Looking forward to the match Belgium v France. I don't know if there are a better pair of forwards left in the tournament than Lukaku and De Bruyne. Reply #661. Jul 09 18, 12:45 PM |

Huddersfield Town, Mix. I've paid £180, £200 and now £220 over the past three seasons and many fans were eligible for £100 tickets last season. Reply #662. Jul 09 18, 12:50 PM |

nasty, That's o.k but for people who want to bring their kids along it can start to become prohibitive. terraorca. A few years ago I was playing fantasy football with work colleagues and I had chosen Lukaku and De Bruyne for my team. Excellent players. De Bruyne especially was a very reliable performer at the time. You could not choose more than one player from any Premier League Team, but Lukaku and De Bruyne played for different Premier League Teams, so I could choose them both. Reply #663.

For 17/18 season under 18s season ticket £80 under 8s £30. I really don't think any of the above are especially prohibitive at all. Less than £2 a game for under 8s, less than a fiver a game for under 18s. I think our fans agree too, since the introduction of this sort of pricing we have a full stadium every week (includes the season before promotion) instead of a half full stadium. Reply #664.

But let's put this back on track! France vs Belgium tomorrow! Who wins! I'm not sure, think I'm going to sit on the fence for the one. Maybe it will go to penalties! I keep expecting Belgium to fall apart but they have been excellent. Definitely the most impressive side in the knockout rounds. Great comeback win against Japan and great win against Brazil.

I'll take Belgium, mainly because I've picked them since the beginning, and I'm too stubborn to change now. But I do think it will be decided late. Reply #666. Jul 09 18, 8:21 PM |

Hello friends.... Oops, I vanished indeed. Life got busy and well, I wasn't able to write or check on this forum. I will try to post everything before tomorrow's exciting match. Thank you all for keeping the discussion going! I look forward to exchanging more opinions. My upcoming posts will probably be extremely long... oh well. Feel free to read or not read! Can't believe this is coming to an end. :( Chat soon! Reply #667. Jul 10 18, 12:06 AM |

France v Belgium = Youth v Experience. I'm inclined to think Belgium will win with so many good players but expectations have been confounded in this World Cup and France with their youth and speed may make the breakthrough in some key moments that decide the outcome. It should be an exciting game anyway. At this stage no one 'deserves' to go out so it will be very emotional for the fans. Reply #669. Jul 10 18, 1:28 AM |

Good game, Hazard dominates the game in the first 20 minutes after this Pogba and Griezman take a more dominant role. Both teams play in a great game, the goalkeepers has a key role to mantain the 0-0...Good Llorys and Courtoua. Reply #672. Jul 10 18, 12:51 PM |

Corner and Umtiti score to qualify France. 1-0 Reply #674. Jul 10 18, 1:58 PM |

France managed to reduce the danger of Belgium and contain them when they got near goal. Belgium didn't have enough luck or inspiration which you need to get past goalkeepers of the quality of Lloris. Courtois also had a great night as goalkeeper but France had that little bit of extra magic on the night. Reply #675. Jul 10 18, 2:16 PM |

Great game, very strategic defense by France. A set piece by France is the decider. Reply #676. Jul 10 18, 6:32 PM |

Very much "even stephens"..........little between the teams, but France got the edge............so France v Croatia or England in final which must make them favourites. Reply #677. Jul 11 18, 12:41 AM |

Football at its best is a team working together, giving it their all, playing exciting and inventive football, showing their skills, but also, when you've done all that and lost to a better team, losing with grace and dignity. The Belgian team certainly lost with dignity last night - a very professional reaction, I thought. Reply #679. Jul 11 18, 1:29 AM |
