Fun fact. If Giroud had scored in the first half. I would have just won £200.

Well done Junior Bravisimo (AA?)

I feel that all the favourites to be too obvious, and we're due someone 'doing a Greece'*,and the Czech Republicate that team! I'm sure of it!

* that's winning the Euro's, rather than everyone stopping paying tax, going bankrupt, then periodically causing financial chaos over an entire continent 😉

🙂

Greece's victory at the Euros just reinforces how dire England have been. Just very poor that I attended our past remotely decent performance, which was losing in the semis in '96 😐

@dd £5 sent btw

Jammers - my cousin, who is an uber-statto, and would bet on 2 flies crawling up a window - had analysed all the pre-tournament form that year, and confidently predicted (before a ball had been kicked) that the final would be a repeat of the opening game (Greece v Portugal) and Greece would win it 😯

He had what he referred to as 'a serious punt' on that outcome. Like an idiot, I, and everyone else, went 'yeah, right....'

Hmmmmmmm - I should maybe give him a quick text and see who he fancies! 😉

Ha, you all thought the fiver was your only payment. Have you noticed how quiet Stoner's been since he moved to Poland? He's struggling for Internet access but has busied himself setting himself up a TE*FL school.

*Excel, not English.

I'm fine not long arrived. Thought I'd impress the locals with my medals but it seems that 3 medals don't cut it here, the donkey taxi has more medals than me.
Looking forward to multiple bookings and a red card or two in next game.

The beach is lovely tho.

*saunters past thread to gloat*

The boys dun good.
I put it down to my exceptional tactical ability to score runs. Or hoops. Or whatever it is we're playing....

No pressure, but if your countryman let me down, Darcy, then they'll be a plastic chair being launched with your name on it.

dirtyrider, did you read the updated rules? You need to physically move to your team's country. Possibly best to avoid men wearing black shirts and/or bumbags while there though. 🙂

I'll be brief as I'm in a spring with some hot elves, we're all laughing at Stoner and farting with gay abandon - all about to nosh on some raw puffin hearts, but looking forward to Iceland putting on a good show tonight.

Can't post a picture as I'm a compulsive liar.
