Bit of an old stat this but......

Brazil won the world cup in 1994. Before that, he had won this title for the last time in 1970. 1970 + 1994 = 3964

Argentina won the world cup for the last time in 1986. Before that only in 1978. 1978 + 1986 = 3964

Germany, though, won the world cup in 1990. Before that, Germany won in 1974. 1990 + 1974 = 3964

Not quite. The surname Gorringe (as in Chris, former Chief Exec of the All England Club) rhymes with orange.

Didn't QI reveal that there is also a word 'Borange'........

So we were the rightful Champion du Monde in France in '98 then?

Does that mean it will be a penalty shhoot out in the year 3964 ?

No, it means it'll be a first time winner. I suspect that the break up of Europe would have been at least 1000 years in operation by then, and that proudly lifting the World Cup that year will be the People's Republic of Thorpe Bay.

Talking of rabbits, if they eat cheese on toast, grilled crumpets with marmite, and muffins and jam they immediately die from Mixing me toasties.

If the population of China walked past you in single file, the line would never end because of the rate of reproduction.

Norway are the only international side to have a 100% undefeated record against Brazil (2 wins , 2 draws) .
