    Just realised the BBC tweet actually says tomorrow at 5.15...

    BBC Sport ‏@BBCSport
    Ready for Saturday's #Euro2016Draw? Watch on BBC2 at 17:15GMT

    It's on now, why would they televise it tomorrow? :emoticon-0112-wonde

    Didn't realise that. Those extra officials are laughable.

    It seems it's just a pre-draw press conference on now, the draw is actually tomorrow. <doh>

    Officials behind the line are only used to see if the ball goes behind the line aren't they? That's pretty stupid when a computer can give you the correct decision in a split second with pin point precision.

    But those officials behind the line could be especially useful for other things, PK decisions in particular. With officials ever finding themselves left behind the action an extra set of eyes close up and a different viewpoint can only be a good thing.

    Based on that list at the start, I think Denmark and Slovenia are two dark horses that could make the quarter finals at least. Get down to William Hill now - tell them I sent you.

    You'd probably get your stake money back if they actually took the bet.

    I think they can contribute towards penalties and corners too can't they?

    I reckon Italy, Poland and Wales would be the worst draw for England. Now watch it happen...

    An error? You're making it far to easy for them, playing straight into their hands.

    And we're in business.

    I wonder if OLM is watching again...

    In group B - which is good news. (Group E is harder, for confusing reasons.)

    What a load of overblown nonsense, it's just not interesting watching blokes struggling to open kinder eggs and reading out bits of paper. It should be computerised so that they can just announce the results after showing us some decent clips of all the competing nations.

    Portugal, Iceland and France are the big winners so far, with pot 2 to be drawn. Italy the one to avoid, surely.

    Ukraine or Russia wouldn't be a bad draw here.

    Wales, that should be an epic match!

    Groups A and F are completely powderpuff. Group E is the deathly one. C and D should be tasty too.

    ROI won't be happy.
