OutByEaster? Posted June 2, 2009 Moderator Share Posted June 2, 2009 A very nice gentleman has e-mailed us asking us to enter a competition to pick an all-time world cup XI. This is to help publicise England's bid for the World Cup in 2018 and they would like as many of us as is possible to register our support here.. By adding this link to the competition they are hoping we'll help towards achieving their target of two million registered fans supporting the bid to bring the World Cup to Villa Park and some other places in this country. Now, here's the interesting bit, the forum with the closest line up to an XI selected by John Barnes (one of the bid's Vice Presidents) will win the chance to send a forum correspondent to the post-match press conference for the England versus Andorra match on June 10th, as well as a ticket for the match itself. They would like a team submitted by the 5th June, which means we've only got the rest of this week, so please register your support for the England's World Cup bid and vote here for your all-time best World Cup Central Defender. Thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LancsVillan Posted June 3, 2009 Moderator Share Posted June 3, 2009 Hmm God is the obvious choice but as it is WC games I'll go with Baresi. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sled Posted June 3, 2009 Share Posted June 3, 2009 Hmm God is the obvious choice but as it is WC games I'll go with Baresi.Which is precisely why I went for Moore, who had virtually perfect World Cups in 66 and 70 but in bread-and-butter league matches often looked extremely sluggish and clumsy, and made lots of mistakes. Unlike God. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paddy Posted June 3, 2009 Share Posted June 3, 2009 Hmm God is the obvious choice but as it is WC games I'll go with Baresi. That was my thinking too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
