| Our World Cup coverage on 19:32 - Jul 12 by Boundy | I’m one of them who really don’t mind/ care if England win but then again I have reasons not to ,maybe I’m more balanced than some on here although I know that will be questioned 🤣 |
I hope England win, but I won't lose any sleep if they don't. Not a true fan I think. |  | |  |

There will be a clash of values due to the history between the two countries. Especially those who are not English. |  |

| Our World Cup coverage on 21:39 - Jul 12 with 1547 views | trampie | What might be to England's advantage is they have a German manager who is basically saying they are rubbish and need to improve and that they have been very lucky, as opposed to say an English manager blowing smoke up their arses and saying they are great when they have not been, it might be to England's advantage to have a manager that tells them how it is . |  |

They might well do. Frankly,I’m not bothered either way We will see a lot of hype if England reach the final Media will go into overdrive Pub hours extended Fans beating each other and police Some Welsh will chant France/ Spain,like they did Argentina last time they beat England I’m more interested in seeing another dawn |  |

There are no blacks in the Argentina team because there are few blacks in Argentina. If you see a black face in Buenos Aires, an American accent comes out of it. They are 0.7% of the population. Jews are even less, 0.4%. |  | |  |

Hence my point There’s a reason why blacks do not go there Same with many South American countries apart from Brazil Same scenario with Croatia, Serbia, Montenegro,Albania, Bulgaria ,Romania ,Czecholand or whatever they’re calling it now and of Poland ,not to mention mother Russia to where few migrants go,even though it’s easier to get to Hmm |  |

| Our World Cup coverage on 14:48 - Jul 13 with 1177 views | trampie | Seen the podcast thing covering the semi's and the two boys (both top notch tipsters) are going for both semi finals to be draws, 1-1 draws. Spain v France draw h-t and draw full time, but no higher than 1-1, under 2.5 goals a strong play. England v Argentina to be 1-1 but possibly even 2-2 or 2-1 either way , both teams to score being a strong play in that one. Although they are going for draws if they had to say one way or the other they would give a slight edge to France and England. Although both games to be 1-1 Spain v France no higher than 1-1 in goals whereas the England v Argentina could be higher than 1-1 in goals, 1-1 in both games is basically their predictions. For me (I don't disagree at all with them) I will go France in extra time (but the value on Spain) and Argentina in extra time (with the value on Argentina) so i will also go with both games to be draws after 90 mins. |  |

Getting into Argentina as a tourist easy, a work visa is not. You will need a job offer from a reputable company known to the tax authorities and your employer will have to attend in person at the Ministry for parts of the process. Even then it's only valid for 3 years and has to be re-newed. They don't encourage immigration. You are right, blacks don't go there, neither does anyone else pretty much. Russia has the highest percentage Muslim population in Europe, and it's rising. |  | |  |
