[gavin]

It is hard to see how England are favourites.

Always favourites until the first game

[Stephen Paul]

Poor old Jack left out and on a bender in Spain

[gavin]

Maybe they will slip out a bit after tonight's performance. I managed a few minutes of the second half before switching Landward on instead.

[reddishblue]

If Norway are in it I'm going for them. Odds please Stevie.

[Stephen Paul]

If Norway are in it I'm going for them. Odds please Stevie.

Unfortunately not in it
You can get Albania at 500/1

What are the odds of plastic Ireland winnin it?

[Stephen Paul]

What are the odds of plastic Ireland winnin it?

Ireland couldn't beat eggs ffs

[Stephen Paul]

There is the usual massive media hype surrounding the England team

One slip and they will get slaughtered 

[gavin]

It actually starts on Friday night with Germany v Scotland. I doubt that I will watch much. I'm a bit torn between wanting our lads to do well and wanting them out, home early and getting a bit of rest like Jack and Erling.

[reddishblue]

Croatia at 40/1 looks a good bet to me.

[Stephen Paul]

Croatia at 40/1 looks a good bet to me.

Decent team

[Stephen Paul]

Every time you look at big Stones hes injured ffs

[gavin]

Yeh, he's been a top player for us but cannot be relied upon.

[Stephen Paul]

Looking forward to seeing Gundogan in action tonight

Good luck the Germans 

[gavin]

Not looking good for the Jocks. 3-0 down at half time and down to ten men. I've only ever seen City come back from that. Last minute winner from Macken at Spuds. What an absolute cracker.

[Stephen Paul]

Scotland got a right wake up call last night against an average German team

[Stephen Paul]

Spain looking decent

[gavin]

I might be slightly less totally disinterested when it reaches the knockout stages.

[Stephen Paul]

When do the riots start?

[gavin]

When England get beat

[gavin]

England started well and then bored me as usual. There are just too many players that I dislike too.

[Hesperus]

Foden had a very quiet game last night. Won't be long before the media start to get on his back. The Bellingham love fest continues.

I am hoping this is a tournament Foden will shine but he needs to step it up. Early days though.

[Stephen Paul]

Foden slaughtered on Talkshite

[gavin]

It is called Talkshite for a reason. If he scores a winner then he will be the best thing since sliced bread. Then if he has a quiet game, he will be shit again.

[Stephen Paul]

Always have a laugh at the Emglish media

England win their opening game and the media slaughter them 😂

[Stephen Paul]

Gundogan is pure class 

[gavin]

Robertson and McTominay playing for Scotland. Come on Manuel and Switzerland.

[Stephen Paul]

Still betting on the Portuguese to win it

[Stephen Paul]

Being Irish, my loyalties lie with Denmark this evening

Being Irish, my loyalties lie with Denmark this evening 

I met a Danish guy in Riyadh who instead of flying home decided to go on a trail bike instead, a 600cc if I remember correctly. Last heard of getting arrested in Jordan.

[Stephen Paul]

England poor first half

might take the dog for a walk

[gavin]

Yeh, I only saw 10 minutes and that was 10 minutes too much.

[Stephen Paul]

Probably the worst England performance I have ever seen and media refuse to comment on Bellingham's shite performance as they are determined to make him the perfect role model

[gavin]

His behaviour against City in the Champions League was a display of all of the worst in football. Petulance, play acting, time wasting, fouling and moaning. I can't stand the lad.

[Stephen Paul]

Joe Hart impressing me as a pundit

[gavin]

I've not really seen him much but he can only be better than the procession of rags that you see otherwise. Jenas on comms tonight, just how does he keep getting jobs? It is the same wankers as you see on Sky and TNT, as if they do a decent job on there.

[The Blue Blooded Maniac]

Typical that the English referee team take the longest so far on a VAR decisiy.

[The Blue Blooded Maniac]

Aki's been class n all

[Stephen Paul]

Aki's been class n all

top professional on and off the pitch

[Stephen Paul]

                                Kane
                     Gordon              Saka

                    Bellingham         Foden
 
                               Rice

Not rocket science

[gavin]

Some of this Belgium and Romania second half has been rather entertaining and KDB has just scored. First bit that I have enjoyed in this tournament.

[reddishblue]

I thought Kev was outstanding tonight, best player on the park.

[The Blue Blooded Maniac]

Ye Kev was immense. Doku looked mint as well. Doin what he does best and takin the defenders on.

Trossard was shite when he came on.

Lukaku can't buy a goal!

[Stephen Paul]

I was starting to question KDB appetite for the game, but he proved me wrong with a superb performance last night   

[Stephen Paul]

France and Germany now joint favourites at 4/1
England and Spain 5/1
Portugal 6/1
Dutch 14/1
Belgium 20/1
Italy 20/1
Scotland 200/1

[gavin]

England are far too short odds there for anyone sane to put money on them surely.

[reddishblue]

Scotland getting home before the postcards was always odds on.

[Stephen Paul]

Scotland were piss poor to be fair

[gavin]

I see Shearer has been saying that Scotland were denied a clear penalty last night. Strange that, there were two far more clear penalties missed for City in the FA Cup Final and they just got ignored by Shearer and the BBC.

[Stephen Paul]

some of the punditry at the Euros is shocking, usually just let the dog out for a pee at half instead of listening to that shite   

 

[Stephen Paul]

England 4/11
Draw 17/4
Slovenia 10/1

[Stephen Paul]

[The Blue Blooded Maniac]

Just caught the second half of Holland and Austria after work. VVD is shite. The Austria winner he played the striker on a mile. No mention of it from the commentators. Maybe cos one of em was Lawro? Hmm.

[gavin]

The group of zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

VVD has always been shite
put on a Peda stool by the media as a great defender

BOLLOCKS 

[Stephen Paul]

Switzerland v Italy
Germany v Denmark
England v Slovakia

10 quid om Portugal 6/1 still a decent shout

[gavin]

Switzerland v Italy
Germany v Denmark
England v Slovakia
Spain v Georgia
France v Belgium
Portugal v Slovenia
Romania v Netherlands
Austria v Turkiye

If England have anything about them then they should reach the Semis at least from here.

[Stephen Paul]

Today

[reddishblue]

[Stephen Paul]

Today

Switzerland V Italy
Germany V Denmark

fancy the Swiss and Germans

easy money

[Stephen Paul]

England V Slovakia

Spain V Georgia

Fancy both draws 90 minutes

[gavin]

Think you'll be losing money there. Surely, England and Spain must win.

[The Blue Blooded Maniac]

England are lookin.... Like England 

[gavin]

They'd settle for a draw right now. They are like a team of strangers.

[Hesperus]

Good goal to equalise but it's been a shocking performance on the pitch and off the pitch.

As much as I hate to say it. Foden has had a very poor tournament. 4 games and he's done nothing. I know Southgate hasn't helped but I've been so disappointed in his performances. I doubt he'll get another chance in the next game.

[The Blue Blooded Maniac]

Booooo

[gavin]

What a fantastic goal from Rodri. Masterful.

[Stephen Paul]

What a fantastic goal from Rodri. Masterful.

World class that fella

[Stephen Paul]

France V Belgium
Portugal V Slovenia

France and Portugal to win

[gavin]

Portugal are a lot worse than you would think that they should be as well.

[gavin]

All that work to get to penalties then Slovenia muff all three of them. At least Bernardo did better than his last one for City.

[Stephen Paul]

KDB missed that big chance in the 70th minute 

[gavin]

Lets get him nicely rested for the big season ahead 

[Stephen Paul]

Friday 5 July
Spain vs Germany (Stuttgart, 18:00)
Portugal vs France (Hamburg, 21:00)

Saturday 6 July
England vs Switzerland (Dusseldorf, 18:00)
Netherlands vs Türkiye (Berlin, 21:00)

[gavin]

Only three weeks until the first match of the pre season tour of the USA.

[gavin]

Credit where it is due to this England team, they took some bloody good penalties. It is still not good football though.

[Stephen Paul]

good chance of winning the Euros now

[Stephen Paul]

Who is going to stop the mighty Gareth Southgate 

[Stephen Paul]

Spain V France today
England V Holland tomorrow

Spain V England final ? 

[gavin]

I'm delighted for Rodri, Ayme, Jesus and Ferran to make it to the final. Ayme especially, considering how Deschamps refused to pick him for France.

[Stephen Paul]

Spain started out at 8/1 , definitely a decent shout

[gavin]

Dodgy penalty for England but they are finally getting the ball to Phil in the right areas.

[Stephen Paul]

Mon the Spanish
 
 

[Hesperus]

Phil's best game by far. So Southgate subs him. Anyway glad he's finally playing up to his potential. Hopefully he's saved his best for the final.

[gavin]

Spain were the best side by some distance. Southgate should go but not for losing the final but because of shit performances over the tournament. Not that I'm arsed. I just hope that Rodri is okay.

[reddishblue]

Thank fuck that's all over. When are City on?

[gavin]

00.30 on 24th July on City plus v Celtic

[Stephen Paul]

bit of a damp squid

one week Gareth is a bellend, second week , a knighthood, third week a bellend     

[The Blue Blooded Maniac]

Thank fuck that's all over. When are City on?

This!

[Stephen Paul]

Rodders might need a rest
