EURO 2012

he also said Poland would "go home"

surprised lineker is pressing moyes like this

lol hes still going

he wants him for spurs

apologize to Harry you bastard

at what stage would greece face england on the way to their second championship

haha
xp

And now Shearer's joined in.

"Do you think Bill Kenwright would give you permission to talk to Spurs?" I want them to work Clarence into this.

clarence you've been to some good west end musical entertainments in your time haven't you clarence

shearer makes it sound like avb shouldn't get another job cos the chelsea players didn't like him. Did the porto players hate him too?

here comes Pav

Don't remember the kick-off times being particularly ungodly for Mexico 86? I'm pretty sure the Hand of God game was on a Sunday afternoon (UK time), and England v Paraguay early evening. I have vague memories of seeing Wilkins get sent off and Robson injured on a Friday night (?) in a dreadful game in the group stages. The 3-0 with Lineker's goals must have been late and on a school night because I didn't see that live.

"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...
