Title: Slovenia........
Post by: Banjax on 23 June 2010, 08:33:44
...........came through a very tough qualification group (Slovakia, N. Ireland, Czech Republic, Poland and San Morino). They finished 2nd and had a play-off against Russia, lost the first leg 2-1 and still qualified (winning 1-0 and going through on away goals) so they're a tough side who are very difficult to break down.....exactly like USA and Algeria  :o

If Slovenia needed a win I'd be confident England would see them off - but they don't  :(

On the plus side - I've been wrong on the last two games  :y



as a side issue, the economy would take a big hit if England exit early.....something we can't afford right now - I reckon a few million quid, ahem, "left" in a paper bag in the Slovenia dressing room would be money well spent  :y

Slovenia is not a great team, but that is their main advantage cause everyone underestimates them.
They have spiriit I must admitt that.

I think we are... Andy Murray gets lots of support ;) ;)

But then you're right, I doubt England would be cheering on the Scots in the football (if they were good enough to qualify :o) ;D ;D ;D

We know we are rubbish  ;D ;D ;D ;D  ... England ( or more like the media ) think its a god given right that you are going to win ... they should have put the cup in a box and posted it to England before the games even started .... Sky News think its headline news that the team are training  :-? :-?
The media blow it all out of proportion then slaughter the team and or manager when they dont win .... its very entertaining to listen to the post mortems  ;D ;D ;D ;D
Now where did i put my Slovenia flag ?? :P :P :P :P

I think the only good thing about tonights match is that there is no third place
It's also impressive that Rob Green has equalled Gerrard in the scoring front for England in this years competition.

Rumour has it that Fabio Capello is playing Buzz Lightyear and Woody up front to give Shrek and Donkey a rest  ;D

I thought that I was doing rather well - thanks to Banjax - of being able decipher this new found language that explains the nuances of modern-day soccer/football.

I'm afraid to say HJD, that this one has gone right over my head ;D ;D :-/

Not from me he doesn't - bloody spoilt brat.
Doesn't matter if he's Scottish, English or Martian, I can't stand the bloke!

I do so love the opportunity for the Scots to harangue the English about sport on forums - it's the only place they're ever likely to win!  ;D ;D ;D

OK, maybe the Scots have a decent rugby team.
And a golfer? Should do, they invented the game, didn't they?

the amount of people who support anyone but England
They are our neighbours and should be rooting for them  given our own team is too wanky to even qualify  sadly most of us dont

Team I like, Manager I like, Media Gary Lineker and Adrian Chiles have the right amount of trepidation, good humour and hope  :y

Talksport: Adrian whats-his-name is a wind up merchant, Parry is an idiot, Brazil and Townsend keep them on an even keel tho   ;)

I hope Engand win - because if they don't, then the papers will destroy them after building up false hope that they're world-beaters....as usual  :(
