I was actually going to a football pub tomorow to see norway vs italy but with my luck ( some of you know why ) . I am sure I wont be able to do so.

Group 1: zech Republic, Holland, Romania are the teams that I see going to the next stage. well those 3 will fight.. mainly just Holland and Chezch.. but Holland has bad luck on qualify don't they?. hmm. well I hope to see Holland going tru here with Romania but I am sure the czech will make it.

Group 2: mmm turkey .. Danmark seems to be faves here don't they? and will we see another great run by greece?.. gona be a nice group this.

Group 3 : . Portugal deffently faves on this one.. they should be taking theyr head over water though..

Group 4: France will go tru I think.. hehe would be nice to see faero island. though maybe ireland will make it..
I don't see the other teams as a WC team. they may have luck though.. oh and by others i mean israel and Fearo island.

Group 5: Italy are faves here but they have screwed up in the euro and the last WC now will they screw them self for the 3rd time?.. Of course I hope norway will get tru.. Slovenia to end 3rd there.. Scotland may also be a team to win? errr lets just say no.. Norway has beaten italy before and that was with semb and he sucked big time.. but we have to wait and see.. and of course this will be the group I'm gona have my eye on.

Group 6: You just need to get Scotland down there and you got your self a nice UK batle .. England has a nice group but we may get some suprises here.. I'm deffenty rooting or what's it called for england.

Group 7:.. belgium deservs to go to the WC.. spain are the faves maybe?.. belgium and spain to go WC.. why do i always say next stage? .. oh well.

Group 8.. . now wouldnt it be great to have . Norway, sweden, and danmark in the WC ( it would for me ). all you other people are crazy if you think other wise
Even better would be. ( Norway, sweden, danark., Iceland, Finland. Faero island ). now that would be something.. ..

I cant wait for France and Ireland. We need to beat Cyprus by quite a few goals, will be hard with a depleted midfield, no Keano, No Matty Holland or Miller. We need a good game from Kilbane.

France Vs Israel is on tonight! good luck Israel! my fingers are crossed for you!

It would be amazing for israel to beat france.
They need all the luck they can get though

Especially if the Czech Republic is involved. And with all the youngsters we have in the team ... all the luck to us, 'cause I think we'll need it.

I don't watch the qualifications, but I am interested in seeing how Italy will end up doing. Hm.

Great performance by Rep of Ireland, what a goal by Andy Reid. Clinton Morrison finally ended his 778 minute goal drought, he played superb.

Poor Northern Ireland, Its not fair.

Whoa. I was just listening to the Austrian Radio and they were like "Well, we lost it. It's 2-0"..

15 min later I go down and I decide to just check out the way the Austrians are playing and I looked at the score 5 times before actually BELIEVING that it was 2-2. I was flipping out!! My region used to belong to Austria, and I love Austria so much. I more or less felt as happy as I would have if Italy would have won. I'm so proud of them. If they would qualify it would be AMAZING. I'm keeping my fingers crossed. I suppose I will be watching the qualifications afterall.

And whoohoo Italy won as well.

This makes up not being able to go out because I *might* get sick.

Amazing result for Austria, I couldnt believe it, what a clanger by James, living up to his calamity name. France and Israel only drew 0-0 so thats a great result for Ireland!
