or don't you care.....


Correct :D

[Penfold42]

Correct :D

:lol:.......:D

Try telling that to a 9yr old with football on the brain.......we are in for the whole match......:D :D :D :D :D

[BeerFunk]

I'll watch it, I'm used to my team not being in it... but then we don't tout ourselves as favourites for every tournament so the disappointment isn't as bad :p

Ummm.... as to who I'll be 'supporting', well no-one in particular. I'll try to catch all the Spain, Portugal and Croatia matches though.

[Dragonfly]

Spain .......due to my other half being half spanish.

[Jiggles]

I will be trying to get away from it as much as i can!

[DJ Milky Way]

I would like Spain or Portugal to win. :)

I'm glad you dispelled the myth that women only watch football to see the pretty boys....

[djsteve10]

Not too bothered myself, Don't see what all the fuss is about sometimes.

[Dragonfly]

Cristiano Ronaldo yummmmmmmyyyyyy!!!!! :jawdrop: :jawdrop:

[Solitaire Events Ltd]

Correct :D

Snap. :D

[Penfold42]

Shuddap and get back to your ripping......:boxer2:

[Excalibur]

Shuddap and get back to your ripping......:boxer2:

I am. :( And insulting Rob. :D :D

[BeerFunk]

So far....


Croatia were disappointing, a shadow of the team that gubbed England at Wembley (:D). Germany impressed me, I reckon they could be the team to beat. Didn't see the Portugal game, so can't comment, and Holland were impressive tonight too - although I think Italy's normally unbreachable defence helped them along the way a great deal! And did somebody mention France? No? Ok.. :lol:

Just Spain tomorrow, then we'll have a real feel for who might be lifting the trophy :)

[Candybeatdiscos]

Cristiano Ronaldo yummmmmmmyyyyyy!!!!! :jawdrop: :jawdrop:

Its terrible, that i am the spitting image of him, only 5 or so years older looking of course :)

I think the teams to beat will be Spain & Holland, although i think knowing Scotland's luck Holland will win the championships so that when they start the world cup qualifyers in Oct we will then have the reigning European Champions to face - its never easy for us lol

[Solitaire Events Ltd]

It's looking 'slightly wet' at the Switzerland - Turkey game!

[Dragonfly]

indeed more wet than a wet thing at wet time :D :D :D

[Solitaire Events Ltd]

Lucky you're not there Dave.

Don't want streaks now do we? :sj:

Not on the 'boat race'...........:D :D :D

[Solitaire Events Ltd]

Phil Scolari has just been announced as the new Chelsea manager from July 1st apparantly.

You heard it here first....

[Dragonfly]

Second then...:D

[Solitaire Events Ltd]

Oooh, what a ****er for Switzerland!

[Solitaire Events Ltd]

Bye bye Switzerland. First team out!

[Candybeatdiscos]

Well done Portugal - first team through

[BeerFunk]

What's with the timing of the Chelsea announcement? Not very professional to announce while Scolari and Portugal are still competing and focussing on the tournament.

[Penfold42]

So a Spain and Germany final.........

Come on you Bull Fighters..............:D

[Solitaire Events Ltd]

So a Spain and Germany final.........

Come on you Bull Fighters..............:D

Absolutely!

[Penfold42]

Better team tonight.......IMO.....even from the kick off,,,,:)

[BeerFunk]

So a Spain and Germany final.........

Come on you Bull Fighters..............:D


Absolutely!:D

Why wouldn't you want Germany to win? :confused:

Is it because they have had the upper hand over England in just about every tournament they've met in? :p

Seriously, I'm with Spain in the final too - Germany have been nothing special, but they'll still probably grind out a Chelsea-style win :rolleyes:

[Penfold42]

:D

Why wouldn't you want Germany to win? :confused:
4 - 2............................:D


:Is it because they have had the upper hand over England in just about every tournament they've met in? :p :
I do not know what you mean...............:eek: :D

[Dragonfly]

anyone know the song the crowds seem to be singing every match ? think its played as the players come down the tunnel as well?

[soundtracker]

I'm surprised you're all going with Spain, if they win, it will leave England as the major European Nation with the longest period without a trophy!

[Penfold42]

Anyway.......well done to Spain.

Good tournament...i thought.

[BeerFunk]

Yeah it was, a few disappointments in terms of the big guns, but then a few surprises to even it up!

[Penfold42]

Thought the Spanish on the night were the best team....and what a goal.

Torres is a world class player...IMO.

In most peoples opinions I would have thought.

Germany were rubbish.
