I was quietly confident that the Czech Republic would make it out of the group stage., Mind you, I thought Croatia would make it out too....... Anyhow,. most pundits didn't give'um a chance at the start of the tournament. Now all the Czechs need to do is hit the Portuguese with a couple of goals on the break and 'hey presto', games over. I assume there will be a prize for the person(s) (thats me) who drew-out the most unlikely team to make it to the simi(s) ?.
In the spirit of gracious sportsmanship and fair play, I'd like to congratulate the dirty Spanish group of cheats and their ref pal who committed/missed a really blatant shirt pull near the end of the game in front of goal which robbed Croatia of a richly deserved victory. The reason why not just football, but the entire universe is going straight to hell, is that because the Croatian player reacted as a sportsman should, which is to say that he didn't resort to despicable histrionics, he didn't get the call. Also, UEFA officials should be publicly pissed on and shot for their farcical tiebreaking procedure which also cost mighty Croatia their rightful spot in the next round. I think I'm taking this rather well.
Just pretending to bemoan my exit from the sweepstakes without a prize--though I was a little amazed at the shirt pull and the non-reaction. Kind of like Croatia though. In my city, you tend to be either pro-Croatian or pro-Serb, since there are a lot of both and they don't like each other. And I've had a bunch of Croatian friends and one Croatian girlfriend. Plus I had a really interesting time traveling through Croatia a couple of weeks before the civil war broke out.

Final four. Who's gonna win it? Got a problem with the prize now. The winner was going to win a ticket to the final and a seat in the dugout with Woy and his staff but after last night that won't be possible

Surely you can't win it until the end of the final making the tickets for the final redundant. I'm starting to think you were lying!
We've been tricked!! A set up - KH works for the FA. Who would want to sit in the England dugout you'd fall asleep if Roy was talking tactics.
i thought that too Luke...ive said it before all these people in high places within football are a bit dodgy.
I don't know what you're talking about. For those that don't know, El Bando's also a mod, just not on this board...
