Page 1 of Arrgh,....ENGLAND was supposed to win the 1998 World Cup!!!!! & IRELAND will win the 3964 World Cup.

Hi.......

I just received this from a friend. What a interesting fact about the World Cup.

> Brazil last won the world cup in 1994.
> > Before that they won it in 1970.
> > Add 1970 and 1994, it equals 3964.
> >
> >
> > Argentina last won the world cup in 1986.
> > Before that they won it in 1978.
> > Add 1978 and 1986, it equals 3964.
> >
> >
> > Germany last won in 1990.
> > Before that they won in 1974.
> > Add 1990 and 1974, it equals 3964.

> > The 1962 world cup was won by Brazil.

Going by the above `logic` again,... England last won the World Cup in 1966. If England is to win it again, it should be 3964 - 1966 = 1998 World Cup. Unfortunately, England missed it. So,...we can forget England in this 2002 World Cup.

Before I go,... this below one is for the Irish fans with NO OFFENCE :

> > Irish fans have reason to rejoice :
> > Ireland has never won the world cup so you`ll probably

Yes indeed the mighty England were supposed to lift the 98 trophy however there is a far simpler way to prove this.
If you take Italy`s victory in 1982 as the starting point you can see that the competition after (1986) was won by the same victors as the one before (1978 and Argentina) repeating this again with the next competition (1990) you can also se it was won by the one before (1974 and Germany) again 1998 and 1970 won by Brazil so 1994 and 1966 were supposed to be won by England!!
Does this mean that one day we will have a big resurgence of Uruguayian football??

So the french discovered the ability to time travel and travelled to 1998, druged the england team and got david peckham sent off and then messed about with ronaldo so he was crap in the final.

There is one thing which I never understand.

WHY when England went out of 1998 World Cup, the fans seem to put the blame on the Argies for geting Beckham sent off??? But no one is dare to admit that England SUCKS in penalty shoot out???

Come on, enough is enough. Stop blaming the Argies. U just have to admit that England SUCKS in penalty shoot out.

Cheers,...................

"Stop blaming the Argies"

But isn`t that what they`re there for?

We can blame them for everything - its wonderful! Our decline as a world power, a skilled footballing team and a professional armed force.

Blame the Argies!

Then there`s that No37 bus on the moon, my hair falling out, Nobbie`s piles - Argies!

Stick it up your Junta! (remember that? :D)

Erm............... told U so.... don`t put so much hope on England.

Well,.... I have said so. Can someone predict who is going to win the 2006 World Cup????

YES, Whoever gets the easy route through, & has every decision go their way; perhaps ask a couple of linesmen nearer the next world cup.

Oh we also have to have a ref who notices Beckham `touch` an Argentinean who just did a disgraceful foul, then sends Beckham off, who seems to miss half the Brazilian & Turkish team having a mass brawl,(I presume the linesmen were birdwatching at the time) thus if equality were to come into the game, it would have been 5 a side left & Brazil with 5 men missing the world cup. Did anyone else notice the censorship; we were not shown the fight & neither the Spanish after their loss against Korea.

...I detect the foul stench of sour grapes.
