I think there will be goals and think this might be a Saintesque performance from England where we have a good first half and get pegged back in the second...
2-2 with Kane and Mount scoring.

Well the clock is ticking for me.
After the patting myself on the back for fixing my hot tub impeller, I discovered that I didn't (total schoolboy error) put the seal back in the pump casing when I replaced the impeller.....
Only a small amount of water leaked to be fair overnight, but enough to have to take it apart again and put it in this time.
Have a tree to cut down too...all before 1pm
Pressure's on, but the dishwasher was a slam dunk today so the day will be perfect.
2-1 England. Kane both goals.

There will also be a particularly un-Saintsesque point at 2-2, when a free kick to England, about 10 metres outside Croatia's penalty area, will be taken by one of England's stars, and will sail harmlessly over the crossbar. Every Saints fan, and every pundit who knows what they are talking about (so about half of them) will say "Prowsie would've nailed that".
[HASHTAG]#Bitter[/HASHTAG]? Moi?
I think the opposite. Think it'll be a dull affair first half and we'll come into it more as the game comes on.
Expect their midfield to dominate (the ball and the match in general) early on so might be some patience required.
I'd like to see Grealish start but if not he could be a hell of an impact sub, especially if he feels he has a point to prove.
If had to predict I’d say will be a draw, both teams not wanting to lose and I assume they are the favourites to finish 1st and 2nd

Ummmmm Trippier at left back?
I love you Gareth but bloody hell you're not helping yourself here.

I honestly can't get my head round that, though the rest of the team seems okay.
Oh well, let's see what happens shall we.

Haha funny that @Le Tissier's Laces liked this. Just reminded me of a similar post he made about Ralph towards the end of the season.
I am sick and tired with Southgate's obsession with ****ing right backs. We have two excellent left backs in Shaw and Chilwell. Playing Trippier at LB is an insult to both of them.
Back from pre match beers, wearing my tournament Tee first saw the light of day at the 2006 Germany WC. Seems to have shrunk a good bit since then.

Ridiculous team selection, no Saints players in the squad. Confidence in the team at rock bottom. It definitely feels like the start of a major tournament now!!! COME ON ENGLAND!!!!!
What the absolute **** is that?
I was reading it might be for Trippier's set pieces.
So it’s better to have Prowse out than being able to play Shaw or Chilwell at LB?
Well worth it to have an unfit Jordan Henderson on the bench isn’t it?
That national a

So here we go, the talking is done and it's time for the rollercoaster to begin. We've got a sport which needs bringing home. Getting one over the side who broke our hearts 3 years ago will be a great way to start the tournament and lift the mood of the nation going into the game against the auld enemy.
Limited crowds to begin with but I'm sure they'll increase as it goes on and it'll sound near enough full anyway. Let's make the home advantage count!
Not got a lot to say here really, but how about some videos to get the blood pumping.
Loving this video compilation (Goosebumps at the Dier pen!)

Best rendition of a national anthem ever - Gareth only one you can hear above the crowd- could maybe even re-create it in 4 weeks time..

That national anthem video is simply amazing. Don't think you'd get an atmosphere that good at the modern Wembley
Beers are cold, crisps and other snacks available.
It's coming home
Have I missed something. Why isn't Sancho on the bench, when two goalkeepers are?
