Who's everyone backing to win the Euros, and what's the opinions so far on the teams, the Dutch Look terrible, Greeks look about as good as their banks, Poland and Ukraine will run out of steam imo, But I think my £100 on Germany to win the Tournament looks a good bet right now, but it would be foolish to rule the Spaniards out yet, they will improve if they actually play a striker. As long as the French don't win it, Happy Days.

I knew i should have a side bet on the Russians to have most arrests !!

That's what happens mate when you take up a sport that involves hitting a ball with a stick, then standing around for hours on end chasing a ball around like a Yorkshire Terrier, but i know why, it's all that drinking Tea and eating scones at the intervals !!

A sport is only worth playing if you stop for a Buffet halfway through :mrgreen:

Edit: Spelling mistake :roll:

Agreed, that's why I play a lot of Pub sports, i.e Snooker and Pool.......But could never eat the dripping and Black Pudding. Just everything else !

I was singing Russia's praises as the dark horses of the competition, then the lazy, stupid hat wearing b*stards went and slacked against the Poles.

Having just seen Germany tonight, I think they can go all the way. But my money's still on Portugal though

Was thinking the same foxi but they didn't seem to like having to put the graft in. I expect them to cruise past Greece though.

Don't think there has been a game I haven't enjoyed yet apart from Germany-Portugal. Germany as expected look a class apart in their division. Holland making life hard for themselves but I have a sneaky feeling they will qualify on goal difference. Spain having another slow start but I think they will have a very hard job to win it again. Quite happy with Englands performance. We've not done well playing attacking football in recent history so I think this change will suit us. If we can beat Sweden i'm optimistic we can top the group.

How can you be Optimistic by saying "if we can beat Sweden", we should walk over a team like that, another game we invented but are sh!te at !!

I can't wait for the World Cup in Russia 2018, I am gonna get my revenge on the Ruskies !!

Oh no, i will be 46, may be past it !!

got to say i think there has been a bad match yet!

Would that be "there has not been a bad match yet". also Greece missed a penalty against the Polaks !! :oops:

My opinion of the Euros is that it was a good fiscal idea in the first instance but now I think it's a flawed currency - bring back schillings & pfennigs
