As per Haynationalist's request, I have created a thread about our World Cup Qualifying. All future posts about our WCQ will be in here, and of course separate threads will also be created for each opponent.

Here is the full schedule...

Haha, yupp. It is embarrasing that it is a World Cup Qual. group. But we cant focus on that. I dont want to give up believing either since I think that with a little luck we could squeeze out that second place. We just have to hope that the danes will have a bad qualifying period.

Yes. But the play off scenario is a bit different than the euro one. In this qualification the draw for who you play against in the playoffs will be based on how you did in during the qualifications instead of seeding according to overall ranking.

nothing makes me more anger when i hear people ask me "how come Armenia isn't in the world cup" as if you had to be an elite team to be there...bozi txa lobis especially mer@ kunem if we had to play hungo bungo teams like salvador, guatemala, honduras monduras we would've been at the grand stage EVERY damn time....its all about UEFA and the European Championship....i'd love to see bozi txa lobi teams in the Euros k brrneyn morputs kaneyn

Ape, I love your patriotism, I got into that argument once before with some guy from Nicaragua. I'm like man... the hardest team you can play is USA/Mexico. Usa would probably be a second/third seed in Europe at best. I think Denmark (2nd seed) would easily trash them.

lol axper@s Mexico and USA would at best be a 4th seed and I'm not even joking.....Euro teams in seeds 1 and 2 would demolish these two and even looking at 3 seeded team like Czechs, Ukraine, Ireland I'm sure they'll beat them.......i hate bozi txa lobis that can't stand their team blows and they have to bring Armenia into the picture its like mother****ers we have to play European superpowers on a regular basis and what is Mexico's record against Euro teams at WCs? lmaoo laughable

Ok boys do you have predictions?

I think that we will

Win against Malta (A)

Win against Bulgaria (A) - We just have to hope Berbatov won't be coming back!

Win/Draw/Lose against Italy (H) - This game could actually go either way.

Win/Draw against Czech (H) - Petr Cech will be hard to get past.

Win against Malta (H)

Lose against Denmark (A) - Those ****ers are hard at their homeground ''Parken''

Draw against Czech (A) - Cech Problem again.

Win/Draw against Denmark (H)

Win against Bulgaria (H) - Berbatov problem again

Win/Draw/Lose against Italy (A) - They will probably be group leaders with a good marginal at this stage so maybe their performance and won't be the same. Let's Hope!

What do you think guys?, is this reasonable?

So guys is it clear where we will host Italy? I don't think it will be Hanrapetakan because I'm sure more than 15,000 people would want to watch the game. There's Hrazdan and it does seat 60,000 people, so are there any plans to renovate the stadium. We do play Italy on October 12, which means we have less than a year to do so.

yeahhh i wanna be there to.... with our community there and the fans around the globe, i see every game filled with 25.000 armenians. what a time it would be. This is it, this is the world cup that we gonna attend. I see us winning every game in the qualification except italy, mayb a draw in armenia but also if we end second we will go to the world cup.

I see us drawing with the Italians at home while losing in Italia.

Beat the Danes at home and drawing with them in Denmark, same result against the Czech's.

6 points against both Malta and Bulgaria as well are my expectations giving us a total of 21 points.

I don't understand why everyone is under the impression that we can't pull off a win against the Italians or the Danes? Sure, Italy has won 4 World Cups and is a former rank 1 side in the world, but that was then and this is now. They don't have anything more than we do. Same with Denmark, maybe we'll have a tough time in Copenhagen but I'm positive that we'll beat them 2-0 or 2-1 in Yerevan.
