Natural exuberance to, no doubt, be replaced by being pissed off when my 'boys' become 'nine time losers'!?!?!
Italy is the value bet tonight lads - Germany have never beaten Italy in the finals of a major competition - the 8 matches having ended in 4 draws and 4 Italian victories. This is a psychological thing, basically the Germans love Italy and the Italians (most of them living south of Frankfurt go there on holiday every year, and did you notice how pally Hitler got with Mussolini?) and cannot therefore play with their ruthless German efficiency. Joking aside, the Italians look a serious outfit and I think they will just edge it.
Whatever was Pelle thinking of there . Italy played for pens during ET and lost. Awful way to go out but if you don't try to win during open play you can't rue your luck.
Iceland have not conceded a goal in open play and along with the mighty Wales are the only teams to have scored in every game -topped their qualifying group by doing the double over Holland-ignore them at your peril 8/1 tonight
I see where your coming from rudebwoy but they are facing a team with far more technical ability here in France than what they've faced. That Dutch side is one of their worst for decades too. Iceland have been fantastic and a breath of fresh air but the road comes to an end tonight. I don't think they have anything barring that long throw to upset France if the French come out guns blazing.
Of course the French may do that but the odds are wrong in my opinion -they have more than a long throw as well - any way Wales are destined to win the thing! !!!!
I see a lot of you were on 1-1 last night, you jammy ****ers! How the Germans failed to win in 90 minutes is a mystery to me.
Just up after day/night/morning out with relatives. Auld Reekie has bars for 'youngsters' which stay open until 05.00!
Would it not be more sporting to wait until after the France v Iceland game before making a score prediction for the semi-final? As neither my striker nor my midfielder are still in the competition and I had the hosts as losing Finalist, I may need a miracle to win this competition. Was in Glesga a few years ago and there was a nightclub/bar across the street from my hotel and they were still going there at 3:30 in the morning. I guess the 24 hour opening laws had a different impact north of the border.
Oh, most definitely QM, but as you now can see, it didn't take Mystic Meg to know the ressie. I had 4-0 at least to France chalked in. Iceland wouldn't beat the French if they played them 50 times in a row mate. They are terrible. Compared to France that is. To the English side, well, that's another ball game.
