[Mr Crosby]

He was on form last night.

Will England win the World Cup?

No. Next ...

[Dundeegeorge]

Why not?

Will England win the World Cup?

No. Next ...

Note I'm not disagreeing, merely asking. It is after all a competition held in Europe (indicates a European win), where the host country (while usually winning) have a fairly crap team at the moment.

Because England is not good enuff, init?

[Dundeegeorge]

And when has that ever had much to do with it?

Germany 1974
Argentina 1978
France 1998
Brazil 1994
Worthy winners? I think not.

They won, didn't they? Does the English team have that winning mentality?
No. Germans and Brazilians EXPECT to win penalties, we EXPECT to lose.

[Dundeegeorge]

So you think it's because the england team expect

to lose, or at least not to win.
Fair enough. You may well be correct, but I would hope that they get over that, after all the team does contain a number of winners, and for some of them this is their last chance, so I hope they give it their best shot.
I thiink they have as much chance as almost everybody else in the competition this time round.
