Match Day Thread General matchday thread.

Woke up with the 'naa na na' chorus of the 3 Lions song as an earworm this morning and can't get rid of the fooker!

 

Eubank Snr, probably was one of the last boxers I would bother spending my time watching. I use to love the way he could wind people up. I didn't really follow his Son's career but yeah sad stuff, Snr will be totally devastated.

Phil Foden has picked up a knock and is not at training today.

 

Making yourself more nervous with this mate haha

Just embrace the day and hope for the best. But I think England will do it

 

Could be bullshite to fool the Italians. Probably means he will be starting tomorrow and the Italians will be like, thought this guy was.....oh shhite.

Then we unleash the weapon of Foden on them, sneaking round the back to feed crosses into Kane......job done, European Champions.

Then I wake up

 

More tickets going on sale from now. Probably a one in a million chance but let’s see.

 

From UEFA?

 

Yeah the official route. Maybe just corporate freebies that weren’t picked up but I’m just watching a red bar barely move for now as I imagine many are.

 

Someone I know has managed to get a ticket. Don't know if a points system is used, has followed them when playing in Eastern Europe or whether it's just pure luck.

 

I’ve been on since about 12.
I’m about a quarter down.

 

Gave up after a while. The first time I thought I had myself a “Fans First” ticket was exciting. The next 50 times less so.

 

Big question for me is whether he drops Mount to start with a back 3/5 and if that’s the case who gets that FWR position from Saka or Sancho.

Sancho’s directness would probably hurt them more or Saka could offer that extra cover defensively if we’re under the cosh.

I think every other position picks itself.

 

I got two Cat 2s miraculously.

Hoping to get some returns from the FA via Eng Fans or Vivo Azzurri then we are all sorted. We need three more tickets

 

It is a bit of luck or the Italian FA (via Vivo Azzurri and English FA (via England Supporters Travel CLub) are giving access codes to get tickets too

 

Think Saka starts due to flexibility/form so far.

 

1 more sleep guise

 

2 for me

 

Sunday afternoon nap planned?

 

if your mate followed England a lot he would have had enough caps for England Supporters Club sales window 1 on Thursday

I didn’t have that many caps so I had to wait to Sales Window 4 on Friday but they sold out by then

then I got 2 on uefa general sale today.
I also got 2 for semi on uefa general sale and 2 via England Supporters Club

I went four figures on a tout for Germany game. Kitchen doesn’t need upgrading. The colour scheme is fine
