Pick the most unlucky country in the world right now.
Did Myanmar came off the top of your mind? True enough the turmoil and bloodshed there is so unnecessary in this modern era. But my choice would have to be England. Just look at what happened to them in the past month alone:
- England’s soccer team lost 2-1 to Russia to effectively half-kill their qualification chances for Euro 200.
- England’s rugby team lost 6-15 to South Africa in the RWC Finals. Yay for RSA and thanks to them I now believe once more that lightning doesn’t strike the same place twice, right Wilkinson?
- Lewis Hamilton, yes he’s English, lost his final lap of the race, literally, in the F1 championships to give the driver’s championship to Ferrari’s Kimi Raikkonen. But at least he’s one for the future.
Okay, I’m being biased and thinking shallow here . But I just wanna point out that if I was an English, I’d be utterly disappointed that we have little to cheer about in the sporting arena. I feel you, England…
God save the
Queencountry
Btw, Singapore plays Pakistan in this Saturday’s World Cup qualifier game with a 4-0 advantage. Will GOAL 2010 finally be realised?
Perhaps it’s good not to count the chickens before they’re hatched.
