rather good but they will play the winners of group d so maybe england v germany ?

Well, England certainly have a plum draw if everything goes to plan - as far as I can work out, they should have the easiest conceivable passage to the semis possible if they win their group. Ivory Coast must be wondering whether they are destined to be drawn into groups of death! Wouldn't surprise me if France are knocked out of Group A, and Netherlands and Germany will have to careful to avoid hindcups.

is this a European term that has no meaning in UK English, I have googled and searched and can only find a fleeting reference to some Chinese ceramics

am I behind the times or completely out of touch again, or did you mean hiccup or perhaps the Hong kong colloqialism hiccough which actually means to cheat, must be Zebedee time!

Sorry, I was having an esophageal contraction of the diaphragm when typing. Anyway, Globo in Brazil have already knocked up a 'do-it-yourself' World Cup simulator - _http://globoesporte.globo.com/Esportes/0,,GEH1391-17852,00.html
