Late World Cup rule change gives England comfortable victory
In a belated attempt to help the smaller nations, FIFA has announced that goals scored by the smaller nation will be weighted by population ratios of the competing nations. This turns England 1-1 draw with USA into a comfortable 6-1 win as England's goal is multiplied by six as USA has approximately six times the population of England. The other results so far are:
South Africa 2 Mexico 1
France 0 Uruguay 0
South Korea 2 Greece 0
Argentina 4 Nigeria 0
Fabio Capello has described the rule change as very fair, pointing out if Slovenia with a population of 2 million did score a goal, he had little doubt that England could raise their game and score 26 goals to win.

Its nonsense its nothing to do with populatiuons really (FootballCynic writes: Well, that's true, Willy. Slovenia is the smallest nation in the World Cup this time followed by Uruguay. The biggest nation is USA and Brazil is the second largest. However, it is thought that only about 50,000 people in the USA know that the Soccer World Cup is taking place)

I always thought that teams should be able to contract players from any nation for the world cup, then we would have someone like Brunei winning it which would be awesome! High Five!
The other alternative is to make up the teams of players plying their trade within a particular country so England stand a chance. Though I expect Spain would probably just win it. (FootballCynic writes: It's always been obvious to FootballCynic that if Capello could have a cheque book, he could put together a decent side together.)

FootballCynic asks that you take this website more seriously in future,)
