Re: Euro 2016 thread

Yeah I'm pretty sure the FAW will organise something like that for us

I'm just hoping we can now build on the unexpected success for Russia and keep the momentum going.

Re: Euro 2016 thread

On the night Portugal were the better team but to me the format of the competition has been a joke. Portugal came 3rd in the group with 3 draws and overall didnt deserve to be where they were.

Re: Euro 2016 thread

The format is not a joke.

Were they a bit lucky to get past the groups, possibly, but they are unbeaten, and have got past three knockout rounds (and played well last night).
As much as I dislike Ronaldo, I believe they deserve their place.

Re: Euro 2016 thread

Amazing display from the French team good honest play no dirty tactics. It's ashame to see Germany go out of the Euros as they were my second team. I have many many friends in Germany.

Looking forward to a great final.

Everyone must have some friends somewhere.

Can't see the final being a classic, Portugal are very ordinary apart from CR7. Watching Germany tonight was 'almost' like watching England, they never looked like scoring.

I disagree, Germany tried,'England didn't, watching Germany tonight was like watching Wales last night.. Tried hard but clueless and out of ideas.

Yes at the moment there are certainly no great international teams out there that's for sure as France are alright but they are nothing special and Portugal as you say are very ordinary apart from Ronny.

Re: Euro 2016 thread

Nail and head. Said this a few times myself too. None of the big teams have stood out. Whilst fringe like Belgium have fallen apart.

I think it's strange that they're having a parade and huge celebration. The only good result they had was against Belgium. They beat an awful Russian team and Slovakia and Northern Ireland who you would expect them to beat. Is it really something to celebrate so much? Its as if they're celebrating because they did better than England.

England had an open top bus after italia 90 iirc, I thought it rediculous then and Wales probably should've learnt from our silliness, a nice civic reception with the dignitaries would have sufficed imo as long as everyone that wanted to could've seen them.

Are you serious?!

We've been written off for almost 60 years, been constantly told we're a small and insignificant footballing nation but came within 2 games of winning a major international tournament.

THAT is worth any such country celebrating.
