cyprusjag Posted June 5, 2016 Report Share Posted June 5, 2016 OK,I admit it.I don't want any of the "home" nations or ROI to do wellCould maybe tolerate Wales but certainly none of the others.Can you imagine the saturation coverage if England get a sniff of the finals? As for the Irish, who wants Lafferty or McGeady celebrating? Petty and small minded I know but that's how I feel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blackpool Jags Posted June 8, 2016 Report Share Posted June 8, 2016 ACBE. Apart from everything else, the sight of Prime Minister Bojo, flanked by senior cabinet colleagues, Gove and Farage, waving their stupit lookin wee Union Jack flags and singing GSTQ, would give me the eternal boak.

Big Col Posted June 10, 2016 Report Share Posted June 10, 2016 Watching the France v Romania game and there are a few comments from the commentators that sound awfy familiar. "Pogba gets the ball but can't control it" "Pogba has a shot - but it goes way over the bar" And biggest laugh of the night so far came at half time from Bet365. Pogba to score the next goal 12/1. Only 12/1? Really? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lady-isobel-barnett Posted June 10, 2016 Report Share Posted June 10, 2016 Enjoyed that game. Normally these host nation first games are a bit stale. Winning goal was almost Lawless like in its execution. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
partickthedog Posted June 11, 2016 Report Share Posted June 11, 2016 Hal Robson Kanu goal for Wales carbon copy of Christie Elliot v Airdrie. Welsh goal celebration was a bit more restrained. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

angry gaz Posted June 11, 2016 Report Share Posted June 11, 2016 Thought Englands forwards let them down.Kane looked very tired and Sterling has less end product than Pat Nevin. Took a set peice for them to score. Usual pish from the analysts as well."Took a freak headr for them to score", if Kane had scored that it would be the greatest header ever scred. Better Teams will exploit the space the fullbacks leave at the back despite their excellent midfield Hart and their center backs are dodgy.too.Might be the team for the entertainment value,......along with their charming fans.

jaggy Posted June 12, 2016 Report Share Posted June 12, 2016 Russian keeper was terrible at the goal, standing 3 yards off his line behind the wall. Fair play to Dier for spotting it, but the keeper should have been in the right position to easily catch it. Having said that Joe Hart!!! most over-rated poseur of a keeper ever Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Prince of Kadriorg Posted June 12, 2016 Report Share Posted June 12, 2016 Bizarre tactic to have their main striker taking the corners instead of being in box to get on the end of them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fearchar Posted June 12, 2016 Report Share Posted June 12, 2016 The Russians weren't much of an opposition, but they won everything in the air, and it was hardly a surprise that their goal came from a header. Judging by that game, it looks as if high balls lumped into the box will be the England team's downfall. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lady-isobel-barnett Posted June 12, 2016 Report Share Posted June 12, 2016 it looks as if high balls lumped into the box will be the England team's downfall. ...and I heard something along the lines of England fans being attacked by the Russians dressed in black. Highballs and Black Russians could prove to be a cocktail for disaster. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BowenBoys Posted June 12, 2016 Report Share Posted June 12, 2016 Glad I missed that little spat. Can't let this go without responding, Pinhead. While it is true that I feel more affinity with the people in my chosen land of residence, my birth certificate shows that I was born in England, the son of two English parents. Fortunately, in thirty years in Scotland, expressions of views as extreme as yours have been very few. Nobody can change your views and nor should they try but in the twenty first century Scotland is a modern, liberal and diverse society. You are entitled to your views but perhaps you should keep them to yourself or you risk sounding like a, well, pinhead. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
