Great… I mean Oh greeaat its the world cup!

01 Dec 2009 by Peter Morgan in 2010 FIFA World Cup

So another qualification journey has ended causing heart ache for many, elation for a few and a downright sense of loathing from the rest.

England have their foot in the door

11 Jun 2009 by Ian Palmer in 2010 FIFA World Cup

As the saying goes, “You can’t win the lottery if you don’t buy a ticket.” Well, England are one win away from their ticket to the 2010 World Cup in South Africa, and it would be a disaster of monumental proportions to blow it now.

England: more points, but more doubt

08 Jun 2009 by Ian Palmer in 2010 FIFA World Cup

It’s sometimes hard to criticize a team that wins its World Cup Qualifier 4-0 on the road after a long domestic season, but to me, England still don’t seem to be very convincing, even after today’s (June 6th) comfortable win in Kazakhstan.
The starting lineup wasn’t too bad. Although I’m not really sure how good Matthew [...]
