This reminds me of the time I was telling a couple of Spurs fans our nickname for Denayer was 'Holocaust' ... ... I know its terrible and wrong but it still makes me chuckle
the old 'game of two halfs' there like, quite enjoyed the days games so far mind, not as cut and dried as experts would have us think they were going to be.
Looking forward to watching Holland again. They are as mad as ever with talent in abundance and an ability to make the opponents look much better than they are.
Seen everyone at least once now. Chance to see where everyone is. For me Belgium perhaps have the best starting 11 and may be the ones to stop. My doubt with them is the coach and whether he will be out done from the touchline. Italy look good but play really high and a I reckon a team with pace might pick them off. France look really solid with some top forwards. Probable worthy favourites. England dominated and controlled and I think have a bench like no other team. Mention to Spain, if they can find a goal scorer they look to me like a team that can control any game and side. Wide open in my book at this stage and would be great to have the big guns in the quarters.
The orange of the Dutch bettered only by the gold of Brazil in terms of making me think we might see some beautiful football.
I missed the first half, but by all accounts Denmark were much the better team in the first half today. I don't think Belgium has as strong a squad as others, but the first team is probably the best in the world and on their day are pretty impressive. They worry me more than France, but to me the most impressive team so far have been Italy.
I’m still reserving judgement on Italy, that group is pants, fair play they are brushing teams aside but the opposition has been trash, it will be interesting to see them v Wales they may try and win the group
You weren't on here when he played for us ... ... or did you read this forum for year after year before you bucked up the courage to post
It is just before Scotland v England in the Euros Group game. Harry Kane goes into the English changing room to find all of his team mates looking a bit glum. "What's up?" he asks. "Well, we're having trouble getting motivated for this game. We know that it's important, but it's only Scotland. They're ****e and we can't be bothered" Kane looks at them and says "Well, I reckon that I could beat these by myself, so you lads go down the pub." Kane goes out to play Scotland by himself and the rest of the English team go off for a few pints. After a few jars they wonder how the game is going, so they get the landlord to put the telly on. A big cheer goes up as the screen reads England 1 - Scotland 0 (Kane 10 minutes). He is beating Scotland all by himself ! Anyway, a few more pints later and the game is forgotten until someone remembers "It must be full time now . . . . let's see how he got on". They put the telly on again. Result from the Stadium "England 1 (Kane 10 minutes) - Scotland 1"(Angus McShagnasty 89 minutes)" They can't believe it. He has single handedly got a draw against Scotland ! They rush back to the Stadium to congratulate him, but they find him in the dressing room, still in his gear, sat with his head in his hands, and he refuses to look at them. "I've let you down, I've let you down." "Don't be daft. You got a draw against Scotland all by yourself, and they only scored at the very end" "No, no, I have, I've let you down . . . . I got sent off after 12 minutes"
