    This is the thread to discuss all things Euro 2012... from player and team news.... to matches or incidents.

    We're only days away now and the excitement is starting to build.

    Let's hope for an entertaining tournament and our French lads returning safely and injury free.

    A decent opening night tomorrow.

    I'm going for:

    Poland 2-1 Greece
    Russia 1-1 Czech Republic

    How do you see it panning out?

    Poland to beat Greece, but Russia vs The Czech Republic is going to be a hard one. No quarter given, should be a good game.

    Even though I continually say to myself that I couldn't give two ****s about England I've still found myself scrambling around work trying to find someone to cover my late shift on Monday so I can see the game. Funny that.

    Going to be hard to root against Yo and Benny though :|

    Hasn't even started yet and there's already been a case of racial abuse from one of the home nations local 'football fans'.
