Yes! I love these end of term events! I've been to four of 'em. I keep banging on about the subject but I'm still hoping that one of these upcoming ones will be brought back to somewhere local. I suspect otherwise that I won't be fit to see one in my lifetime.
I always support England, then The Fatherland. Then anyone local. I'm hoping that Belgium do well too.

 

I support England but have always had a liking for the Dutch and Germany.

Maybe England as Ireland aren't there... [ well, Rooney is Irish  ]

Have always liked the Dutch, lovely football and they're a bit mad with the infighting  

 

There's always a few teams steal your heart so I'll wait to see what happens. Love the whole build up and the 24 hr coverage when its on.

 

 

England to reach the quarter finals and lose on penalties

 

Germany to beat Brazil in the final on penalties 5-4

 Moonie that might well happen...  start awful... pick up and look promising.... get everyone's hopes up... ends in 's

It will and does Rog

We never ever learn  Moonie  

 

A Germany v Brazil final would be amazing b.t.w.!!

 

 

 

I was really hoping that the South American teams would take an early exit, but for sheer entertainment Germany v Argentina has everything.

I'm not really a huge football fan, much prefer cricket, but enjoy the spectacle of the World Cup so will enter into the spirit of the thing.  I hope England do well but suspect they will be 'home before the postcards' as the saying goes.

 

I'm hoping that the Italians do well (not least because I've always found them to  have rather nice legs).

 

Need someone to 'boo', too.  Are the French there?  

Didn't they scrape through? Just like last WC, when they handballed their way in at the expense of Ireland. Boooooooooo!

I normally boo Brazil, Argentina, and obviously Portugal. A highlight of the 2006 World Cup was being in the Hamburg fanzone with lots of French fans. They cheered us against Portugal, who were the least popular team in the competition, and we cheered them against Brazil. Happy days!
I was actually at the previous game in Hannover when France beat Spain. Happy Days!

Ah yes I remember that, Roger.  I felt so sorry for the Irish.

 

My chap's team won't be at the party but he will be supporting England and probably Holland.  We both rather hope that the Germans will be on the plane home before they get chance to take the tops off their suntan lotion but that isn't going to happen, is it?

I quite like the Germans... they have their domestic league in order without any of the financial madness of the Premier League, and it actually seems to be run for the benefit of the fans there 

 

Don't know why but Spain annoy me... want someone to knock them off their perch for some reason 

 

 

This will be the first competition since 2002 that we have missed being in Germoney. It's a great place to watch football and I hope they go all the way!

 

I'm not keen on the Spanish side or the Portuguese, but I have always disliked the ex ManU player Ronaldo.

 

I also think the more Latin a side is the more they like to hit the deck looking for a cheap decision.
