We on here had nothing to do with things gone by in the past. My ancestors were peasants who did what they were told, or else.
Why not have a 'nice' attitude and stop stirring it at every opportunity?
Oh, and respect Hector and change your avatar (not to mine :) )
And what is this all about ????

It's like the chap I was stood next to in the Gents after our win aganist Sweden who said "Well butt it's like this I don't minds you going through, but see I've got £20 on Belgium to win at 20-1."

Don't have any money on Belgium Cat :) I really want England to win, but not sure if they're as good as Belgium, may not be as good as Croatia either...we will see on Wednesday....

I think England can do it - it's just there are 4 teams who've shown enough skill, gumption and received a good portion of luck who all start even for me.

May the best, or luckiest, win.

France v Belgium

I suspect one of these two nations will win the World Cup Final although I've fancied Croatia from the start. Belgium are the most impressive team in the tournament, the way they brushed Brazil to one side was frightening !

I was very impressed with Croatia v Argentina but other than that they've been no better thsn us. Pretty poor against Russia. We've nothing to fear.

I was worried that we'd get an ultra-cautious semi-final despite the talents of the two teams, but the opening 20 minutes have been very entertaining and of high quality.
