EURO 2012

"assaulted by polanski" hm

kerzhakov has been pretty bad even disregarding his finishing

yeah the 3-0 was gone midnight
xp

i remember wilkins getting sent off on a friday as i was staying at my grans and she let me stay up .
Also remember being allowed to stay up on a schoolnight to see denmark beating scotland.

greece's attacking players are worse even than ireland's

i remember when samaras joined citeh he described it as a stepping stone to one of europe's biggest clubs

(onimo mutters something about jock stein)

Am I the only one watching Ch-Pol?

i'm watching it

poland offering nothing this half so far

lol I was just laughing at that classic Samaras break there, nice touch, rides a tackle, overruns the ball, has to challenge to keep it, somehow still has it, strides forward past another man, gets excited, shoots ridiculously wide from 30 yards, fixes his hair, expressionless.

His whole career in 10 seconds

xxxp

The analysis of the Greek goal was hilarious:

"Good goal"
"Keeper should've saved it in my view"

I can only assume they couldn't see the start of the clip in the studio.

xxxp - I am too, but it's not too much to write home about at present. Limbersky's looking bright, but no-one's really looking like scoring. It pretty much is what it is.

poland czech game is shite. lewandowski should've scored first half. that's about it. czech maybe on the front foot now?

If Greece votes anti-Europe tomorrow, wouldn't the team have to leave this tournament too?

yeah, Poland look out of ideas

yes

xps I'm pretty sure Eng-Arg 1986 was on a Sunday evening, 'cos I have a vivid memory of my pals coming to the door with about fifteen minutes to go, wanting me to come out & play football. I couldn't believe it - "nothing's going to happen now" they said.

they look scared now tbh xp

of limbarski for sure

czech gonna score now i think

The many pronunciations of Dzagoev have been a highlight of this tournament. Grampa Mick just tried "Saguraff".

lol samaras arguing with referee while gekas is open

poland gonna do a new zealand and go out unbeaten at this rate at best

Greece denied a clear penalty, Karagounis is "doing his fruit down there" having been booked for diving.

it's zagoyev or maybe tzagoyev i think

IK: Might have been 5pm or 6pm kick-off maybe, but I don't think it was later than that: my aunt & uncle & cousin were there (at my house, not in Mexico) and they lived about 50 miles away so they wouldn't have been there at 10pm or something. If only there was a way of finding out...

how many times did karagounis cross himself there?

It's not very good at the moment, no. But I desperately want Poland to win, they stole my <3 with the first two games.

Karagounis kicked the tackler's leg and fell over imo - debatable.

Should I start watching the Greece game instead?

Greece have only ever won one group game before tonight. It'll be ridiculous if Russia go out here.

TYTON YOU MAGNIFICENT BASTARD!

(this remark has been made by a proud PSV fan :)

Can fully see Pilar being a massive disappointment for Wigan next season.

how many times did karagounis cross himself there?

dunno but he did it wrong every time

yeah i mean Poland are obviously miles better than CR. They can't even get out of their half now though

what a save!

leggo polska!

tyton got hit by the ball, then punched it.

Russia are playing shockingly weak right now

I could try getting in contact with my pals whom I haven't seen for twenty-odd years xp, but no guarantee they'd remember it...

Good! Karagounis is suspended against Holland! ;-)

has lewandowski touched it this half?

group eh

poland look like they've knackered themselves out. they looked good in the first half but all their attacking players seem to want to run full pelt with the ball past 3 defenders. seem like they've got nothing left to give now, like in the greece game.

I want Lewandowski's shoulders. Best shoulders of all players in these Euros imho

multiple xps, The D isn't really pronounced in Dzagoev when Russians say it but idk how the Ossetians would say it.

gomez has great shoulders too. xp.

NBS: the Azteca had that crazy shadow from the overhead mikes, or whatever they were. If we knew the stadium's alignment we could probably work out the local time from the sun's alignment, then adjust for GMT.

Good thinking

gomez has great shoulders too. xp.

Yes! Forgot about him, Gomez has brilliant shoulders too. So broad, so good.
