England as top seeds England have been placed in the top seeding group for the 2006 WC qualifiers so we will avoid France, Portugal, Sweden, Czech Republic, Spain, Italy and most importantly Turkey http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/internationals/3257716.stm
Re: England as top seeds Good news methinks, but what about Holland and the ever improving eastern european nations?
Re: Re: England as top seeds Its based on the record in the last three major competitions and the qualifying. So Holland not quallifying for WC 2002 screwed them up and was the reason why Germany were in the top seeds for the WC 2002 and England weren't, even though we won the qualifying group and the Germans went through the play offs
Re: Re: Re: England as top seeds Aye, i know how its done but by missing the top seeds we now have to face potential banana skins but who gives a fuck, spence said it right!!!!! Let them worry bout us!!!
