England v USA

[Black_Apalachi]

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.

Yeah we'd probably give it some stupid name like 'The Miracle on Grass' even if we only won by a goal

BBC just said up to 20,000 England fans have traveled and will probably purchase tickets via the black market, so the majority will be English.

The two of the three most represented sides are playing in this game, USA have sold the second most tickets, England being third, and of course South African's have bought the most.

ITV said that 6,000 in the stadium, upto 12,000 supporting England around the area. Which one is right !

I don't think there's anywhere near 20,000 spare seats. Most will be taken by now by neutrals/Americans/English. There are probably a few thousand spare but I don't think 20,000. Who knows.

20,000 traveled, I'd be surprised if they weren't at least 10,000 English in the crowd inside the stadium.

Edit: Loads of places saying SWP starting ahead of Lennon. WHAT THE ****!!!

Yup that's the English way... put on someone older and slower for no apparent reason.

Well no we're kinda expecting to win so no point us going too mental about it. Besides, modesty is historically a British trait, especially compared with the US and a few other colony countries.

Yeeee but think of all the American and English fans out there who'll overpay the neutrals massively for a game like this and get themselves tickets.

They're gonna be at every bloody game with their hooters

I hope so!

Them horn things are the most annoying part, if its on bbc there may be commentary options so i dont have to listen to it. They dont stop either its just constant humming

[Black_Apalachi]

I hope so!

That best be sarcasm

[FlyingJesus]

No I think they're hilarious. SA fans are probably the best I've seen yet they were like mobbing the reporters and carrying them around like a crowdsurf last night

[Black_Apalachi]

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.
