    Bit of a non starter this. Anyone who suggests the Euros are better needs a punch in the mouth.

    Looking forward to this Euro's a lot more than the last World Cup from an England perspective but on the whole, I prefer the WC.

    Unless there's vuvu-****ing-zelas

    World Cup without a doubt, more quality, more games :) especially love it when a European country hosts as they already have most of the infrastructure in place and the games are not on at a ridiculous time.

    The Euro's are just a mild irritable sideline whilst we wait to be truly pissed off by screwing up at the World Cup yet again!

    Wouldn't miss a single second of England's games of either though.

    World Cup for me, but I am quickly becoming totally disinterested in International football as it screws up the footy season, think it must be my age.

    No competition between the two. The World Cup is always better to watch. As Sunderlad said particularly when it's in Europe!

    To be honest, I wouldn't be bothered if England got knocked out in the group stages! He hasn't picked form or fitness (not in all cases) when you take Wilshere and Henderson (fitness) and Raheem ****ing Sterling (Form!), he's picked his mates and the ones he likes rather than the best for the job (This is not a "Defoe" rant by the way but there are better, more reliable options than some he has taken!)

    I prefer the World Cup - especially the 1966 vintage.

    But the world cup can also be a bore. Oz v Algeria. Iran v S Korea. Maybe. But who would watch that ****e?

    As opposed to Albania v Switzerland, Austria v Hungary, Spain v anyone.

    There's (I think) a lot more evenly matched, nullifying each other, scared to lose matches in the european championships.

    And 'euros' is a much more cringey name than 'world cup'

    Gonna buck the trend here, UEFA's for me as I find them a lot more competitive than the "zonal" political world cup that has developed over the years.
