    Well, there will be more trouble so I expect to see some disqualifications.

    They've backed themselves into a corner slightly

    trouble is usually just classified as stadium trouble

    UEFA should look at themselves. Why on earth did they send the English back to Marseille? Especially against Russia. Anyone could see this coming.

    Platini knew, but he wasn't telling, so there.

    Yeah, if there's "only" trouble outside the stadiums from now on, then it's a police matter and UEFA will just shrug their shoulders and say that they did all they could. Pathetic.

    Uk government offering to send over more officers to help on match days........segregation should be looked at in the grounds as well.

    Croatia completely outclassed Turkey today, should've been 4 or 5 nil really.

    I really like Bilic as a pundit. No idea if he's talking sense or not but he's fun to watch and listen to :)

    A very, very good performance. Your midfield is superb.
    An outside chance at winning the whole thing!

    Yep, mainly because Lovren is safely this side of the Channel. :)

    Steven Davis expected to be playing just behind Lafferty. Further forward than he usually does for Northern Ireland

    Lewandowski gets all the plaudits but watch out for Milik, he's had a brilliant season with Ajax and will provide just as much of a threat.

    Proud moment for Davis coming up - leading out his country at a major tournament. :)

    Cheers Tom.

    First two pictures I saw when tuning in were of Steven Davis and Chris Baird. That made me smile.

    Note: Just noticed the new rules being enacted. No need to pass forward at kick-off.

    So why do two players still stand there to take it? This kind of thing annoys me a lot.

    Steven Davis the first saints player to feature in the tournament.
    Chris Baird is the third from the academy

    Chris Baird still looks about 18.

    I will be surprised if Northern Ireland manage to score a goal this tournament.
