Euro 2016

[Lee]

Well done you lovely NornIron lot. Shame Scotland couldn't join the party as well.

Things going the way they are there's a potential v England for the quarters.

 

[Барбоса]

Hope the Republic can haul themselves through too.

What I would really like to see though is Portugal going out with Iceland going through.

Northern Ireland might talk about "Our Wee Country" but Iceland are a fifth the size of us...

 

[Kodo Sawaki]

Croatia has almost open way to semifinal now. Whereas Spain has Italy, then possibly Germany and possibly in semis France. Of yeah, and England is there too. Sick lower half of a draw while top half looks more like qualifying groups.

 

[OYDK]

Those Croat bastards just basically snuffed out Italy's chances at the semi's. Unbelievable.

Than again, it's soccer so I'll probably be upset for about 5 minutes before I get over it.

EDIT: Quarters. See I can't even get the stages right.

 

[Pay Per Ghost]

The Croats are a decent outit, I see them going 3rd in the tourney.

 

[Blade]

Hope the Republic can haul themselves through too.

Not gonna happen, I'm afraid...

 

[Navi]

The fans at the Euro Cup are just as bad as they always are. The English fans have been called by the media "a bunch of hooligans". Jesus Christ.

Never fucking fails. Not one of these fools can go to the Euro or World Cup's and enjoy themselves, always have to be front page news. And I'm talking about all the countries. Croatia and Russian fans have been as bad as the English fans this year.

I've heard that both Russia and England have been threatened with disqualification if their fans don't start behaving themselves. Don't know if that's true or not. If it is, disgraceful.

 

[FunKay the Inevitable]

Croatia have the personnel but its a volatile situation there; regardless of how well they've played, the coach is immensely disliked and seen a puppet for their apparently massively corrupt FA which may or may not be filled with mad right wing nutters (which may include Davor Sucker). If they repeat what they did versus the Czech's - lead for most of the game and let in the only effort on goal the opponent's had - we'll get another episode where the fans begin in-fighting and the team loses focus and confidence.

Credit where it's due, they performed admirably to come out undefeated, but I'm not buying into the hype.

 

[One Punch Doug Crashin]

Croatia are a good team... It's just these fans this year piss me off. The fuck are you doing shooting flares and shit on the pitch..

 

[Blade]

Hungary and Iceland scored at pretty much the exact same time. This tournament is a mess.

 

[Blade]

Seriously, Hungary vs. Portugal is awesome.

 

[Pay Per Ghost]

The fuck is happening in Hungary Portugal!

 

[Blade]

And a last minute goal for Iceland. This entire group has been ridiculously entertaining.

 

[Blade]

Fuck yes.

 

[Барбоса]

Get in.

Hoolahan was quick to make amends

 

[Blade]

Wales, the North, and the Republic all through.

Also, Iceland. Fuck yeah, Iceland.

 

[Lee]

Pretty happy with those results.

Wales v Norn Ireland should be fucking great.

ROI getting their old rivals in France.

 

[Tastycles]

Looking at the two halves of the draw makes Roy's decision to rest everyone look pretty fucking daft now. Wales could realistically get to the final by beating Northern Ireland, Belgium and Switzerland. Which is annoying as I've bet everyone I'll get Ramsey's haircut if we reach the semis.

 

[Dan Severn's Moustache]

It is definitely possible that we could make it to the final, and we do have a recent victory against Belgium, but I don't want to get my hopes up too much.

 

[Pay Per Ghost]

You shouldn't, Iceland can do them over at this point.

 

[Blade]

This match is really fun...

 

[ShinChan]

Awesome goal.

It wouldn't be the first time you've had that haircut.

 

[Dowdsy McDowds]

Good to see Granit Xhaka is already well-versed in the 'how to bottle it' Arsenal philosophy already.

(Sorry Blade)

Robbie Savage is enough to make me root against Wales as a gloating Robbie would be too awful for words.

 

[Blade]

Oh well. Xhaka will be haunted by his miss all summer, then play with zero confidence for Arsenal. So it shall come to pass.
