    World Cup predictions - anyone?

    Not that I know anything about soccer, but I'm willing to predict that Germany will win the World Cup - based on home advantage.

    Anyone else willing to hazard a guess?

      A Sangoma on the TV this morning reckoned Spain was a good call.
      Not knowing the first thing about this I'll go with the bone pusher. With all the bull around this, they must be a favourite.
      So its a Spanish German Final with Spain coming out as winner.

        Well, it's not going to be Bafana Bafana that's for sure I'd go with Brazil.

                I reckon that team with the socks, boots, pants and shirts on who has that guy in the goal will win...

                The other guys will come second, you know, those okes with the other colored boots etc.

                Wat are we talking about again?

                  Of all the guys on our site I would have thought you would have this one mapped out Chris. You strike me as someone with a lot of "Ball" Sense!!

                    Well Done Ghana!

                    Well done Ghana for giving the Czechs a

                    Nice one.

                    As for a prediction, I'll go for a side no-one's picked yet. Argentina for me.

                      And Spain goes down to France. The Sangoma needs new bones.

                      Despite going down to Brazil, I really liked Ghana's style of play. Exciting stuff. Well done Ghana on such a good showing.

                        My 10 cents worth...

                        I must admit that it is hard too choose a winning side but if I have 2...

                        Brazil are definitely the favorites, with Germany hot they're heels. But I feel that France might surprise people and make it to at least the semis. Argentina has always bin a team close to my heart and I'm glad they are doing so well but I fear the road is coming to an end for them in the next match.

                        In all I think with so many teams getting the thumbs up from us makes this World cup an enjoyable one, mainly because we don't have our own team to support, so my guess is that no matter who plays the finals or who wins, it will surely stay the topic of discussions and "I told you so's" in all general conversations for weeks.

                        Enjoy the closing moments all!

                        Let the Battle begin!

                          Italy next

                          Can only assume the Sangoma hasn't been to Europe. He did have us going though as Spain had the best 1st round results and hadn't lost for the last 25 games or so.

                          Ok - so now switching allegience - I'll now support Italy next - Yes I can feel it in my bones now - Sangoma has been fired as his bones were obviously too old.

                            More like "sit on the fence."

                            So Candy, your "boot" is still in. Inspired pick right now.

                              Off the Fence...

                              To Dave,

                              Your on line too much, don't think your reading clearly enough...
                              If you have a look you'll see that I mentioned that my team is not there therefor I will only predict the outcome.
                              Guess what, so far I've bin spot on. Brazil was everyones favorites, France made it too the semis and Argentina's game came to an end in the next round.
                              If you're upset that I'm so close then I'm sorry, but you didn't have to get nasty .
                              I reckon that from here its gonna be a France - Germany Final with France being victorious!
