hahaha of course. One thing I will say about England and our fans is have you noticed yogi that the hooligan stuff at England games seems to have ended? Rememeber Euro 2000? Disgraceful scenes, its why we never win world cup bids, but that seems to have all stopped touch wood.

My run down so far!

Poland looked good first half with some young players and big home support. Greece came back strong and showed spirit!!

Russia looked awesome but i have to say their defence would have problems against better sides. Czech Rep actually played well and are not out of it yet!

Holland blew a great chance, play Germany next and suddenly look vulnerable(sorry Chopper) Denmark stuck in there but surely are no great shakes!

Germany v Portugal was a stinker. Germany will win the tournament playing like that and Portugal only started playing when it was too late!

Spain v Italy was a good match, 2 good sides pretty evenly matched. Ireland played with spirit in front of their great support and Croatia looked good, possible tournament dark horses!

England to win 5-0 later and Sweden Ukraine to play out a bore draw shocker

You're right Yogi, we should've won that game. Now, it could all be over for us come Wednesday! I wish you guys good luck against the French. Strange enough, England is a bit of the underdog today, but that could work in your favor!

Thanks Chopper. Yes we are all a bit low key about today and the French are favoutites so lets just get out there and beat them

Hopefully your boys can turn it around against those damn Germans later in the week

Well the Russians chinned some stewards the other night and the Croatians were scrapping with the police last night but nothing too bad! If it were England they would be screaming for us to be thrown out. Our hooligan problem does seem to have abated...no more fighting the Tunisians on the beach in Marseille and tearing apart whole city centres like Charleroi back in '98.......

If we beat the Germans Yogi....I'll probably have more than one beer !

This picture says it all. Van Persie, just seconds after the end whistle of the game against Denmark, decides to make a fucking phone call to who ever while still standing on the field.

If I was the coach, I would send him home, egoistical bastard.

come on Sverige and england tonight! watching the sweden match ith my grandpa tonight. he full blood swede I know its early to say but i think holland might not get passed group stage

Probably talking to City's owners about how much he will get a week....

Come on England..

Good result overall, we would take that every time. Its a shame it makes the game dull but we can't really compete with France in flair. It could of been even better, Milner really should of scored that...

I think 1-1 is a decent start against a strong France team on a long unbeaten streak.. I think if the game lasted 15 minutes longer France would have scored again. there forward line was class on the ball, but i think better teams might catch their defence out..

Overall a good start for England, bring on Sweden..

Fairly impressed with England. Strong defence and good spirit! France looked ok but nothing special!!

Ukraine beat Sweden with 2 goals from 97 year old Shevchenko!!

Your grandpa will not be happy Short, pressure on Sweden now, especially with the next game against the mighty England

tbh England have got to worry bout sweden. If Sweden but whilhelmson on. that could be dangerous for England. Sweden are very organised and pass quick

Swedes have always had good organised sides!!

i dont know why we picked so many over thirtys! gt the young ones experienced for world cup qualification

And we always seem to draw against Sweden..

They have met quite alot havent they!

I'm in a random pool where everyone is assigned a country in the tournament. I got the Czech Republic and Spain. Are my chances good?

The Czech Republic don't stand a change. Spain is a big favorite, but I don't think they will grab the title yet again.

Spain definitely have a good chance Klyd...shame you missed out on Ireland though

Good games yesterday, i thought Poland v Russia was a cracker!!

More crowd violence as well between the Poles and Russkis who just love each other

I saw Ireland was beaten by Croatia, Yogi, and being of proud Irish descent, I always have a soft spot in my heart for them. I would think both countries are long shots, but was this result expected.

I was reading where the Church was holding a major international conference of some kind in Dublin, and all of the foreign prelates attending felt especially honored when they saw the streets filled with Irish flags and enthusiasm upon their arrival. They eventually learned that the excitement was for the match against Croatia.

Germany v Holland should be a good game tonight, big rivalry..

Russia have been docked 6 points (to come into effect for 2016 qualifying) due to poor crowd behaviour. Russian fans have long had a reputation for trouble, of course FIFA reward this by giving them the hosting rights for the world cup 2018. Also during this Euro there has been incidents of racist chantings such as towards Mario Balloteli and towards the Dutch while they were warming up. FIFA are a corrupt organization who don't care about countries being suitable to host. Its disgraceful that England, the home of football hasn't apparently been fit to host a World Cup since 1966.

Ha Nicky, what a comment! so true!

WOW no chance for netherlands now! really wanted them to go to final aswell!

The 6 points are suspended..

Found Germany vs Netherlands astonishingly disappointing. Am sorry for the Oranjes though.

Today Italy vs Croatia - expecting a hot match, since both teams want victory. Go Croatia!
Oh! And Spain vs Ireland.

Damn what a horrible game last night.

Well Germany were all over Holland. I may be English, but I really respect Germany, there always so clinical in big tournaments. Ozil is a fantastic players him and Schweinsteiger ripped the Dutch to pieces.
