I hope we get to play France this tournament. Like watching Aston Villa.

Not really. I've quite enjoyed them so far.

It has seemed that way to me. After the initial excitement i've now reached the point where I only care if a Spurs player is involved.

Overall its been dissapointing, the quality has been average, big nations haven't really stepped up, crap pitches, crap security, weather hasn't been great, hooligans etc...

Hopefully we'll see everything improve in the knock out stages.

 

[Mr Pink]

I think its been pretty poor so far as well. No real humdingers yet.

Really hoping it improves, Spain's performance against Turkey is obviously the performance of the tournament so far.

Croatia really should of battered the Cech's though - that literally should of been 6 or 7 nil.

You wouldn't happen to be Irish would you?

You wouldn't happen to be Irish would you?

Nope. I've just enjoyed the games a lot more than the rest of you, clearly.

Here's something to cheer up you miserable sods some magic from French TV (took me a couple of watches to work out what they'd done)

 

[Spurger King]

I've been enjoying it!

I agree that the overall quality hasn't been good, but there have been a number of surprise results and some great goals.

I've enjoyed watching Iceland, seeing Wales and Northern Ireland winning (and of course Wales losing to us), along with fake Ronaldo getting progressively more angry. The security has been shit, but at the very least it's not been uneventful.

There are also signs of teams starting to click into place. Italy have shown glimpses, Belgium seem to be coming together at the right time, and Spain are..well...Spain. Pretty confident that the knock-out stages will produce some more drama.

I've enjoyed it so far. But driving down Wood Green tonight you'd have thought Albania had just won the bloody thing.

 

[Col_M]

Albania and Iceland have been terrific. France are toilet and are scrapping through to the final aren't they?

That's very clever. Can't wait for the porn version.

Just like they did in '98 on home soil.
