gcw “The only one I disagree with is Switzerland/Dermo. His alleged prog credentials and clubbing CV are too strong to be compared to a team who, whilst admittedly solid, have never gone deep in a tournament”

Corrected that for you. I still have no idea whether anything he has ever said has been true

    Haha I’m feeling for you Benson. Must be some sleepless nights involved.

    Cankles-McJeggings That is Edwand haha. Probably when he was an arsenal fan when they won the league

    Though it’s a Barnsley shirt.

      bosstrabs Just like Louis van Gaal, a lot of the time no-one knows what the fuck he’s on about.

      Lol, cap doffed, dave! Excellent stuff from beginning to end…

        1. Wally - Argentina - seems strong in attack but has no real defence. Just like the Nazis who settled in Argentina. Just like Wally’s responding to sportwashing accusations.
          1. Dave Bosstrabs - Denmark - Love of niche branded sportswear incorporating loud designs. Talks a good game but usually ends up going home early (with his last half pint lobbed in the plant pot).
          1. Zackster - USA - a fresh team saying ‘OK Boomer’ to the previous generations. Recently scandalised by accusations of price gouging for tickets ($168) – the same approach Zack takes to taking rent from the destitute and needy.
          1. Jules - Croatia - beautiful wives. Hates gays.

          bosstrabs
          Lol.

          My ironing detector went batshit in the football thread yesterday 💣

            Wal silently FEWMIN, forcing his fingers to the keyboard to type a lower-case lol there

            Don’t pat yourself on the back too hard there lad. You’ll do yourself an injury.

            Lol! Nice work, Dave.

            bosstrabs 7 Grant - won the first ever board Power Rankings in 1934 (18 years after he was born). Always there or thereabouts.

            Fyi - Italy aren’t even “there” at the 2022 World Cup…

                I’d suggest Japan as an alternative for Grant given it has the highest percentage of its population aged 65 or older of any proper country.

                hugopal That’s a picture of Uruguay, who did indeed win the first ever world cup. 1930 not 34.

                    Amazingly, that means Grant was actually born in 1912.
