Well that's the group games over and done with and all in all its not been a bad tournament so far. A couple of upsets, Russia not winning their group cost me big time, Holland a disaster, how the hell did Greece get through, the lack of real quality strikers at this tournament. But i think you have to be happy so far... Got to be happy England are through but not maybe with the actual playing style of the team, but were into the knockout stage now and as Chelsea showed earlier this year its luck at the right time that you need now. Oh, and a few goals from your top players...!!! Wazza looks to have put weight on in his feet as he cant jump since he last played... John Terry looked a picture of innocence after making that 'goal' line clearance... Whats happened to the form of Young this year, he looks short of ideas and confidence to me... All these problems are now for Roy to sort out and get right for the Pasta Boys on Sunday... Of the lads in the comp only Gorgeous George got ALL 4 group winners, well done GG... With myself, at the moment, topping the prediction charts... But ive no points to come from the winners, top goal scorer etc as my pathetic selections of anything Orange has failed me, so all to play for... Many thanks to all the lads who have entered but now its the real crunch time and the Quarter-finals and beyond...!!!
Been a very good tournament so far red! I really hope england dont win it cus we will never hear the end of it(sorry!!).
Finally a day off for the racing and it's absolutly persisting down. Footie out of the way first. Czech rep 1 Portugal 3 can see that dirty winker stealing the show again tonight, got 7/1 for 2 goals or more last time but think bet 365 will be trimming the odds now that he's found his scoring boots. Good look with the soggy hat and dress spotting today!

Knockout Stage of the Euro Championships As the lads have beaten me to it, my fault im afraid, i was just going to say how the Knockout stage will work... Plainly these matches can go to penalties so i was going to say if you think the overall score will be a draw, 1-1, 2-2 etc then you get 3points for correct score and 1 for correct result as usual, but you would get a extra bonus point for predicting the winner of the penalties... As for the matches that go to 90 or 90+et then whatever score you have put down will be for the full result at final whistle... ok, and good luck as usual...
missed the last round... oooops!! Czech rep 0 Portugal 2 Germany 3 Greece 0 Spain 2 France 1 England 1 Italy 1 (at 90 mins)
Thursday Czech rep 0 Portugal 1 Friday Germany 4 Greece 0 Saturday Spain 3 France 0 Sunday England 2 Italy 0
