And would anyone mind if we please not see Howard Webb on an international pitch ever again?!?!

Larry first, Steven second, Vedad third. Well done, fellas. And thanks to all for participating.

‘Til 2014…

It’s down to four (people who have a chance to win the pool) http://johnrasnic.com/blog2010/2010/07/06/its-down-to-four-people-who-have-a-chance-to-win-the-pool/ http://johnrasnic.com/blog2010/2010/07/06/its-down-to-four-people-who-have-a-chance-to-win-the-pool/#comments Tue, 06 Jul 2010 02:18:18 +0000 Administrator http://johnrasnic.com/blog2010/?p=101 Please check my math, but I think it’s down to Larry (Holland), Hugh (Germany), Steven (Spain), or Ms. Barry Wishon (Uruguay).

2 – 2 http://johnrasnic.com/blog2010/2010/06/27/2-2/ http://johnrasnic.com/blog2010/2010/06/27/2-2/#comments Sun, 27 Jun 2010 14:53:59 +0000 Administrator http://johnrasnic.com/blog2010/?p=88 Best first half of the tournament. A disgrace that FIFA hasn’t introduced goal-line technology. Sepp Blatter needs to go.

Defense http://johnrasnic.com/blog2010/2010/06/26/defense/ http://johnrasnic.com/blog2010/2010/06/26/defense/#comments Sat, 26 Jun 2010 22:05:43 +0000 Administrator http://johnrasnic.com/blog2010/?p=86 I hope we keep Bradley, but we clearly have a lot of work to do in the back. Still should be a great tournament. England – Germany tomorrow? Classic.
