Still 1-0

Brilliant... and needed.

I was half-watching the Poland game, but wasn't able to post.
Been looking forward to this match for days, but for reasons I won't bore you with I may not be able to post much.
No worries Eugene - hope the game lives up to expectations. 
Decent strike.
My Bruv is in back in Bellyfast and they're weren't hopeful of getting this far. The big screen wasn't even booked - they had to book an emergency venue for today! 
Phew!
I honestly have no idea who to support but since Roger is an FM and Mrs Jer just applied for her Irish passport, let's go with the greens.

I too sided with the greens.
I predict 0-0 at half time.
Some tactical thinking required during the half time cuppa.

Batman made a lot of that challenge.

Somehow I thought that might be lurking in the background...

Maybe not now...
That is cruel.
Knew it... Wales have been getting better as the match goes on
Sh*t or bust now - gotta go for it.

Very true: it's taken a while, but they've increasingly looked dangerous.
Bale's been dominating things too: although not officially on the score sheet yet...
I'd be happy with Wales winning they're a better team. It would be great to see more of Gareth Bale in the tournament too.
I've been following ROI since Big Jack's days and I lived in Dublin so long they feel more like my team. Tomorow is another day.

Bale really is brilliant I'm glad for him... the Real Madrid fans were horrible to him for ages. Now he's in front of his real fans !
Oops! I seem to have galvanized Wales into action - Sorry!

Ah yes, France v ROI tomorrow: that's going to be a big one!
Must remember to get some chores done early so I've got the afternoon free. 
Ahh shame, but a fair result. Well done Wales 
Can see them going much further.
