It is being dubbed a meaningless game.

However the reality is that Costa Rica will want at least a point to guarantee top spot. This would lead to a likely tie against Ivory Coast instead of Colombia, and a potential best ever finish at the World Cup for the Ticos.

What is your predicted score?

I think England will lose.

1 -1.

3-1 Eng

Would be just like us to get a result when the pressure's off and its actually pointless.

I think Costa Rica should put out a strong team in a bid to secure top spot and could envisage them being two nil up around the hour mark. At that point they might pull off key players and we might pull one back.

At the end of the day we're not starting with a "team" and Costa Rica are on a high. I reckon they 'll do us by a single goal but I kinda want them to humiliate us by two or three clear goals because that's what the consequence of us putting out the second string eleven deserves.

As much as it pains me I'd like to see England get hammered, then perhaps we can finally realise we're not very good, and go back to the drawing board. It's a shame we have some good players, but don't seem to be able to use them, unlike Holland who are more or less in the same boast as us player wise, but just seem to do far better.

And before the tournament it was CR who were gonna be the whipping boys of our group, turns out it was us.

England to play well and get a comprehensive 3-0 win, just when it's too late to make any difference.

Feels odd not getting excited about an England World Cup match



Ridiculous, the likes of Robben, Van Persie and Sneijder are streets ahead of anything we have.

Hopefully Costa Rica 6-0 England.

Just to teach these useless sacks of crap a real big lesson. And to encourage a complete overhaul of the squad.

Well that proves my point, we keep getting told how great out players our!!
