no england is going to lose 1-0 to usaaaaaaa
its blatent england are crap anyway
I was at the game when England beat them 3-0 at Wembley but there obv won't be a repeat of that. USA beat Spain in the Confederations Cup last year and are a very strong and organised side not to be taken lightly. I hope Lennon is up against Spector, Lennon absolutely pisses all over him every time they face eachother.
Spector is terrible. Well when I watch him he is anyway.
Errm..
2-1 England.
I disagree Jack, I am very optimistic and I predict a 3-0 England win. Like the guy said on SSN, the only biggish game we've played in the last 18 months or so, that meant anything was against Croatia (who before you say they're not a big team, have quality players and it was because of them we didn't qualify for Euro 08) we beat them proper!! That was the only game they've been in a must win frame of mind. The USA game will be the same. People have lost their optimism after the recent friendlies which mean sweet **** all.

Edit: Loads of places saying SWP starting ahead of Lennon. WHAT THE ****!!!
I reckon they're well up for it and one or two of ours could be a bit shaky so I'm sticking with 2-1 us
3-0 england. people are overrating usa, yeh they're a decent team i watched the confeds cup last year and the quality was bad though :s
to be honest i have no idea what will happen and thats what this sport is like, i mean look at the 1st two matches. how many of you predicted those results? I will admit I want USA to win because if England win, knowing the English you'll bloat about it for years.
Americans would be worse, I'd never be able to go on XBL again.Quote:

And yeah Jack, I will never go on Live again in my life.
I can imagine it nowQuote:

Kick off will start late at 19:39, USA will turn up at 19:41 and claim victory.
Let's hope we don't have to listen to those stupid trumpets for 90 minutes. It sounds awful on the TV.
They are probably going to be used in every game. Extreamly annoying but you get used to them.Quote:

I wonder whether we'll be able to hear the band playing too.Quote:

Bloody neutruals, dont even have a clue, just come to blow their stupid horns.
Yeah we'd probably give it some stupid name like 'The Miracle on Grass' even if we only won by a goalQuote:

They're gonna be at every bloody game with their hootersQuote:

They're funny to watch but they're a piss take to listen to while you're trying to concentrate on a footy match. Hope the yanks don't geg in on the act as well
Read an interview with Pienaar and apparently England are South Africa's second team. At least somebody likes us.
Oh testicles, tickets closed at 3pm to watch it in town! damn this!
The South-African hooters remind me of the BFG's dream-blower thing in the book :P
I'm gonna be optimistic with 3-1 to England.
2-1 or higher for England.
Easy.
Green
Johnson King Terry Cole
Lennon Gerrard Lampard Milner
Heskey Rooney
Howard, Cherundolo, DeMerit, Onyewu, Bocanegra, Dempsey, Bradley, Clark, Donovan, Findley, Altidore.
my hopes rest with these.
We will win, know why? Our flag is better than theirs.
GET IN THERE GERRARDDDDDDDD
I wish death upon all involved at ITV HD
Brilliant.
I'm sick of the ITV Ad breaks.. haha.
USA scored, 1 all. What's he playing at? it rolled in!
