Ha ha yeah & when you point out the soaps are on every day, all year round, they don't appreciate it at all! 😄

Yeah, I hardly watch any TV and my Mrs has about 90% of the TV in our house but if there’s any football on more than one day a week she says ‘football again?’ Haha.

To be fair they do look like they would smell great

My mate has just said they’re basically Sven era England.

I thought the same - the Golden Generation who won nothing (and didn't even get to a final).

Ha ha I spotted that at the time but in all the replays of the goal they didn't show him getting up.

It was a miracle the Italians made it to 90 minutes with 11 men on the field, what with all those life threatening injuries most of their players suffered in the last 10 minutes

I saw someone describe Martinez as Spanish Pardew.

You know what, as awful as that is, it did make me laugh. Or smile at least. Hey, at least it's not racist

Didn't Belgium get to the World Cup semi last time?  (just checked, they did). But yeah, I was forgetting that England getting to the semis of the Euros in 96 was before the "Golden Generation" of course.

I think Belgium will look back and rue giving Martinez the responsibility of managing that squad and golden generation. A top class coach would probably have lead them to tournament win over the past 5 years.

Yeah that actually amused me.

As you say, not racist so that’s a start.

I had £5.83 in my Sky Bet account so I’ve stuck it on 3-0 to England at 17/2 😊

[steviewevie]

England should win easily, so 1-0 to Ukraine.

 

[Chapple12345]

Feeling far more confident for this one! Reckon England will win 2-1

[st dan]

Feeling a little nervous for this one. 
England + Major Tournament + Expectation x Complacency = ….. 

[Andre91]

3-0 England. 

[Ayrshire Chris]

England to go all the way, winning the tournament, unbeaten, thus allowing us Scots a meagre crumb of comfort as being the only team to prevent England winning a game 😉!  Best of luck England 🇬🇧

Lasted til 5 for the 1st beer of the day, going to be an emotional one I reckon. Enjoy the ride pop pickers.

Spain v Denmark in the final?
