Some football to be played today.  Would like to pick Spain, but they're flirting with becoming a charity match team. 

 

Probably more interested in seeing how they play than anyone else.

 

Oh good... Alejandro Moreno is doing commentary.


Sofa day due to the tonsillitis so very happy with the games on offer today.

 

 

Don't let it be said that we never let one slide on you :lol:

Was out watching with the RVA German folk. Mixture of Germany and Bundasliga jerseys. Why are Germany and Ukraine clashing? I was more wondering if Ukraine and Russia fans would clash.

Ukraine will fight anyone. Hell, two of their own team mates despise each other and apparently won't pass to each other on the pitch because of a club team fight.

Idiotic socialists want to ban alcohol, turns out one of the main sposor of this tournament is Carlsberg, how ironic !

10 hooligans facing immediate trial, no Russian among them, how ironic !

We've got more info about the Russian hooligans, who appeared to be well trained in martial arts, boxing and MMA. Those dudes even publicly talked about their intentions on social networks weeks before the event

The French usually are pretty hard ass about their internal security, given their history.

 

 

Wish i can find another stream, the ESPN commentary team driving me crazy.

Not at all, we've got very competent police and gendarmerie, the problem is the politicians who don't give them the proper orders.

The popular image is policemen usually lined up and standing in front of troublemakers protecting themselves from rocks, crowbars, etc.., and letting them do what they want. The lousy government doen't want to really let them kick asses.

If one of them is retaliating after being assaulted he'll face immediate prosecution. I've got a buddy in the gendarmerie he could tell you many stories like that.

 

Got this stream http://neofeed.tv/55662/1/Watch-Spain-vs-Czech-Republic/

 

Edit: I bet the Russian hooligans were sent by Vladimir to avenge the cancellation of the frigate deal :P

I'd forgotten how easy it was to get distracted watching Spain. All looks very nice, but think I've watched about 15 minutes of that half.

Was eluding to that at the weekend. They are in France to make some noise.

Dullest game of the euros so far. Spain's passing looks nice on the stat sheet but means nothing when the majority of passes are either backwards or from one side line to another when there's no pressure on the ball. On the plus the goal means I can fit in a couple of games of nba 2k.

Ibra I think is the player that over the years has blown me away more than any other player. There are better players, but I remember the first time watching him play and just being amazed at how big he is combined with how quick and agile his feet are. He can do some amazing stuff, love watching him play.

Pulling for the Irish here. Normally unheard of with me when Ibra is on the pitch. But he's a Manc now, and that changes everything.

Was going to be Sweden all the way due my huge man crush on Ibra and Ireland finishing above us in the group but Ireland have an ex motherwell player in goals so will be supporting Eire.

I've been calling it for two years now... as SOON as that new Stadium is ready for DC United in Southeast, he'll be the premier signing.  And he'll be the right age for MLS.

Ibra was my favorite player never to wear red.  I'm having trouble with it myself :lol:

A little "Fields of Athenry" from the BIG


That and the fact we have a strong Irish heritage which is reason enough.

 

RIGHT lil' bro'?  :angry:.

 

Hail. 

 

You're the one who had me ignore that side of the family for all but a couple of weeks throughout the year.


Normally involved us getting presents.
