Australia look considerably shitter than they did in 2006. I give them very little chance of getting out of their group.

got the link for that thread?

Went on an American 'soccer' forum and the had a 150+ page thread dedicated to the game against us, full of bait out dated stereotypical pictures (bad teeth, queen, tea, ugly english women....) as well as references to the war of independence. They claim we don't shut up about 1966 and how we should move on, yet constantly talk up the war like it has any relevance to today, IRONY.
English arrogance when it comes to football is such a myth. Sure, you get the odd idiot who probably doesn't watch football run about shouting 'ITS OUR YEAR, ITS OUR YEAR' draped in a St.George's flag. But for the majority of the population we're probably the most pessimistic nation, I reckon half of them actually want England to fail just so they can moan.
