Have to disagree re EC vs WC.

As a general rule I much prefer the Euros for the football, though there have been poor tournaments.

Since the WC expanded its a much greater spectacle and has much more of a buzz factor about it, but there is a lot of mediocre football and dead rubbers from the filler teams, and let's face it, by the time it finishes the major feeling (apart from elation when Spain wins) is one o f relief that it's finally over!!!


Anyways, so far so good on this one. Some cracking games I the group stages and a good upset already!

I clicked on it without any problems but you may be right (I'm not too tech savvy) so here's the youtube link to the same thing - bizarre but compelling



tho I was more taken with their response to the Tam Cowan's "joke" about them in the Daily Record-

Not sure what that could be as I clicked on it and it played normally. I took it from a post on facebook. Unless your post has a double meaning beyond my understanding.

Might be able to make a later Ireland game SJ (maybe the semis eh?). Am just back from a boys golf trip so its dinner with the missus tonight, with one eye on the match. Enjoy.


Looking forward to the much anticipated titanic struggle between Modric and Keith Andrews in midfield :'(

Rather disappointing for Ireland. Croatia deserved the win but there was possibly a bit of good fortune to all three of their goals. So perhaps it was an opportunity missed for Ireland and I can't quite see them getting out of the group. Possibly the draw between Spain Italy may help in the end. Who knows.

Irelands game has that dogged feel to it that you get with a lot of Scotland games. Some lucky goals but the Croatians were the classier side. I can see the Irish getting a draw with Italy or Spain - like the Scot's they can raise their game for the big boys.


England tonight - a reminder that Scotland beat France twice (home and away) in the Euro 2008 qualifiers. If we can do it against the odds you'll find it a walk over right?

    • What was he doing on the stage at Glastonbury? Or on the stage at the other concert in Finsbury Park? Grinning like a Cheshire cat whilst pissed and stoned 20 somethings on the promise of free internet sung-- Oh Jeremy Corbyn---  What were his policies for Northern mining towns with no jobs or infrastructure? Free Internet and university places for youngsters. What were his other manifesto pledges? Why all the ambiguity over Brexit?  I didn't like Thatcher, Blair or May or Tony but I respected them as politicians because they stood by what they believed in. I respect all politicians across the board that stick to their principles. Corbyn didn't and its why he got  annihilated at the polls. A socialist, anti imperialist and anti capitalist that said he voted for an imperialist and pro capitalist cabal. He refused to say how he'd vote over and over again until the last knockings. He did so to appease the Islington elite and middle class students he was courting. The same people that were screaming that Brexit was racist. At the same time the EU were holding black and Asian immigrants in refugee camps overseas but not a word on that! Corbyn created and courted a student union protest movement that screamed at and shouted down anyone not on the left . They claimed Starmer and the centre right of labour were tories. He didn't get elected  because he, his movement and policies were unelectable, twice. He turned out not to have the convictions of his politics and died on his own sword.    Reform won't win an election. All the idiots that voted for them to keep out Labour actually enabled Labour. They'll be back voting tory next time.    Farage wouldn't be able to make his millions if he was in power. He's a very devious shyster but I very much doubt he'd actually want the responsibility that governance requires.
    • The purge of hard left members that were part of Corbyn's, Mcdonnel's and Lansmans momentum that purged the party of right wing and centrist members. That's politics. It's what Blair did to win, its what Starmer had to do to win. This country doesn't vote in extreme left or right governments. That's partly why Corbyn lost  We're pretty much a centrist bunch.  It doesn't make it false either. It's an opinion based on the voting patterns, demography and statistics. Can you explain then why former mining constituencies that despise the tories voted for them or abstained rather than vote for Corbyns Labour?  What is the truth then? But he never got elected!!! Why? He should have been binned off there and then. Why he was allowed to hang about is an outrage. I hold him party responsible for the shit show that we've had to endure since. 
    • Depends on what the Barista says doesnt it? There was no physical confrontation with the driver, OP thinks she is being targetted when she isnt. These guys work min wage under strict schedules so give them a break unless they damage your stuff
