    What about Lineker telling Diego he was "good with his hands"? Pom's just won't let it go.

    Hey I will pay Syria had a little bit of threat but that was through one bloke their strikers speed and skill the rest of them were nothing to worry about but your taking the piss about Honduras

    They were only in the game as we were inept in front of goal until the Gypo scored

    They were never really troubling us in defence either.

    Considering how bad our defensive efforts have been in recent times that takes some level of incompetence to not be troubling the Gypo in goals

    Even if we have a great game and they off the pace they have enough class to pull something out to deprive us a win

    The French on the other hand are likely to implode like the Dutch have before in WCs

    Look at their frontline options

    Grizemann Giroud Martial Mbappe Lacazette Payet Dembele Gamerio

    Sure as shit they have players to rip us a new one.

    But..... They can't take all of them. There is going to be plenty of pissed off players with bent egos when their mates don't get selected or they riding the bench or playing out of position to accommodate someone else

    Add in the reality they have a pretty diverse ethnic make up which could also implode on racial or cultural lines at any stage

    This is why they a great draw for us

    They may not be on their game when we play them and if they are I doubt they will unite together like Spain Germany Brazil etc would do
    This the same France that beat Germany on the way to the Euro finals last year?

    On paper France have the best squad at the tournament.

    and to be fair as someone who has tossed a good amount of coin away on the ****ing French in major tournaments, they have a bad reputation for failing to deliver on their potential.

    but yeah of course they will aim up against us.

    Ticket question:
    If I do follow Australia 4 match pack, and we do not make it out of the group, what Round of 16 game do I get? Is it random, do I choose?

    It the winner of group who you get

    You don't pick it

    So theoretically it should be France assuming they top th group

    Awesome, thanks.
    Not sure whether to do cat 2 or 3 Australia tickets (purely from the logic of 5000 applying for cat 3, 2000 applying for cat 2 esque thinking).
    How successful are people? A group of 8 I know are each trying for 4 tickets.
    32 x 3 tickets is a lot to try an offload right?

    Most Aussies will get their tickets in the next application.
    Happened last time in Brazil

    You probably find you go close to getting 75% of them applications I reckon

    Thing called the internet to get rid of them

    Green and Gold army and Fanatics run websites Facebook etc which will have people looking for tickets

    Then you can even try looking at palming them off on other random football forums from around the world or BigSoccer etc

    Use the tickets for trade for other games you interested in

    It the World Cup don't forget even if you can't get or organise a trade before you leave Australia when you get to Europe there is plenty of football fans from all over the world with pockets full of cash on holidays .

    Offer them tickets and it won't be long to find a buyer just don't do it around the ground

    interesting.
    They make you:
    a) nominate if you are an Australian Supporter.
    b) enter in Passport details of everyone you apply for tickets for.

    Is this normal? or some kind of trick that means one passport number = one ticket (would this mean if 4 applications went in, only 1 would be successful)

    They done a lot of that shit in Brazil

    I went to a game with a lady's name on my ticket and got stopped by security for check

    Makes no difference

    They make up rules they don't / can't ever enforce

    Just don't be selling tickets above market rate or selling them around the ground on Match day etc and you getting them for your own personal use then no great dramas. Same as the cops and drugs. They don't give a **** if you have a small amount for personal use etc but don't be caught selling the things etc

    Stop worrying about it. I did the same and it never eventuates
