UEFA Euro 2016 - France

Even though I have no great expectations of England football team anymore and I hardly know when they are playing, I really do think we are simmering at the moment. We do not seem to be doing to much, but winning every game. At this level it is not easy to do (or any level).

I think we will reach the quarters or even the semi’s of the euros, because are are ok and other ‘strong’ nations in Europe are not doing as well as they have in the past.

Avoid Span, Germany, Italy, and Portugal and we may just have a semi on!

What do you think of our chances?

lets just hope he picks the right players!

Semis? No chance. We’re shit. The fact that the press are wanking over one decent Barkley pass tells you everything you need to know.

Agreed, if we meet any of the teams above, but look,at the others in qualifying places!

We are fucking gash and that is all there is to it, we struggle to break down teams and simply run out of ideas.

The competition has deliberately been made bigger, more inclusive, and easier. I mean, c’mon, you’ve got a team like Gibraltar competing in the qualifiers, a “country” so unprepared for international football that they were considering playing one of their rock monkeys at left back.

It is not the same tournament.

Great to see Wales and Ireland qualifying.

does not matter who are in qualifying, as there has always been gash in the groups. We have won every game! Look at other groups… The Netherlands are out!

The bigger teams are nowhere near as good, so it is all relative.

Nothing devalued as the same teams will be in the last 8, just seems that overall the nations have all got weaker as teams, as we have stayed the game mediocre team.

There is another Germany trophy on the way!

You can already see it now England get to the finals with a 100% record then not win a game and fail to get out of the group stages.

Woy gets the bullet and they install Brendan Rodgers or Fat Sam who somehow managed to keep Sunderland up paving the way for another failure at the next world cup.

NOt sure I should ‘vote up’ this as its sadly a likely course of action for an FA that is the Prems bitch…

Part one of this prediction has come to fruition.

We now wait for the draw for the finals to be made to see who we get dicked by and as Wales are higher up the official table than England you can ensure it will be Germany, Poland and the Netherlands who after only scrapping through by the skin of their teeth will come good and end up in the final.

Well that prediction was shite as England have been confirmed as a top seed and the dutch failed to scrape there teeth clean.

I had mixed feelings over the Turkey late winner, as I love the Nertherlands, but also love Turkey! Shame that one had to fall, but the Netherlands have been crap!

It’s got to be worth a heavy weekender or two, this one. Even without tickets, assuming the French to the decent thing and provide fan zones like the Germans did in the WC a few years back.

It will end up like the last World Cup held in France every body praising the Celtic nations and goading the English, with the French Gendarmerie wading in with water cannon’s and big sticks.
