This is not a joke. England are all but qualified and can book their trip to South Africa with a
win over Croatia Wednesday. Northern Ireland can win their group with victories in their last two
games and a little help. Their neighbors to the south, the Republic of Ireland, have an outside
shot of winning their group but should at least finish second.
Excellently, the conclusion to the European World Cup 2010 Qualifiers are a mathematical diversion
of some consequence.
And all because of one little FIFA rule - that only eight of the nine second placed nations will

Why am I writing a post about Octoberfest in early September? Because I love Octoberfest, but I
hate it's name. Its moniker inherently limits the celebration to only 31 days. I think it

month.
Easy win for the Germans over weak opposition who only had ten men for half the match.
1-0 Ballack
It seems strange that a team that has gained 22 points from a possible 24 is not yet guaranteed
World Cup qualification. Whilst it is true that England, Netherlands and Spain have perfect
qualification records, Germany might feel like they have also done enough already. In fact they
face a tense climax to their qualification campaign.

Ray Hudson era. Granted United is 3 points out from 1st in the East, United has also played the
most matches of every team except for Houston.
