Group D with the Netherlands, Latvia, Czech Rep and the Germans.
As it currently stands the Czechs are through and don't give a toss.
German are on 2 points.
Holland are on 1 point.
Latvia are on 1 point.
For Germany to go through the HAVE to win. A draw is not good enough.
For Holland it is the same - the HAVE to win. A draw is not good enough - BUT they have to hope that German draw or lose. If they win then they are going to be on that bus with Italy.
So here's mine:
Holland 1 - Latvia 1
Germany 1 - Czech Rep 1
...and the Dutch go home....
Don't know which game to listen to. Might do first half with one and second half with the other. But it all depends on how they play.

Holland at full strengh. But with the Czechs helping their next door neighbours by fielding a weaker team...
Conspiracy ! What conspiracy ?

"GOAL !
Fine delivery from Seedorf, a neat head back from Cocu and Van Nistelrooy had the simple task to nod it over the line - making Ruud joint leading scorer with Wayne Rooney on four "
Germany are having trouble against the Czech B team.

Bye bye Germany, id love to say im sorry to see them go but im not.
Squad just isnt what it used to be.
Nice to see the netherlands doing what they do best. Can see them beating sweden and playing england in the semi's now that will be good.

"Sporting events on either sides of the pond !!!
Just curious to know how popular are the sports events like Stanely Cup Ice Hockey / NBA on the other side of the pond and similarly things like Soccer (Euro 2004 etc) / Cricket (e.g.Ashes series, Ind-Pak series, etc)in the U.S.A. Obviously there are certain events which attract worldwide attention like Superbowl / Grand Slam Tennis (Wimbledon, Rolland Garros....) / Olympics etc.
Which ones do you enjoy the most or miss the most ????
I for one follow the NBA, Grand slams, Olympics and cricket anywhere I am in this world."
It really was playing back to me in the voice of John Major when I was reading that. One of the most boring *****ing posts I've ever read on here. I don't really know why cos I think I've read worse
