Euro 2016 - hype, anticipation and general excitement

How does a Frenchman end up being called Kingsley?

TV ref says no pen

yeah well the france goal was a foul

giroud literally bats aside his arms

thought a midfield of pogba/matuidi/kante would boss this much more than they have.

Not like a goalie to moan about being under protected

hmm would've hooked kante before pogba

Will love it if Romania nick this

Payet and pogba have used the ball appallingly

Thought the french goal was a foul, but only on replay.

Boom

So good.

damn son

Claiming assist

Payet you cliche git :D

wow, beauty

Payet you magnificent bastard

off-foot too, eh?

France frantically trying to fuck it up again

Can't be doing with this crying after scoring a goal though.

Youre scottish. How would ye know.

Criying Payet = 🐐

Aubameyang was one of the 4 players from Ligue 1 I was unfamiliar with that really stood out for me
last season. The others being Payet (who LFC should have got for the RWF role that I guess Aspas/Moses are set for) Ochoa and Valbuena.

All I can say is youse lot better play well in this tournament.

If not we'll just blame mccarthy

Result

Castlemilk might just have to come to your rescue once again.

Heh that ones passed me im afraid

Houghton, McCarthy and McGeady (is he there?) are all from Château de Lait.

mcgeady isnae i don't think, but from close by/has family there

Oh right, Wiki has him as a 'Notable Resident' - along with 50 other footballers and 5 other people.

Good info

Just saw Emirates are showing the games live in flight, making my decision to go with Qantas because they have marginally better wine regrettable.

I will miss all the games today but think England should win fairly comfortably. Slovakia should also be too strong for Wales.

How in the hell did West Ham manage to sign Payet

will just say that my current predictions for today don't match either of SV's

so, Albania - Switzerland. a drubbing?

i have somewhat pessimistically opted for 1-0 Switzerland on the BBC predictor thing. form book suggests that they've been rubbish this year, they squeaked past Moldova last week with a late winner(2-1).

Albania i know nothing about except that during qualification they only conceded more than one goal on one occasion (0-2 defeat to Serbia), which suggests that they are at least organised.
3rd place qualification thing means that weaker teams and boring bastards who are keen to progress might just shut up shop and pray for a point.

this is my reasoning, though i hope i'm dead wrong and Shaqiri tears the Albanian defence to pieces

yeah i don't trust the qualifying/pre-tournament form too much when it comes to the pressures, stupidity and dumb luck of tournament play. feel like Switzerland are flat track bullies too.

this is fun, crowd are making a nice racket

Good call, NV.

uh oh, could indeed be a drubbing

(xp)

Plenty of time! But obv Albania 's will to keep it tight is gonna be tested now

Otoh Romania last night kept good shape without being negative. Albania look made in a similar mould - they're not gonna sit in their own half

Lol rooney

Stupid twat.

ah you cunt i was on for the 1-0 as well

oooh Embolo, he's the boy on the latest FM, i love seeing these guys in real life

Switzerland's lack of commitment to matching my Predictor score here has been a disgrace

I predicted a 1-1, and tbh Switzerland would deserve that

Ohhhh you fool!
