england will win the group then get knocked out in the quater finals. it's simple really, england aren't good enough to win it. infact they are miles off.

HA! We haven't had a decent manager in years, so you cant really judge.

The players are awesome, and with Fabio Capello making the players work more efficently(and better) we got a very good chance.

Cheers,

Mark

Edit: Also he's got the best stats of all previous managers.

when we face the likes of spain, brazil (they always hit form in the world cup), germany. then we'll come unstuck, capello is a good manager but i can see personal issues with players letting him down, instead of just looking at their form. "i don't like your mother jermaine, so emile starts above you". first off we don't have a good solid goalkeeper, so we can't count on that. and as for strikers then name one english forward who you would put up against torres or villa. there are non that even come close. i just hope they at least try their best that's all i ask.

i admit, i was foolish enough in 2006 and 2002 to get swept up in this media idea of the fact that they may as well send us the cup in the post before it even starts. but i can see better this time. twats who write for the likes of the mail and the sun, and yes even sky sports news keep falling into the same trap. sven was a good manager for us but he took us as far as he could really, the team simply isn't good enough.

on the grid.

I'm really looking forward to the world cup, its such a good atmosphere in the pubs though I wish I could be there in South Africa. Great host country to hold it in.

Incidentally have you noiced the backdrop the BBC uses on the news when they talk about the world cup? Smashing job. Shame its not the official logo, it really evokes the spirit.

The thing is, every world cup we hear that we have a great team and that we will win it.

In Germany 2006 there was loads of, we have the best team since 1966 and its exactly 40 years so we must win it...same kinda thing in 2002 with Sven.

Saying this..I do think we have a good chance :D

I don't think that England will win the cup, but hopefully will beat their group before dropping out. When that happens I'll choose another team to support in the pub, so fickle!

same here, i would love us to win it but the players aren't good enough. so when we drop out i'll back spain like i did in euro 2008.

the guy is pure class. experience, pace (allthough not as much as munich in 2001), finishing, teamwork. he has to keep this up of course, but if he does and fabio dosen't take him. he's a tit.

i managed to cap this from the live feed of the game (they cut it out the highlights later). suicide followed after owen scored the 3rd.

    • Is big weekend the only place to get long boi merch? It's sold out! I'd love to have got my hands on some. 
    • Considering the price of some festival event for a small portions can be pricey but it isn’t too bad that could get it with chips and other roast dinner bits. I think when you are billed as a touring high profile DJ there’s always a risk of playing out familiar tracks from other artists in the mix. Especially on a line-up with Chase and Status and Rudimental who will be playing pretty much all tracks written, produced and released as their DJing names.   
    • Matt & Mollie I believe (and on the radio occassional studio bits from Jack Saunders, Sam & Danni and Maia Beth).
    • Obvs - Scott 2-4 and Trevor Nelson are also in 82A
    • Who presented Party Anthems on stage?
    • Lots of adverts for Matt and Mollie around the place, alongside the rest of the weekday lineup, but no mention of Dean and/or Vicky. Although I notice those two are doing the photobooth today, as is Danny Beard…
    • Yesterday was excellent pretty much all day. You can tell a lot of work has gone into the festival and the set up was really good. The ground is fine for anyone worried, I wore old trainers and they’re still fine today.    Merchandise is available for some high prices. If you’re going for Longboi merch get it early as they sold out within the first couple of hours.    The photo booth is also good and we met Vick, Katie and Jamie for a few seconds and got a photo. If you’re doing this get there 15-20 minutes before the advertised time as they’re only 30 minute slots. It’s right next to the main stage so you can see everything going on there from the queue anyway. Most of the acts we saw were excellent. Becky Hill and Ella Henderson were brilliant live. Rudimental and Chase and Status were absolutely incredible. Nathan Dawe wasn’t great, played 3 of his own songs then dodgy remixes of Marvin Gaye, Dolly Parton etc. Went to Dimension halfway through which was must better. Saw 15-20 minutes of Eric Prydz which wasn’t really my thing but his staging was excellent.  The DJ sets in between everything were pretty good, especially Matt and Mollie and Charlie Hedges. Sam and Danni were a welcome change as they played indie anthems for a while although I think they may have just been the pre recorded anthems they usually play on weekends (still better than Nathan Dawe). Food was good, but pricey - £15 for my main meal of roast pork, stuffing, chips and Yorkshire pudding. I was surprised they were selling multipacks of Madri and bottles of wine, especially the latter as people were walking around swigging from glass bottles in the middle of the crowd then dumping them on the floor… the rubbish was a mess at the end of the night. Probably one of the best live music events I’ve ever been to, a real credit to the station. 
    • While there were some technical issues (tracks temporarily cutting out, mics not working at first for radio listeners, 'studio team' sometimes jumping in at quite random intervals) Party Anthems on stage seemed to work well and I sort of wonder why they haven't done it before. I guess it depends on when gates open but if gates open around 1/2pm then no excuse not to do it- it's a DJ set which they have loads of across the weekend and acts as a warm-up so the crowd are hot for the first main act.
    • They mentioned on air that it's before Joel Corry's set.
    • When is the set for Greg and Tom? I’m having trouble getting on to Insta and Google is not helping.
    • Jess Iszatt is in for Jack on Monday 27th May.
    • The two larger studios either side of the Live Lounge are 82A (aka 82Mills) and 82D.  The 4 smaller ones nearby are 82B, C, E & F.  The brand new ones are nearby on the 8th floor and are 82K, L, M & N.  All of the London-based R2 and 6M shows are coming from the 8th floor, some in the new studios and some in the original ones.  Obviously there are a lot of shows that come from elsewhere in the country such as Birmingham, Salford and Cardiff, but any in London come from the 8th floor.   In terms of R1 at the moment:   82A - Greg James, Danny Howard, Jeremiah Asiamah 82B - Early Breakfast Mon-Fri, Dan P Carter, Sarah Story, Charlie Tee 82D - RMC, Going Home, Future Artists, Future Pop, Rave Up, 13.00-16.00 Fri-Sun 82E - Official Chart, Chillest Show 82F - Dance Anthems, Kenny Allstar, Indie Show 82N - New Music Show Salford - Dean & Vicky, Danny Beard, Nat O'Leary, Life Hacks Cardiff - Sam & Danni
    • Vick, Katie, Jamie, Charlie and Melvin will be on at 11am. Then Matt, Mollie, Charlie and Jamie at 1pm.
