14L G40 Wittman (+10) vs. Bold

[boldfresh]

@wittmann:

Well, if you have time to do Japan, please do. I will see what I can do.
I asked, because I believe it is an uphill task. Impossible maybe.
Good day.

No not impossible just improbable.  J coming up.

I was too afraid of Japan and did not really get in properly on the Europe side. I have not done much except delay the inevitable. It was frustrating to see Germany collect so much income.
Well played Sir. I did say before that I did not think I deserved to upset your good work.
That was the only time I have lost Moscow, incidentally. (Have lost London.)

Will throw everything at you in the morning! Enjoy the rest of your day.

Morning.
Did you want to scramble one Ft to Italian waters to stop my two Cruisers’ bombardment?

Even if I retake Rome, I cannot hold it. Hope I am not wasting your time.

no scramble - no worries you are not wasting my time.  you have every right to continue.

Congratulations on a well earned Axis victory. I wish you luck in all your other games. Was a pleasurable experience; I thank you again for the game.

Thank you Wittman - it was truly a pleasure playing you - you are a top notch gentleman.

Cheers, and good luck rest of the league year.  Who do you now think will win the world cup?

[Witt]

Italy. Oh no, we are out!
Holland, I hope. I fear it will be Germany though.

Thanks for the compliment.

[boldfresh]

I’m thinking Germany vs. Argentina in the final.  Argentina champion.

[boldfresh]

i think germany brazil is 50/50 now that Neymar is out.  Brazil may rally and make it Brazil Argentina for an all south american final.

[Witt]

I am going with my continent: Holland Germany.
Will watch Tuesday’s game and miss Weds, because I am at work. Should catch the end.
How long have you watched football? I remember the 78 World Cup(was
In Italy for the Summer Hols) and supported Man U, as my grandad was born in Rochdale, Lancashire, of Irish Catholic stock and that was the team to support.
On my Italian side, we have only ever been Fiorentina supporters. They are the only Florentine team and my dad’s family goes back generations in Florence.
