 


Have to agree with you there.
 
Only just heard on the news that Murray is out, no interest in tennis but such a shame for the lad.

The squad are apparently being told to bring packed lunch to training and they're having to wash their own kit

Now if only I lived closer....I would wash their kit for them. I like washing kit.

My wife used to hate washing the kit, but if I didn't bring it home it wouldn't get washed, I'm far more liberated now, I'd be able to do it myself these days
 
I understand that the Spanish want a bit(e) of him now. - don't moan I try my best!
 
So now we know who the semi finalists are. I have to be honest, I'm very disappointed in the Dutch, they started this tournament so positively beating the European and world champions 5-1, and now they've resorted to what appear to be petulant tactics. And Arjen Robben clearly has a serious illness, the poor fella can barely stand up.......
 
Ok you knew it was coming
Im getting used to this.
Not the greatest match
But

HUP HUP HOLLAND

2 to go, then I'm gonna go ballistic ????
 
I still yearn after the 'good ole days' when teams did go out to play and actually play to win, I know not all, and European tactics are different to South American etc,,............. but I do hope we are in for a cracking final with lots of goals (well more than 1 or 2 anyway)
 
This is just brilliant
(it probably makes more sense if you've seen "Charlie Bit My Finger" on YouTube)

 
Germany 4 - 0 up in 25 mins, who could have predicted that!!!!!!
