if somehow Russia make it through and end up playing England it will be an absolute hoot.

If Russia beat England we would be hearing about how they're all cheats from the cheap seats forever though.

Be riots at my work, loads of Russians. Funny how they all have 2 teams though as they desperate for England to meet them in the semi.

England v Russia in a semi final of a world cup in Russia? Can't see there been any issues there:laugh:

Russia are not very good but probably doping like mad so they have a chance, very unimpressed with Croatia the other night.

Should have been on Friday so there could be 2 interesting games on Saturday and 1 less tomorow. Will have to "work from home" for one of them tomorrow.

Given the state sponsored doping that's plagued their Olympic athletes I don't think it's much of a stretch to suggest that some illicit knowledge has spread to football.

Their distance run stats are suspicious as ****.

Having said that, as I have Russia in the sweepstake I am quite alright with rampant doping, intimidation of player's families and referees disappearing.

Not that remarkable tbh. Less than than what most AFL midfielders cover in a game.

I swear I've seen the Russian manager in The Godfather or some such mafia movie.
