I think the European Soccer/Football Championship deserves its own thread.

So, who's going to win this thing in Poland/Ukraine? Spain? Germany? The Netherlands? Portugal? Or even Croatia? Surely not England? Italy? Russia as the dark horse?

Have at it!

[scotty]

Spain, Holland or Germany will win it.

Croatia, they have some very good players. They can do well. Ireland are my dark horses.

[vlad]

Germany! At least in finals! Spain is really strong... England never seems to do it well.

I liked how England played in the most recent World cup....3 lions indeed.

^^ aren't you Malaysian or something?

Scotland FTW!!!!!

Oh wait..............

[LewEngBridewell]

It's championships like these that are the only times I really watch football.

[myownalias]

England to scrape through to the quarter finals, get knocked out by Germany on penalties, Germany Vs Spain in the final, Spain win after extra time!

There we go, it's all sorted, no need to watch now!

Yep, why?

Yep, why?

Cause it's therefore a bit bloody rich that you should be trying to take the piss out of England

Anyone fancy some fantasy football action on this? Similar to the F1, you get a budget and pick a team...

Oh don't get me wrong...Malaysian football will never get to World cup level. The interest here is more on badminton and squash. Added to that, I'm not much of a patriot...all I hold is the passport, my ancestors do not originate from these lands.

And I'd piss on whoever I think deserves to be pissed on. Every World Cup, England is talked about like Demi Gods on the brink of winning it, only to end up failing miserably. 99% the fault of the press of course, but it doesn't help the cause of the team. I don't think you were extremely proud of their play in the last tournament were you? If they were very close to winning it and I dissed them, you then have a case.

'merica's gon win, y'all!!

[McLaren]

I think the germans might win it.That young team is starting to come of age.I think the spanish might suffer with burn out,might be wrong but there you go.As for England probably won't get out of the group

^^^ What he said. The press build them up and build them up, then they bleat on and on and on about 1966, and about how football is coming home. And what happens - they play as if the match is getting in the way of them topping up their summer tan!
