I'm not a massive stakes gambler, but i've already got 2 quid on France
and might stick a bit more on before the tournament starts.
They are the best team in Europe, however Germany and Italy can always do it on their day
And England have a punchers chance, but I fear their best chance already slipped through their fingers
This is my type of football. Not pissing about tippy tappy.
Spoke too soon.
"Where's the bloke eh love?"
Not only a woman but an American one at that.
Jocks lose 5 - 1 and not one shot on target. (own goal)
The commentators after, totally ignored the multiple ambulance/police sirens blaring out from outside the stadium.
I'll take a guess it was the pissed up sweaty's having a barny.
Germany looked impressive though.
Kevin Campbell RIP
Apparently Budweiser is the official beer of the England football team.
Why? Firstly it's American and secondly it tastes like piss water.
There must be some decent English beers or are they the only ones willing to pay stupid amounts of money?

You have your answer.
Europe's a big market for them, mostly lager drinkers, as are the majority of English footy fans. And they have big brewing plants here. There also aren't many home grown lagers, I can't actually name one. All our best selling lagers originated abroad.
I think it's funny Koeman complaining when he thinks one of his players has been fouled. I've got a long memory.
Good, if slightly painful win.
Onward and upward.
I was impressed for about a quarter of an hour, then it was business as usual, with the "let's pass the ball between us at the back until we lose it to the opposition" - is that manoeuvre writ somewhere in some old English football manual? Boring! No flare, and is not going to work against the French, Spanish or Germans.
Yes that's Southgate's manual defo.
But they're not aloud to play with flares anymore, or sparklers.

Yes but apparently sadist Southgate was pleased with that, We needed the pain he said afterward. Well I think there's plenty of fans who'd happily give him the pain he desires if we keep playing like that and go out again.
Didn't you all know? We're favourites to win it this year.

Maybe Southgate should let them do that, instead of wearing shorts, and have 3 lions team cardies, as he's so fond of them

And also having seen her now there's another ticked box.
