I have to admit that I'm feeling a bit more optimistic for Germany after tonight's game (I know it's not over yet). If Germany can beat Italy, neither Spain nor Portugal give me a real worry. Obviously, I could be completely wrong.

I just don't like Spain  

 

(Football)

They fall over a lot.

The travesty of penalties.

I do  

Olé, Olé, Olé  

At least we have a local gadje in the endspiel! Geordie Albert! Toon Army!

Wanted the Spanish to win, better side!  Still remember the Portuganese knocking us out.

(cheating us out actually) I just wanted the Spanish to win 'cos I backed 'em to be playing Germoney in the final.

See the bastards that brought Rangers down - they should be hung, drawn and prosecuted.

 

Murray included.

 

Scottish fitba's finished.

And all those teams voting Rangers out..

 

..hope it bites you right on the arse.

 

Am I a Teddy Bear?

 

No.

Breaking news! Beckham excluded from teamGB. Ridiculous! Yet more end of term fun and it wouldn't have done any harm to pick him.

Good.

 

If ever there was a player lesser than the sum of his parts it's him.

 

I can cross a baw and take free kicks.

 

Aye...but you've no pace, cannae dribble, cannae head and you're one footed.

 

You're basically no Ronaldo.

 

And by common consensus he's a wanker.

The wee man's on now talking systems.

 

Just like that.

Obviously I'm not as common as I thought!

Strachan outta ten?

I'm proper royalty, I love him. 

 

VD

Afternoon cologne1 

 

Hope you're laying off the fags  

Strachan was an appalling manager. 1/10

He's on the radio just now implying 10/10  

 

Not with you but.

Giggsy is playing anyway!

I am.

David should know this is the Olympics... not his testimonial. Nice to see we're actually taking it seriously for once, if he had been chosen they may aswell invite Bobby Charlton whilst their at it.

Bugger!

Hurrah!

 

(soz Joe)

bugger

  ok, I'm getting drunk.

Hummels you are over-rated - bring back Mertesacker!

Balotelli Feck off Germany

Double hurrah! 

 

(soz Col)

Why is everybody against the Germans?

You and Joe aren't, Col 

I'm not anti - I'm pro Italy

Sorry GJ and Col, but whoop, whoop, and an exciting match at last! Balotelli ;-) Let's see what the second half brings, Germany need to seriously up their game

Anything to do with the bods Cos :-)

Might be 

If I hadn't had a saver on Italy qualifying at 7/4 I would have been even more than £30 down! That totally stuffed up my competition. I'll have to have a good think about sunder.

ION the sap might say that the Olympic ideal was all about taking part and that beckham deserved to take part especially after all of his work in bringing it here. The cynic would say it's all about the sponsors and results. It's gone beyond fun.

Keith Andrews has signed on a three year deal. He should be decent enough in the Championship. Obviously Reo-Coker's replacement.

Italia  

Italy for me too, but hoping for an exciting contest. GJ, watched the torch going past HQ....for a nano second....all of the sponsorship buses and pr exercise for the met' took about half an hour!

Yes! Mum was stood by Mr. GC! I'm sure Spain are going to walk this. However the value is with Italy. I've backed them at 6/4 to win the trophy, 13/5 to win in 90 mins, 6/1 to win/win and balotelli anytime at 11/5 and silva at 9/4.
