Virgin Don Posted April 16, 2008 Share Posted April 16, 2008 Portugal to win just glad engarland have to enjoy it on tv like us. Link to comment
vanderark14 Posted April 16, 2008 Author Share Posted April 16, 2008 Portugal to win just glad engarland have to enjoy it on tv like us. we will still have to put up with Ian Wright, Gary Linekar and co. they will just harp on about England even if they are not in it. just try not to tale notice and hope we get some outstanding games.

boaby Posted April 16, 2008 Share Posted April 16, 2008 Czechs for me. Pivo! The land of Staropramen, Budvar, Pilsner Urquell, Gambrinas. Mini Eiffell towers, dumplings, and properly fit women. Bring it on. Link to comment
fatshaft Posted April 16, 2008 Share Posted April 16, 2008 Portugal to win just glad engarland have to enjoy it on tv like us.It's kinda lost an edge because of that though. The whole six month build up to them winning. The continued fantasy as they struggle to progress through a group where they are top seeds, and then the hilarity of their oh-so-near exit in the quarter finals, followed by Ian Wright and Jug Ears faces as they try not to weep on camera as they review the match.

Guest SS RED Posted April 16, 2008 Share Posted April 16, 2008 Havn't picked a team yet but maybe Croatia or Serbia. Link to comment
bland_flabbis Posted April 16, 2008 Share Posted April 16, 2008 I'm going for Croatia. There's a bit of history between Scotland and Croatia if you look for it (Scottish mercenaries fighting for Croatia against Serbia - which is why some Serbians still despise us but love England) and I fell in love with Croatia when they played at Wembley.

I know it was pure torture. I was with my mate in Milton kenyes for concert only big screen for Columbia game 60000 of them celebrating them wining. Thought we were going to get done though Columbia nearly scored we were up screaming for a sec. So glad they not there! Link to comment

Aye, croats much sounder than serbs (who are pretty p1ssed off wi the entire world except russia right now!). Also, to the boy who said he was goin for Serbia in the euro's, good luck. They've as much chance as fvckin Scotland! Link to comment
sheep_shagger Posted April 16, 2008 Share Posted April 16, 2008 I'm thinking Germany for this one. Not overly fussed so long as its decent viewing. Link to comment
OneZanderDiamond Posted April 16, 2008 Share Posted April 16, 2008 I'll be tipping Spain once again. I was actually planning to go over for a game involving Spain. I just want to see Torres do well if I'm honest, very biased view I know. I tip Spain year after year but they always fail.........so here is hoping they can do something this year. Anyone heading over? I think I might head over for a game...... I always support Spain to an extent but I've never fancied them to do it as much as this year. I think they'll finally shed the "nearly men" tag Link to comment
NorthernLights24 Posted April 16, 2008 Share Posted April 16, 2008 I always back Spain if Scotland don't make it. Spain want our support - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IBlePJ1n2LM Link to comment

robbo Posted April 16, 2008 Share Posted April 16, 2008 ill be in Rome for a week so i plan on supporting whomever they are playing. stupid yes, but still bitter. May even just wear my scotland shirt everyday. cheating *******ds...seriously still bitter. Tipping france to do it again though. Link to comment
tutankamun Posted April 16, 2008 Share Posted April 16, 2008 Always support Netherlands if we don't make it. Got some Dutch relatives.... Don't know who will win this one, Portugal must be in with a shout since Ronaldo is a one man goal machine these days. Italy are always there or thereabouts. Tough one to call. Link to comment
tutankamun Posted April 16, 2008 Share Posted April 16, 2008 Here's the fixtures: Euro 2008 Fixtures All on at decent times unlike the world cup in Japan / Korea which is a boost. Link to comment

May even just wear my scotland shirt everyday. cheating *******ds...seriously still bitter. Tipping france to do it again though.Italy were too good in the end, nothing to do with cheating, we simply weren't that good and to be honest i reckon we would have failed if we did get to the finals and then everyone would have been on who ever was in charges back. Portugal for me i think, a very good side like Spain and always fail to deliver when they are hyped up so reckon it will be between those two. Link to comment
Guest SS RED Posted April 16, 2008 Share Posted April 16, 2008 I aways like a bit of Italy aswell. Link to comment
van basten 9 Posted April 16, 2008 Share Posted April 16, 2008 i support the swiss through ancestry and always support italy Link to comment

One of the most open tournaments in ages, as there isn't one stand out team. Might be inclined to go for a Portugal v Germany final. Link to comment
