Yes, my father-in-law kept banging on about independence and how we should leave the EU.

 

So where do we go now

[snowdragon]

apparently there have been noises from Spain that they now want to put their flag on the rock?

[paulette11]

Quite. Ronaldo can't win it on his own.

 

He can win it on his own

I've had more fun watching paint dry !! some of the dross served up today was terrible, one shot on target in 120 minutes is a joke.(well two ) if you count the goal.

[Guest]

no luck for the Irish, both now out. Eng v France next

[Guest]

Italy convincingly beat the spain, surely now second favourites...behind england

 

England now up (rumour has it that eng might lose so Eng can get a good trade agreement with iceland in the 'triangle' )

[Guest]

see, eng 2-1 down already!

England cant even beat Iceland. shame. sign o' times. bye bye Roy.

Rule Britannia, my ars*. Problem has always been that the Premier League is full of foreign players who make these England players perform well for their club sides. When it comes to international competitions, they mostly don't perform very well.

 

Sums up England if you ask me. Full of overly confident people who think that being English is somehow better than other nationalities and they should do well in competitions.

I agree with Ford, sign of the times if we can't even beat Iceland, population 323,000.

[Guest]

, population 323,000.

there must be more than that in Berkshire (ps, yep around 2/3 times more apparently)

[honeybee13]

there must be more than that in Berkshire

 

I haven't counted.

[Guest]

Roy has resigned

 

(sounds familiar, xyz has resigned. sign... )

[maroondevo52]

Rooney was shocking should have been subbed long before he was.

[Consumer dude]

The jokes, England frozen out and we didn't want to be in Europe anyway. Lol..

I was driving back from Bournemouth Sunday and a Massa passed me:madgrin:it then moved over to in front of my car. I noticed the car reg had a D and B in it. I wondered who would have those initials. Some time later I thought haha why didn't I think of an obvious. I wonder if it was. He made good precision passes sad England out.

[Guest]

Who do you think should be up for England manager.

Southgate doesnt want it apparently. maybe Hoddle then imo (though his lack of recent management experience might go against him. hope though its not the likes of Wenger, Klinsman, etc))

Maybe?

[Guest]

Maybe. Hoddle for me. if that doesnt work, then just go managerless and see what the all star players do

 

Wales up now v Belg.

[Consumer dude]

Wasn't hoddle the manager before or is this a different one ?..

This report is from an hour ago - quite a few fans have probably not made the kick off due to Euro train breakdowns and traffic jams in Lille

 

Tonight Wales faces Belgium in an historic Euro 2016 quarter-final but hundreds of fans are delayed after a train became stuck in Eurotunnel on Thursday night.
