"I'll eat My Hat if..."

- Once, just once, the referees aren't told by FIFA to book everything that moves
- Owen Hargraves doesn't get booed. Poor fella, just 'cos he plays in Germany...
- Mellberg and Ljunberg kiss and make up.
- Roy Keane does a dramatic turn around and calls off retirement to play for Latvia.
