Re: 2018 FIFA World Cup.
Yep, just checked it out. When did they change that ruling?

And Mr Lineker making gestures to the manager as he knew how upsetting it was for Gazza.

Re: 2018 FIFA World Cup.
Let’s hope Telegraph sports correspondent Sam Wallace (on screen now ) is right.
So far he has predicted the correct winners of all last 16 games, quarters and tonight’s semi.
He has tipped England to beat Croatia but hasn’t yet predicted the winner of the final.

Re: 2018 FIFA World Cup.
Didn't have a preference of who I'd want to play. Both teams were absolutely hesitant at times and that's understandable, I'd expect France to show the same hesitancy in the final and that absolutely suits us. Throw the kitchen sink at them but for the love of God don't play with that same hesitancy. France can be had. Bully them. Set pieces will be absolutely crucial. France will be concerned with marking the likes of Maguire, Kane and Stones so this is a good time to earmark another player for set pieces.
Get a good showing against Croatia to roll in with.

Well their defence coped very well with Belgium and as for midfield I think the general consensus is that both Pogba and Kante have had a good campaign thus far.

Personally l thought Martinez tinkered too much and played into the hands of France.

Re: 2018 FIFA World Cup.
France and England have both won the cup before so I'm hoping Croatia make it. Nice to spread it around a bit. Else France. Anyone but England. It would be unbearable for England to win.
I really don't care about the game but the way the media still go on about 1966... It's just a game, win - cheer, celebrate a bit then move on, lose - congratulate the winners, drink to their success and move on.

For someone who ‘really doesn’t care ‘ you seem to be making several anti England posts.

Democracy as we know means everybody can have a different view Jim even if one disagrees with it.

Re: 2018 FIFA World Cup.
TBH Den, if I REALLY didn’t care about something I wouldn’t waste my time posting negative comments about it. However to say ‘I really don’t care’ on one line and then ‘anyone but England’ on another is a total contradiction. Unless of course tweetipooh has Celtic ancestry, then it’s par for the course.

Re: 2018 FIFA World Cup.
Could have a team GB similar to the Olympics. Except Gareth Bale is the only person I can think of that'd make a squad filled with English players. Just have to make do with being hated.
