Dermot , you can make transfers now , I’ve already made 3 and they start in the 2nd game of the group stage.
I think France will win tonight , and Italy , the dutch look very shakey at the back and they’ve got lots of injuries.

^As an accumulator I had Germany and Croatia to win yesterday and France to win tonight with Italy and Holland being a draw, so I hope you’re wrong :-)
Right, I’ll have a look at these transfers now then…

You never know with the Dutch they could pull something out of the bag , they have got alot of attacking talent. And they are being too overlooked in my opinion on there day they could end up beating anyone.

I dunno. I had a little chuckle when the now obligatory Dutch in-fighting happened again. This time it’s Schneider and Van Persie. Although Ruud van Horseface is behaving himself so far, surprisingly.
I have a feeling they’ll be on an early flight (train?) home. And France. I have a sneaky feeling for Romania to shock everyone and knock two of the big boys out.

Stranger things have happened. I guess we’ll find out what Romania are gonna be like in a short while.
I’ve got money on italy and france to win the tournament so I guess i’m hoping for a good start from both. I’m leaning towards the italians though. :)

I got a replica Italy home top in Dublin on Saturday to get me in tournament mood… always had a slight leaning towards the Italians as well.
Made 2 transfers there, they don’t cost any points do they?

No don’t think so , which is nice.
Well that was the most boring game I have ever watched , and I’m a Liverpool fan. France playing two defencive midfilders , even in the last 10 minutes. They looked too scared to try and win , and well Romania have got a draw against the french they’re happy. I still won’t right off france completley yet , Hopefully Italy will do the business later.

WOW well I wasn’t quite expecting that. Holland were great , the two counter attack goals were brilliant. I even thought Italy played quite well , didn’t really deserve to lose 3-0 but can’t take anything away from the dutch they were fantastic.
What a comparisson from the France game to this one , one of the worst games i’ve ever watched to one of the best.
I’d still like to see Italy go through from the group , they should beat Romania next. And now I hope Holland stuff France.
Looking forward to seeing Spain tommorow, hope they play good attacking football like the dutch.

Well Spain looked good , comfortable win and they didn’t play to there best I don’t think. Sweeden deserved there win , Greece were woefull.
So for Spain and Holland have played the best , I think Portugal and Germany will improve as the tournament goes on.
Btw has anyone used a wild card yet ? Can anyone give me any info on how it works please ? Cheers

As far as the fantasy football goes the third group games have gone pretty shitty with the majority of us with players who’s teams have already qualified like Portugal , Holland and Spain.
The quaters if unlimited transfers and 10 million extra so we’ll probably have near enough the majority of the same players , guess its gonna come down to who picks the right captain.

I have a feeling it’ll go to extra time. My expenses didn’t come through this month (admin error) which has prevented me from throwing too much money away on this tournament. The only remaining bet I still have a chance of coming through is Klose to be top scorer (he’d need to score at least 2 tonight for that to realistic though).
Get paid tomorrow though, so i’ll prob have a punt at a scorecast for the final
