    On that premise, I thought of copying and reposting my Shakira lyrics offering as it didn't receive any reactions ;lol

    I was brought up on the basis of "If you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all", but if you insist............. ;wink

    I missed the 2 games yesterday due to being in Hyde park consuming alcohol with some chums and a bunch of bands. So glad we lost to Belgium otherwise I would have missed today’s festivities.

    GNev once again making himself look silly just so he feels he is useful. ;doh

    He really is becoming rather annoying. For such an experienced player at the top level, he don’t half talk some shoemakers.
  • chicagohammerchicagohammer
    I have not heard him, but I would probably still swap him out for any one of the numpties we get over here.
  • HammerwombatHammerwombat
    I will trade you one GNev and a Ghoddle for an Atownshend.
    ;hmm
    Actually, tonight I will stick with a SBilic and put up with the pro twonks.

    Blimey. What a chance!

    How did that stay out. When I first saw it, I thought it was in the back of the net.

    Can't hurt our chances that Russia-Croatia is going to extra time. 30 more minutes for injuries, suspensions and general tiredness.

    No, he didn’t. He’s paid to give his opinion not to agree with everyone.

    I have enjoyed Ally McCoist on ITV this evening.

    Looks increasingly like penalties. Both teams had pens in the previous rounds so their players will have played at least an hour more than the English players. And that is not counting the Belgium game where we rested a number of players.
  • MIAHammerMIAHammer
    Come on Russia!
  • chicagohammerchicagohammer
    An exciting finish to the game, great to watch when you are relatively neutral, penalties now, not really to worried who wins.

    I lean towards Russia, as hosts as they have put on a terrific tournament

    He probably could have qualified to play for England.

    Some shocking penalties
  • MIAHammerMIAHammer
    Russia didn’t expect to get to penalties and probably didn’t practice taking them,
  • chicagohammerchicagohammer
    Croatia should not hold any fear for us - the games afoot follow thy spirit - we can do this
  • MrsGreyMrsGrey
    Only 2 of the Russians have ever taken pens, apparently.

    Other than Lee Dixon and GNev he’s ITVs best co-coms imho. But across both channels the level of commentary has been appalling were as the studio stuff has been quite good.

    I enjoyed Martin Keown saying that anyone reading a book should get a life. ;lol
  • SuzanneClaretSuzanneClaret
    He’s such a twonk.... ;doh
  • BazshuayiBazshuayi
    I like it when they pair up Dixon and Le Saux on NBC. We dont get GNev in USA. He's too busy reciprocating Suz's crush on him I guess ;puzzled
  • grey_til_I_dyegrey_til_I_dye
    Baz ;ok

    Think Dixon & Le Saux are two of the best co-comm pundits.

    I may be in a minority here, but I cannot stand those sickly and nauseating interviews given by Gabby Logan. Of all the significant challenges the England squad face in progressing through the tournament, the prospect of having to front up to her must be chief amongst them.

    She came up with one pointless line in the post match interview with Southgate yesterday which was met by a quality response from him where he basically said he had no idea what she was going on about ;lol
  • MrsGreyMrsGrey
    I don't mind them too much. They're a bit fawning - but that seems par for the course in all coverage atm.

    A big ;clap to Southgate
    Is own man
    Funny all the Hazbeens have soooo much to say, if they was any good they would of won the World Cup, what do they know?
    Nothing, none of them been has in this boat.
    ;cheers mr Southgate
  • HammerwombatHammerwombat
    I freely admit, I had serious doubts about Gareth Southgate as England manager, I was firmly in the Allardyce should not have been sacked camp. But on reflection, big Sam would have played a 442 against Sweden, and honestly under his guidance I doubt we would have progressed this far.

    Bilic talks a lot of nonsense on ITV. Pretty much everything he said against Croatia, the opposite happened.
