Euros 2016
-
<p>at least their rugby team won</p>

Haaaaaaahaaaaaaahhaaaaaaaaa!<br><br>
After the RWC I accused the team of being a bunch of overhyped, choking cockwombles. It gives me great pleasure to pass that crown on to a more truly deserving team. Even with England's football's track record in fucking things up, this performance was truly outstanding. Well done guys. -
Iceland showing that being outside the EU makes you awesome. Setting the example.

<p>Just flicked off the two yearly text to my brother in law (who's from Hull) commiserating him on another exit from a major football tournament.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>His response: "I will never watch England play again."</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Sport is raw emotion.</p> -

Speechless.</p></blockquote>

His praise of the team's efforts was positively Borthwickian. I almost thought they'd won. -

Much worse. -

It reeked of, oh well I'll pick up my cheque anyway, so I'll just say what the players want to hear and fuck off.<br><br>
He was out thought and out manoeuvred by a part time dentist, with very limited players at his his disposal. -

I thought that England had plumbed the depths when we failed to qualify for 74 world cup, but it seems they will always find a new way to screw up, year after year after year.<br>

<p>To be fair, back in 73 when England lost to Poland it really was one of those days - England could have had 5 that night. Much different to having no idea at all against Iceland.</p> -
I've been a fan of Spain in the tikka takka years (tikka takka is great if by a team you're supporting, but probably painful if you don't support them). But, I am glad to see that alternative kit no more. Disgraceful.<br><br>
What is it with kits the last 10 years? Do UEFA and FIFA have a policy now that even the shorts can't clash? So many times teams unnecessarily wearing alt kits, or their kits butchered by moving away from a traditional shit/shirt combo. Ruins the legacy.
