England are the comedic inclusion, there to lift everyone’s spirits seeing another crash and burn.

Baddies have to have some teeth for cinematic effect.

But Uruguay is playing in the Copa America, not in the Euro.

Greece in 2004 - kind of likeable baddies?

Just wrote in another thread that I loved it when they won, despite their more primitive tactics. You have to use a strategy that works with the limited players you have; and when that beats ball magicians, then power to you. Magical when such underdogs go through an entire tournament and even manage to win ! Essence of football and why it is such a beautiful game (that the best team does not always win that is).

Wait… Benzema paid to have sex with an underaged girl? Why do I not remember this story?

Him and Ribery flew in a 17 year old prostitute on a private plane, if I remember correctly. This is many years ago, so I may remember incorrectly.

France against Germany, who can an Englishman support … :stuck_out_tongue:

Yeah, I’ve commenting upon the blackmail before. Wasn’t sure if I remembered the sex scandal entirely correct though.

Although the club is much more imprtant to me I will of course support our national team tonight - its far too tempting to rub it under my french colleagues noses for the rest of the tournament…

I have Jon Champion on the call here in the States, one of my favorites.

Looking forward to a cracking affair.

Well tonight, I will be supporting Germany, because of our Manager, he is Germany’s greatest export and I have a soft spot for Jogey Löw too, he looks so cool, apart from his personal hygiene practices.

Clive Tyldsley has gone into full arse licking mode, with his constant praise for Germany and France.

Match is only 5 minutes old and Germany cut France open 3 times but the passes haven’t been great.

Maybe it’s mistaken identity, but I wonder if this is the ref loves himself a bit too much and love to be on centre stage with lots of whistles and cards?
