    Hoping Croatia get at least a draw tonight so Wales don't have to play them!

    Yes, it is the player who broke his leg: Here's a Daily Mirror article that covers the relevant facts:

    The old hairline fracture type, probably just like yours.

    I see Germany don't **** about making random changes when their not guranteed to win the group, and their a much stronger force than we are! Take note Woy!

    Phil McNulty on BBC Football has been pretty scathing about Roy's selections. I can say I understand what he means, but he's always been a bit of a Yes man, when it comes to Hodgson. I, like quite a few others, when we can be bothered, have not fawned, but have been fairly evenly critical and praising of Roy, so to read the majority of this is pretty much where I, and several others, sit too. But it does seem slightly odd coming from McNulty:

    Pearce is a complete clown. The linesman was flagging for a goal kick you numpty not offside.

    I see Hector on the back of a German shirt. Is my first thought about the German player, or ex-Derby County's Kevin Hector, or Hector of Greek mythology fame.? Guess it's how old and educated I am. In truth it went:

    1] Kevin Hector of Derby County
    2] Hector of Troy
    3] Hector the German player.

    ;)

    It's "Will Grigg is on fire" to the tune of that.

    What are the words. She sings what sounds like her lover has got his trumble-eze.

    Found it myself....trumble-eze is strong beliefs (with an Italian accent).

    Massive shame, but pretty good to hold Germany to 1-0.

    This tournament so far has been...a grind.

    All hail the knockout stages. Please.

    Her lover's got no money but has strong beliefs. That's about the measure of that song. I've always slightly liked it.

    What happens in the reasonably likely event that third-placed teams (from different groups) have exactly the same record?

    Agreed, can't wait for teams to start going for it because they actually have to!

    Yeah. To be fair the better teams have to take a bit of responsibility and find some answers.
