The longer this goes on the more I want Albania to do it

yeah this has not been good at all. i really was very excited for the possibilities at kick-off but it's all been p. incoherent from the French.
whole competition basically being wrecked by this "some of the 3rd place teams (tho not all of them) will qualify" rule bcuz i can never work out when rooting for the underdog exactly how important it is that they win this particular game

seems there is greater parity between the supposedly shit teams and the "favourites" thus far, obviously this is a familiar narrative at this point except at the absolute highest Champs League sf level - is it just a case of the 4 or 5 strongest teams having ridiculously blunted attacks or is this one of the defining features of modern futbol?

Albania seem mentally fatigued more than anything, I'll be amazed (and delighted) if they can withstand 10 more mins of this

Trying to imagine the crowd response if England put this performance as a host nation

Windsor, you still in Paphos btw? We are now, watching this at our flat but the English pub district is kind of amazing/horrifying and we were walking thru it like twenty minutes ago

Oh bollocks
At least we know they're a bit shit now tho

imo if you pull this shit twice in a row you forfeit the right to be seen as moral tournament winners, should that come to pass

Imago - walk further down past the ruins to the harbour, way nicer down there.
Bar Street was fucking horrific.

The game itself does not merit further comment.

Can't wait for the deluge of THATS HOW YOU CLOSE A GAME OUT on the Charlton forums, at least until England cunt Wales tomorrow

And obv Matt, we had no intention of doing otherwise. I mean, we're going to spend three days in Beckham Bar, yes

Shame that Linekers burnt down
Hey, you might have been on your first night there for all I knew.

Gonna respectfully (at first) suggest a separate thread for fantasy football nonsense, at least until you all chase me out with pitchforks

What are the chances of West Ham selling Payet for £50m during the tournament and Bilic finding out live on air?
― Matt DC, Wednesday, 15 June 2016 21:18 (eight years ago) link
I've had s similar thought but if we're gonna start critiquing each others content well

I'm doing important sociological work on this indulgent holiday

Keep getting thrown by kick-offs being taken backwards. Looks so wrong.
Thought Coman was okay last night, one lovely turn and set up a couple of chances for Giroud.

Shame I won't be able to see this due to work, was looking forward to it. Prediction: 2-2.

Really pretty nervous about this game now. England unchanged from the Russia match, Hodgson is such a goof
― Windsor Davies, Thursday, 16 June 2016 12:29 (eight years ago) link
have gone 2-1 England but Hodgson starting the same team inclines me a little more towards Wales

Nervous too and have a horrible feeling England will win fairly comfortably

wayne rooney is on the pitch to be in alli's ear according to martin keown, finally an explanation.

robbie savage AND martin keown.

surprised that sterling missed a sitter there.
not sure wing backs are the best look vs england's formation/personnel.

got the Cypriot commentary on today, such a nice change
fucking Sterling man, get this little bottlejob OFF the fuckin pitch. what exactly about his job could Jamie Vardy not do better? i get that it's not maximising Vardy's usefulness sticking him out wide but who gaf really

options to follow games from online are binary between no detail and way too much. if someone here can do a quick update of what has happened say every 15 mins that would be terrific, ty
― Roberto Spiralli, Thursday, 16 June 2016 13:29 (eight years ago) link
30 mins in. england marginally on top, robson-kanu runnning channels quite well, bale anonymous. 2 chances for england, cross from lallana that sterling put over from 6 yards, header from cahill with back to goal from 7 yards straight at keeper.

ooh handball from wales should maybe be a penalty for england there

wales giving away a lot of free kicks
wayne rooney's appearance displeases me
