Maybe you should get bigger TV.

quote: ORIGINAL: shunwick The only thing England has going for them (and I admit - it's a biggy) is that they can put the ball in the back of the net. That's what it is all about. Beautiful football, loads of possesion, and heaps of pressure get you nowhere if you cannot score. Yes, that's why Spain are the current World & European Champions [;)] Because you must necessarily be thinking about Spain, as she is the only team that plays that sort of football... But after all they score. And they would be scoring much more if all the teams were N O T parking the bus (aka admitting they are weaker) when playing them (as in the WC)... This kind of football is fabulous. Nothing is free: you keep the ball and try to get to the goal. The other option? Long ball that is intercepted by the defenders 9 out of 10 times... In other words, you are literally giving the ball to your opponent. Now that's exciting [:D] And above all, this is by far the best defence as the opponent cannot even smell the ball, as they are chasing ghosts. Keep running and catch me if you can...

quote: ORIGINAL: doomtrader Maybe you should get bigger TV. Warspite1 What's with the stupid snide comments? All comments about Poland by the English have been positive, but you can't help yourself can you? Let me make clear - THE "GOAL" was offside so should not have counted anyway. In addition, even had it counted, we would still have finished top of the group [8\|]

doomtrader -> RE: European Championships (6/20/2012 7:27:23 AM)
If it was offside why didn't the referee stopped the action? Seems that he was completely blind. Warspite, I'm not commenting English, I'm commenting referee. And Poland sucks anyway, but they couldn't done better.

warspite1 -> RE: European Championships (6/20/2012 7:39:47 AM)
The linesman missed the offside and then, to compound the error, one of the officials, literally standing about 5 yards from where the ball crossed the line - and in line with the goalline - missed the fact the ball completely crossed said line. As has been commented before, the extra officials have proven completely worthless in this tournament...

Mac67, I'm sorry if you find my post rude or offensive. I didn't meant it to be personally.

quote: ORIGINAL: warspite1 I agree. Let's face it, we're England - it's going to be tough whoever we play, and our record against the "big boys" in tournament football is pretty dire. On balance of course you would prefer Italy to Spain, but that does not mean Italy should be treated with anything other than the utmost respect. Let's just hope we don't embarrass ourselves. Not quite sure that England can play any worse than against the Germans in the 2010 WC. Wait!!! They didn't play they just watched the Germans pass the ball around the field. Will post my results this evening. Mat

Well with a night off from the Euro's its back to matters domestic. Latest hot rumour is that Andre Villas-Boas is going to be offered the Spurs job. You know how David Icke and other nutters believe that the world is controlled by lizards? Well I think that theory is starting to sound very plausible...[&:]

saso777 -> RE: European Championships (6/20/2012 9:29:10 PM)
I think at the end Germany will win the trophy.

british exil -> RE: European Championships (6/20/2012 9:36:15 PM)
Czech Rep vs Portugal 1 - 2 Germany vs Greece 4 - 0 Spain vs France 2 - 0 England vs Italy 2 - 1 May the best team win, hoping it will be the team with the 3 Lions. Crossing my fingers, not an easy feat whilst typing away on my keyboard. Mat
