At least England, with a relatively poor squad in terms of quality, are playing as a team and always look to go forward. Not for them a Pique who could only see left. right and behind! (Sorry Keith!!!). Sweden will prove too strong I think.

I used to have a Toronto Blue Jays hat and scarf. A present form an uncle who lived in Edmonton butt supported the Blue Jays. This would have been in the mid or late 70s.

We were all happy when the Germans were knocked out! (With apologies to the lovely ip German contingent!)

A friend of mine thinks parity has arrives, and I have to say the differences between the top nations seem to be very small these days.
