iran usa and potentially the jocks . No history there

 

[CissesUnderpants9]

Best group we have had for sometime.

Fully expecting Jermaine Jenes agent to get him the gig to hand over the winners trophy...

Are Korea Republic just rebranded South Korea?

When did that happen?

Always has been Republic of Korea. We differentiate geographically so we can tell them apart, i.e. the baddies from the goodies.

North Korea is officially the Democratic People's Republic of Korea

That’s a great draw for England, but especially for the USA. If everyone gets healthy, they’ll comfortable have the second best squad in that group. That was the worry for them. They’ll be good enough to give England some useful preparation, but it should be pretty low-pressure for England.

World cup can bring peace

Iran v USA

I recall them playing each other at a previous World Cup, and the Iranian captain giving the American one multiple gifts at kick off.

Apart from getting NZ/Costa Rica, it couldn't have gone much better

We couldn’t because CR are same federation as USA

First rule of international relations: countries with the word "democratic" in their title aren't democratic.

Today is the day we find out who England grind out a dour group stage against. The draw kicks off formally at 1738 U.K. time (very precise that), and is on the BBC Red button and the website

England are in pot 1. As the hosts are bizarrely. But we could get Germany who are in pot 2

Pot 4 includes the winners of Scotland/Ukraine/Wales and there are still 2 further unknowns

Australia/UAE playoff v Peru
NZ v Costa Rica

The very idea of a World Cup in Qatar is absurd as we all know

This World Cup can fuck right off.

 

[CissesUnderpants9]

Last world cup easier

We will find out when we get started in November, now we need our sacks of shite to get in the playoffs and f***ing win it.

I'm just pleased we didnt draw Canada as I would have it non stop who I was supporting

There was one of the TSN lads who is English but lives here now stating if they were drawn he would support Canada the absolute whopper
