This started a few years ago. We had a couple posters that would literally start a thread about every thought they had. They'd also start a thread about something specific like say Walcotts contract even though we had a specific thread already on here about that, all because their opinion was just soooooo important they had to ensure it stood out and was read by everyone. :lol: We called them vanity threads. So we take the piss out of each other in a friendly way by calling even slightly related threads "vanity threads". :wink:

Luis Suarez injures knee ahead of World Cup - Uruguay media

http://www.bbc.com/sport/0/football/27514880

Karma for playing handball against Ghana?

May improve England's chance of getting out of the group?

I voted Germany :box:

Such is my indifference to international football these days I dont really know much about any of the teams bar their star players.

My initial thoughts are that Argentina should win in, with their attacking options (such that Tevez cant even get in the squad i dont think) but I have no idea who is in their defence, but I'd wager they have a couple of no nonsense hard bastards at the back.

Other than that I hope that the Arsenal players do well and dont get injured.

A European team won't win so it's down to the Argies, You Are Gay or Brazil. It's the hosts for me as it's massive advantage playing at home and lady boy Neymar will be top scorer 8)

Germany or Spain should win it, but given the history, it has to be brazil.

Suarez is a warrior. You can bet he'll be fit as a fiddle at the start of the World Cup.

I don't know. But NOT brazil in my opinion, they're not actually that good anymore, people are assuming they'll win it because its on their own turf but I don't think they've got as much quality as spain, Germany or argentina.
