Is Germany's group the only one with three top 20 ranked teams?

Looks the toughest group to me.

England have, yet again, managed this find themselves in an easy group. Mind you, I thought that with Iceland and co.

 4 years ago it was England, Italy, Uruguay and Costa Rica.

Even two years ago ("Iceland and co.") it was Russia, Slovakia and Wales.

That's what I mean.

Piss easy group which I thought England would win easily = 1 win in three.

Never mind. Iceland in the last 16 will be easy = embarrassed by the minnows.

Anyone thinking of going to the World Cup? I’d have no desire to watch England, but just to be there would be great even as a complete neutral.
No. The first world cup since USA 94 that I will miss. Not willing to go to a totally racist country as I  experienced during my 3 day trio to see Villa play CSKA. Horrible place horrible people.

I suspect she’ll be upset if I arrange for a big screen to be put up during the service.

I'm at the Bromsgrove v Coventry United FA Vase. Anyone want to guess the first song the Coventry fans sang?
