Euro 2016 begins!

I just got a work phone call and had iplayer on pause for 3 mins…….

did i miss something or should i just read the reports?

YES!

Sturridge quality attitude during his interview

Woy needs to learn the lesson here, Sterling needs to be at the back of the list

Best of luck to Wales to get the result they need against Russia

Never in doubt!

🙄

Ah, kinda wanted Wales to win (being the underdogs n all) but that Bale bloke can string a decent honourable set of answers when provoked by the reporter.. Doesn’t he play for Madrid or did I miss hear?

70% possession and the only clear cut chance was fluffed by by the £50M gold digger who supposedly moved clubs to get better…stick him on the bench…its what he’s now only good for

He doesn’t even deserve to be on the bench. He’s lazy, tactically clueless, and couldn’t hit a barn door with a shovel. A preening cockwomble who believes his agents hype. I don’t know how he’s the nerve to stick a no 7 on his back.

I’m sure that if Pep has been watching then he’ll already be ushering him towards the exit. Half a season on the bench, then out on loan, never to be seen again. City can afford to take the 30+ million hit they’ll have to take on him, just to get shut of him

England were poor, lucky Wales were worse. 🙂

Missed part of the middle of the game, bastarding boss came down! grrrr.

Canny argue with England from what I say though, Gallant performance from wales, but England just a better team and it eventually won out.

Both teams in a good position though, Russia are doable. as are Slovakia.

If fit, Sturridge will score: It’s a fact.

I’d just like to thank God for Studge’s interview.

I was like watching Arsenal at times, (when playing a so called inferior team), never easy trying to get through a packed defence of committed players, but we stuck at it and got what we deserved.

I thought all of Woy’s subs were spot on at the time, as the one player you want on the pitch in these situations is Sturridge…..just a pity it took him so long to get in where he was needed, rather than dropping deep and shooting (badly).

All IMHO of course. 8)

It’s Woy what won it 😉

2 perfect substitutions, now don’t play Stirling! The jury’s out on Kane.

Sterling needs to be at the sent back to England of the list

FIFY

He doesn’t even deserve to be on the bench. He’s lazy, tactically clueless, and couldn’t hit a barn door with a shovel. A preening cockwomble who believes his agents hype. I don’t know how he’s the nerve to stick a no 7 on his back.

I’m sure that if Pep has been watching then he’ll already be ushering him towards the exit. Half a season on the bench, then out on loan, never to be seen again. City can afford to take the 30+ million hit they’ll have to take on him, just to get shut of him

spot on binners
he’s a waste of space and talent…thins he’s better than he actually is…has he improved since going to city? no…hes gone backwards IMO
best £49M Liverpool ever made!! 😀

Sterling…. the latest in a long line of super impact speedsters who just lose the plot. Ruel Fox, Aaron Lennon, Theo and now Sterling.

. My impression of him is that he’s good at running not so good at football

How did everyone’s bets do?

My old man casually asked me to put £5 on Wales/England HT/FT, and just got £150.

So, did anyone win any money?

I did say 2-1, without enough conviction to put any money on it! 😥

Very strange to be so fired up for that as a fan yet be so genuinely conflicted about support. I thought I wanted Wales to win, being underdogs and seeing what it means to fans here, but I’ve been emotionally invested in England since I was a kid so I was pleased to see them play so much better.. so I guess that makes me an England fan after all 🙂

Sounds like you are English.

i really wish England had lost, all this does is reinforce the delusion that the England team are somehow contenders.
we don’t really have any world class players and what players we do have lack the ability to either follow basic instructions or show genuine talent for reading a game.
games seem to take the same form of stuttering around to little effect then running around in a panic for the last half hour. this only gets you so far in a tournament.
this isn’t enough against the top teams.

also losing at this stage would mean less work for emergency services as losing to italy, spain or france means the local intelligentsia like to show their disappointment by attacking ‘restaurants of ethnicity’.

Sounds like you are English

Sounds like you are English.

I’m half English. I don’t feel that way about their Rugby team.

asked me to put £5 on Wales/England HT/FT, and just got £150.

Are you sure he’s your old man? 😀

that Bale bloke can string a decent honourable set of answers when provoked by the reporter.. Doesn’t he play for Madrid or did I miss hear

Perhaps football threads aren’t your natural home 😉

Two Madrid clubs, Real and Athletico both in last months Champions League Final, he plays for Real

Fair do’s Mol’s, btw you don’t need to pick allegiance to a team, the euros are better enjoyed with out any. May have the odd soft spot here and there but that as far as it goes, it never verges on support. Nationalism is bollocks: 😆

Are you sure he’s your old man?

😀

Nationalism is bollocks

Of course, you’re Scottish.. 😉

If you must label me, means hee haw to me though! 😉

fair play to ni btw, never thought in a million years they’d be 1 up. ukraine should leveled there though. dull game though.

Sterling…. the latest in a long line of super impact speedsters who just lose the plot. Ruel Fox, Aaron Lennon, Theo and now Sterling.

Franz Carr for the (row z) win ! Sterling’s running him pretty close though 😐

Ah, sorry, you said lose the plot, rather than the ball 😉

Northern Ireland! How about that! Shame Scotland did’nt join the party!

Unfortunately Raheem is fast becoming the new Tony Daley.
I hope in years to come he rediscovers his form as he played quite a big part in that Liverpool team that should’ve won the league a couple of seasons ago.
Also this is the issue with taking so many strikers. Roy clearly likes this formation as it means he can find a place for Rooney, but Sterling is the only wide player we’ve got in the squad. Would’ve been better off taking Theo or Andros and leaving Rashford behind just to give us some options out wide.

Sterling isn’t a wide player, which is part of the problem.

OP must be shite being a scotland fan missing out on this festival of footy every couple of yrs….. twenty yrs now since the jocks made anything more signifiant than Gazza dumping colin hendry on his arse in 96
Wish you were here 😀

wouldn’t know, never supported scotland in my puff. 😆

So another look at the Germans, after the first round of games, the pick for winning it, imo.

Youse a puff! Fair play for coming out and admitting it fella lol 😀

what’s it like being you, you know, an ignorant scumbag bigot? Must be a particularly shit existence?
