You shouldn't!
It is a great day for New Zealand.

again, the ONLY reason Europe had 15 was because one was a host nation.. by your rationale, France hosting and qualifying automatically should have lessened the UEFA spot by 1 and they would have only had 13 qualified nations and a hostThommybhoy said:You think it's fair for Asia to have eaqual amount of places as South America?
I'd want it like this, IMO it would be most fair:
15 Europe
3 North America
0/1 Oceania since Australia joined Asian quals
5 South America
3/4 Asian
5 Africa.
Host in certain continent gives one less contender from quals from that continent.
I'm afraid it will go even worse if Blatter stays in change.
We might see even more teams from which nobody knows a single player in their team if they are not from that particular country.

as for not knowing any players on a team, when was the last time "most" knew of any Saudi players, or Korean players (at the time), or Iranian players, or Trinidadian players, or even Costa Rican players?
it's been that way since they expanded it to 32 teams from 24.. i've no problem with it..
your just upset because Croatia didnt qualify... :wink:

We threw away qualification. Andrews is a useless Blackburn lump of s**t.

Agree on O'Shea. Disagree on Andrews, not a fan usually but I thought him and Whelan did as much as you could ask of them. Keane, Duff, St.Ledger, O'Shea can all go f**k themselves though.
Lassana Diarra went from being a player I dislike to one I hate with a passion last night. Hope the c**t breaks his legs and never plays again, classless midget.
3 places for Concacaf is a disgrace it amounts to a free passage for the USA & Mexico.Thommybhoy said:You think it's fair for Asia to have eaqual amount of places as South America?

Del Boy said:Also seeing you were at the match, I take it you missed Dunphy's usual rant.
He spouted some amount of s**t about Gallas and proceeded to show highlights some of which were 2-3 years old(eg Birmingham and Fulham) to show he was a weak link, and that Doyle and Keane can take advantage.
Just like they did in the PL then.. :roll:
Done the usual Andy Reid routine afterwards and said we gave them the game.
Bigg - well duh, its called the WORLD Cup, not the Euros with a sprinkling of South American teams (Brazil, Argentina and maybe someone like Paraguay).. if it were simply the top teams by ranking, half the teams that annually make it to the WC would never make it.. (can you imagine seeing T&T or N. Korea or New Zealand in a WC that was based on seeding?)Biggus said:3 places for Concacaf is a disgrace it amounts to a free passage for the USA & Mexico.
They should come out and admit that its global representation they want to achieve and not the highest standard of football because if it was an open unseeded draw 90% of the qualifiers would be from Europe.
