A few barbecues scuppered here in Cheltenham - it's been absolutely pissing down for the last 3 hours!

Love Cheltenham, even when its pissing down there. Enjoy the BBQ if there is one left. Here last few weeks always more than 30 degrees with no rain (after a really cold spring), but would always prefer Cheltenham instead. Had many great days there, even watched Cheltenham against Forest Green - one of the most enjoyable places I have been to. And also I miss those great pubs there, Brewdog is a bit expensive in Austria, you could get 3 bottles Austrian beer for one bottle Brewdog but as England wins the Euros it should be worth it.

Southgate gone defensive. Could be yawntastic.

Australian media reporting carnage outside the gates. Mobs of people attempting to storm in.

They're sore losers, but they're sore winners as well. I'm expecting violence & destruction regardless of the score, so we might as well win.

Wouldn't want to own an Italian restaurant tonight!

1-1 after 90 minutes, England 2-1 or 3-1 after extra time.

England have more options on the bench, so you could be right.

But I'm going 5-0 Italy

So, a close one.

For England’s sake hope there's no tight ref decisions.  The Italians have VAR, Vatican assisted referee. 😉

Yeah, a tense thrashing, the best kind.

Yeah, you might be right with extra time. A question on our tv the Austrian correspondent asked if pubs have their closing time with extra time, but she (living in London) believes not. Anyway I hope that it will not get to extra time because a) I will be too drunk then and b) it will be midnight here and i have to work tomorrow.

Luck is with England. This is their year. It is written.

Oh god, sweet Caroline. Might switch over for the mixed doubles.

There’s nobody there … apart from the umpire and players … even the line judges have vanished to the VAR room 

[steviewevie]

England just need to win this, get this 30 years of hurt or however long it is thing over with for fucks sake. 

1-0 England. Sterling 70mins
