Euro 2016 - France

[aRdja]

Terrible kit by Nike.

[aRdja]

All the teams with Nike have the exact same design. The Dutch aren't in the competition but their new kit is orange shirt and shorts with purple socks!

 

 

 

Like this US one (allegedly)?

 

[aRdja]

Germany looks nice, but not quite the same without the red and orange.

Never beat this

lol... not quite my fav. I prefer the understated beauty of this;

 

[aRdja]

Boss player too.

[aRdja]

I would wear this one to a rave;

Another shitty international break to deal with for the next 2 weeks, I'm Irish but watching them doesn't do it for me.I half watch the England match because everyone talks about it but their shite, since Toshack managed Wales I watch them mainly during the international break.

 

I like an underdog and they play football the right way, big credit must go to Toshack for giving them a footballing philosophy and for taking a long term view.Hes the man responsible for their success imo, Coleman has benefited from the work Toshack done but has took them a bit backwards by playing defensively.

 

Hopefully the home nations do well in the euros but the winner will be either France or Germany imo.

You've forgotten Gary Speed then.

Looking forward to it, should be good. We're going for a few nights. Don't really care for England (especially with that manager and that captain). Would quite like Northern Ireland to do well.

 

Disagree with the bigger tournament though. The beauty of the Euros was it's 16 team format. But that's football, full of money grabbing c**ts.

[G Richards]

Exactly. More teams, more games, more money. I'd rather it was the best 16, 4 groups of 4, everyone gets three good games then 8 go through and its knockout to the final.

 

Everyone wants the money...

England v Wales  June 16th  

Can hardly wait . Well I can actually and a quick look at the diary reveals I am going on holiday that day and will miss the game. Very happy with that 

[Paulie Dangerously]

Germany looks nice, but not quite the same without swastika.

How did you go about getting tickets mate?

[RedKnight]

How did you go about getting tickets mate?

 

All tickets were issued through each country's FA, who used their own criteria. In Wales' case it was based on previous games attended.

[johnsusername]

Through the UEFA tickets website. You have to put in your passport details and you get put into a draw.

 

They're still available through the resale site.

You've forgotten Gary Speed then.

I've always had big respect for Gary Speed but I didn't see much of Wales when he was manager as I didn't have sky at that time and I don't think he managed them long enough to make a big impact.

 

I'm surprised we don't hear much praise for what Toshack done and I think the other home nations could learn from what he did, fuck off the big names who can't play the European style of football and get the youngsters playing that way even if it hurts their qualification chances.Id support Ireland more if they took that approach instead of playing shit football with shit players just to qualify and get knocked out.

[Section_31]

I'm supporting Wales. The Manics are doing their euro song too. Quality.

You do realise the Welsh were absolutely shite for years under Toshack don't you? 

[G Richards]

I'm a bit concerned about the possibility of terrorist attacks. Hopefully everyone comes home safely and enjoys a good tournament. 

[dennis tooth]

Its all happening

[dennis tooth]

You've forgotten Gary Speed then.

No in his world rodgers was manager when wales were doing well not gary speed but they failed to qualify then because they didnt have anyone partnering balotelli up front from what i gather.

[Gym Beglin]

It's not even a possibility, it's nailed on to happen.

 

I'm concerned at groups of fans getting pissed and edgy about it, and hammering any 'terrorist-looking' people around the stadium as the media ramps the threat up.

 

I think France will win it easy, they'll be the only ones who want to be there. Ally that to a squad with Lloris, Varane, Sakho, Matuidi, Pogba, Payet, Kante, Kondogbia, Benzema, Lacazette, Griezmann, Giroud, that's some list of players, and then there's impact players like Kingsley Coman, Anthony Martial, and Nabil Fekir if he gets fit in time.

 

Germany v France final.

Is hodgson even gonna take vardy?

Is hodgson even gonna take vardy?

Hope so.

 

Hearing him trying to pronounce his name will bring some light relief to his dismal interviews,
