Alright cool, I'll be up for it.
On the subject of the world cup though, I can't wait to see The Nederlands final 23. I really hope Huntelaar goes.

He should do, Huntelaar is the only real striker in the team if Van Nistelrooy does get left out.

As was Huntelaar. Were they not?

He was, but it's not impossible for him to be in the 23 despite being left out of the 30. Perhaps Huntelaar will be left out letting Kuyt or v.Persie to play as the strikers though?

Although Ruud is just coming back from injury, his game never relied on pace, he should have got it every day of the week over Huntelaar

Huntelaar was in the provisional squad by Van Nistelrooy wasn't, though Van Marwijk has said that he hasn't ruled him out and he could still make it into the 23 man squad. Which I hope he does, Huntelaar doesn't really have the needed experience for the World Cup

I'm up for the predictions league ;D. I'll get it started on the 1st June when the squads are announced. I was thinking about awarding bonus points for correctly predicting a shock win, what do you guys think? |

Nah, I'd just say like a point if u guess the right team to win and 3 or 5 if you guess the exact score, something like that. Who are we to say who deserves to be underdogs  |

Well the rules of my old Prediction league were;
1 point for a correct score
3 points for a perfect score

Why not at a weekend? South Africa's time zone is only 1 hour ahead, they are starting the match in the middle of thier afternoon as well. Damn it! |

Thought it was like 5  That's really stupid. Think of how hot it will be for them playing at that time. I'm pushing towards Brazil to win this because of the heat. Thing I loved about Euro 2008 is watching games while having a bbq  |

I think Spain will win it, if they play full on all the time and put the chances away theres no one in the world can stop them. I will back England as a Welshman and being half English  But I will be happy if the best footballing side win, I just wanna see exciting games, I'm so excited, think this is my 4th World Cup so yeah real excited. |
