footie: Euro 2016

[Anonymous]

I made a mistake in the virtual lounge or Wanty's ... ... ... by saying England are into the knock-out part of the game ... well ... they arn't are they yet ... *eats humble pie* ... are they? ... ... ... after the pub this afternoon / early evening ... I now know England play on Monday, is it Turkey? ... & they can win or draw & they will be through to the next stage

this kinda thing from England gives me an attack of the heebie-jeebies

I shall watch the match on Monday with 'heart in mouth'

From the last major footie competition ie World Cup 2014 in was it Brazil? ... ... ... where we did not get out of the group stage (memory being excercised here) ... sumut to do with England's best players in the Premiership being foreigners & playing for their own countries 

This time around do we have some home-grown players to represent England? ... Vardi?

Sven was loyal to Beckham ... ... ... is Hodgson loyal to Rooney in the same way? ... ... ...

Well we are all through and maybe finishing 2nd in the group was a bonus. Iceland....didn't even know they had a football team

Safe to say that neither side are gonna win the tournament tho - it really is a dreadful game!

True.......and especially true of the opening minutes.

It's end to end stuff with loads of goal chances being created but little goal scoring ability..........now it's penalties !!
