    Looking beyond the Japan or Colombia possibility the rest of the draw means England only likely to come up against Spain (semi final meeting potential) out of the big names before the final by finishing second.

    Belgium are now on the side of the draw where they may get one or more of France, Argentina, Uruguay, Portugal, Brazil.

    Quite some difference.

    Of course England are capable of going out to a 'lesser' team such as Iceland in the last Euro. So Colombia, Sweden, Croatia, Denmark, Switzerland are not necessarily an easier opponent.

    Yeah well thats the choke point. But once you get past Columbia, it's almost like Brexit, sunny uplands etc.

    On a serious note:
    The other side of the draw isn't good.

    Maybe someone should start a thread with his top 15 flounces and we can vote for the best?

    CUK is a far better forum without him ruining it and I wish he would f00k off for good.
    Well sorry I annoyed you by predicting what was going to happen

    I rate Columbia. Would have preferred Japan. But if we can't beat Columbia we don't deserve to win the world cup. End of story.

    My respect for him grows by the minute.
    If England win against Colombia.
