dose anyone now when the draw will be to get the first fixtures of the world championship...the new fifaworldcup.com is to be launched in june so may get info then but has it been mentioned yet?
If you mean the SPG tournament for Oceania, it certainly can't be before 25 May because entries don't officially close until that point. J
Apparently the OFC are hoping to hold the draw on 28 May in Zurich. Two groups (1 x 6, 1 x 5). Teams will be seeded according to FIFA ranks. POT 1 - Fiji, Solomon Is. POT 2 - Vanuatu, Tahiti POT 3 - New Caledonia, PNG POT 4 - Samoa, Tonga POT 5 - Cook Is, American Samoa POT 6 - Tuvalu (Could change with May FIFA ranks) Dates for Stage I (South Pacific Games) 24 August - 7 September Stage II (Oceania Nations Cup) New Zealand and top three sides from above. Matchdays - 13 October 2007, 17 October 2007, 17 November 2007, 21 November 2007, 12 October 2008*, 16 October 2008* Stage III (Playoff against 5th-placed AFC side) November 2009. * - dates uncertain. Even the OFC appears to believe that the OFC place will be a direct playoff against Asia (not an OFC side in the 2nd AFC group Stage). J
