Sounds like the baseball World Series, the Rugby League World Cup or an AFL World Cup...God is an Englishman wrote: England have actually won 11, there were 10 world cups played before that one in uruguay but only England and scotland actually competed in it.

the afl world cup is a very good comparison to those early world cups. australia don't bother playing in the afl ones because they would win it so easily.

Re: English players are just too selfish
It's pretty obvious that they would win an afl world cup seeing as they're pretty much the only country that plays it. They decide not to as it would be too easy.Convict878 wrote:Wait... are... are you being NICE to Australian's?God is an Englishman wrote:the afl world cup is a very good comparison to those early world cups. australia don't bother playing in the afl ones because they would win it so easily.
The same as England in the first few football "world cups".
No one refers to PNG as the world champions, but the italians still claim those world cups

Of course we would know, we look at all the other nationalities and see the looks on their faces when they realise that they lost the lottery of life.
Remind me again, how italians are "winners". They used to have a pretty good empire, but even that got surpassed with the superior British one.

They couldn't even manage to take Greece on they're own in WW2
Re: English players are just too selfish
The lottery of life? Is that where you end up middle aged, divorced and stuck in a country you don't like?
Is this a football forum, or a historical forum?

When was the last time they failed to qualify?ozzie owl wrote:England didn't compete in those early WC's through arrogance, now they fail to qualify or fail when when they do qualify.
Is that why australia don't compete in afl world cups then, because they're arrogant?

How can there be a greece v italy topic anyway?
Football - well that's obvious
Food - obvious again
Empire - roman OBVIOUSLY.
How many times has italy been conquered?
How many times has greece been conquered?
Women - italian
Cars - not even a competition
Motorbikes - not even a competition
Seriously, what have the greeks given the world in the last 1,000 years?
At least the italians can say - ducati's.

At least we weren't Hitler's bitches and didn't need to run to him when we couldn't fight our own battles.
And Hawko, time to get some new hooks mate, I hear the lures are really good at this time of year.
