Now if only the Czechs put out a decent side we can get rid of the Krauts as well, somehow though I see the Germans sneaking through again.:(

But they did play well enough - they had won the same amount of games, and got the same points as Denmark and Sweden... to be knocked out through goal difference must be completely devastating... I too felt very sorry for them :(

PS Come on England!!!!!!!!!!!

seems to say alot about the Italians that their first thought isn't we didn't play well enough and don't deserve to go through but that it must be a fix.. I watched the Denmark v Sweden game ( i hate David Pleat so had no choice) and there was no way that game was fixed..

Looking at Denmark they about the only team so far to perform in all 3 games and could go far.

They struggled to beat Bulgaria 2-1, Sweden won 5-0 and Denmark 2-0 against Bulgaria, so statistically they "are the weakest link, Arrivederci" :D

all the big teams to have gone out deserved to cos they have been boringly negative in their approach. Just because they are Spain, Italy and Germany, they just can't expect to turn up and stroll through.

The phrase is: "Schade Deutschland, alles ist vorbei".

Thing is, Baros is there main man to me anyway.. He's shredded germany's defence apart. I think our defence should be able to handle him though, considering the experiance we've had with him.

I think that remark comes under "counting your chickens";)

well i'm sure we all remember 66 when we played Portugal. 2 goals from Charlton to get us into the final. One a typical screamer from the edge of the 18 yard box. I remember it like yesterday and i wasn't even born til 78 :Yikes:

Got my replica white cotton 66 short with a 9 on the back all ready for the game in honor of that game.. I'm even loosing my hair al la Bobby as well !!!

And that was the last time we beat Portugal in a competitive game.:( About time that was put right.

Hope the commentators keep their gobs shut about 66 and the next rounds and just concentrate on the football and not say any jinx like sentences.... in fact hope they just shut up full stop.
