Oh dear.... I've run out of beers and it's a penalty shoot-out.

If we win this it would be an utter travesty!!

Bye.

Really ! Why ? They played the same 90 mins as Italy ,then the extra time.
Its just the way they played ! No ? Italy still could not beat them until penaltys.
I dont see what you England supporters have to moan about your team.
They played badly but stayed in the game. Well done England but tuff tits on penaltys.

To win you must play and they didn't.
Been very lucky and shouldn'tve got this far.

Italy's passing was the best i have ever seen but there finishing was shocking.
Will cheer them against the Germans.

So, I can lock this thread now then?

I though Italy would win, but with all the chances they messed up I actually hoped England would put them out of their misery. In the end I couldn't really care anymore. As if I ever cared about soccer.

Anyways, what with all the hair on those Italian faces?

Hair....mmm best I don't comment on that.
Please Lock this Neil before someone else does

Look at it this way, John - you've got a better hairstyle than that Bandonelli (sp?) chap...

Having been in Italy when they won the World Cup, it would be nice to be there if they won the Euros - it was a fun experience.

We lost to the better side. Nothing more, nothing less.

Expect Italy to be horsewhipped by Germany in the semis over 90 minutes similarly.

Now the fussball is over, I can look forward to a day out watching Sussex playing at the 20-20 finals day

We'll see. Spain or Croatia didn't overrun us, both better teams than England faced.

I didn't realise you were another Italian Ross

It's not Ross, it's Rossini

So, is anyone going to watch the Porch-a-geese against the Spaniardos tonight?


My money is on the geese.......so that's them gubbed then!

Have we won this yet?

I'll watch it in HD just to annoy you if you want?

Spain need to stop faffing about with this 'no out and out striker' nonsense. My money is on Germany winning anyway. My new affiliation with Audi means I can support them right?

Yes, it's because our two daily drivers are VW-based cars that we're allowed to support them, that and the fact that every time Klosa (?sp) gets the ball or a mention, we start singing "Move closer" by Phylis Nelson, remember that oldie? Actually maybe she should have taken one of the English penalties?

Can't offer anything on the football, but I remember that Phyllis Nelson song - and that I could fully understand why the person she was singing to was trying to edge away <shudder>

Yup, totally agree Mark, she looked like a bulldog chewing a wasp!

As a VW driver, born in Munster W Germany, I will obviously be supporting my national team.

Not that I feel any affiliation to the Fatherland when it comes to F1.

From a song close to that time.... "She's electrifying!"

Mrs stan, with a tan

Forza Italia!

Well she's wearing Mrs Stan's "Sunday" set of dentures!

Least it makes England's performance look quite good now.

Ross

Is there anywhere that you can buy Italian flags to fly from a Coupe on Sunday?

Hope Marco doesn't get arrested tonight in Bedford.... he'd had a few sherberts at 9.30

I wanted a few jars tonight but bad knee plus meds plus physio in morning equals bad idea.

Marco20VT shared a few politically incorrect texts earlier; Bedford will be rocking!
