Slovakia v them

[EH17 Jimmy]

Slovakia have started off no to bad.

 

[EH17 Jimmy]

Decent chance there.

 

[Peevemor]

Oh, that's a shame...

 

[Dub]

1-0 SVK. Good goal, Engerland under the cosh.

 

[EH17 Jimmy]

Well deserved goal as well.

 

[Cavalier]

Lovely.

Bobbly pitch maybe? Bloody foreigners?

 

[bigmanandy]

Lovely.

Bobbly pitch maybe? Bloody foreigners?

Every match the commentators blame the pitch, always some excuse with them.

 

[bigmanandy]

It's just a England team of very average players many who play with top players around them at club level that make them look better than what they are.

 

[Bangkokhibby]

Might be worth a few bob on a red card second half.

 

[Dub]

The booing is music to my ears.

 

[Andy.P]

These aren’t bad players. Just a very a shit team. Strange really. Funny nonetheless.

 

[Norwayhibs]

Please god, hold out for another 45 minutes

 

[Dub]

Please god, hold out for another 45 minutes

Add to it, please. I've got small wagers;

2-0 Slovakia 40/1
2-1 Slovakia 26/1

 

[Bangkokhibby]

I've got under 3.5 goals and double result Slovakia/Draw

 

[Dub]

Nothing sweeter than seeing VAR disallow their goal.

 

[Peevemor]

I fuckin' love VAR!

 

[hibs1875]

I fuckin' love VAR!

We all slag off Var for ruining the game (which is does at times) but that goal is exactly the reason VAR is needed

A decent linesman would have flagged him anyway.

England won't lose this now. TV off, money in the hip.

[Dier - 1558]

Only if they are English and not winning.

 

[Dier - 1558]

If they hold on to win, the Swiss will Roll all over them.

 

[Hibees-Mad]

Lucky lucky bastards

 

[Dier - 1558]

How can their Orc support think they can win this tournament with that display, they have got good individual players, but they can’t blend as a team…………..that’s down to the blender and that’s Southgate.

 

[Dier - 1558]

You wonder what some past Managers would have done with the talent England currently have Clough for example.

 

[Zab]

Was like watching many an Edinburgh derby that… better team lose as the other lot score with their only two shots. Lucky bastards.

 

[kaimendhibs]

Slovakia blew it by sitting back in 2nd half. Engerlund are shite as a team, as if the players dont like or know each other

 

[numptyploom]

If they hold on to win, the Swiss will Roll all over them.

Jammy bastards

 

[Greenmachine]

Thought England would win the Euros from the start....still think they will.

 

[Hibees-Mad]

Thought England would win the Euros from the start....still think they will.

I thought that too. But surely a half decent team does them. They're a connection if great players, but not a team

 

[GORDONSMITH7]

A Pyrrhic victory against a team from a country with a population of 2 million.
Not a chance of them winning this tournament.

BIG G

 

[hibbybilly]

As expected, an election in 3 days time, anarchy in France, Israel committing genocide in Gaza. First 5 minutes is all about…

 

[Beagle]

Their opposition needs to stop listening to the hype and show them no respect. Based on fuck knows what, they were tipped as champions before a ball was kicked. Slovakia could and should have put them to the sword but opted to park the bus and defend a single goal lead.
Hopefully the Swiss will realise that if the keep attacking instead of fannying about and letting them come on to them, then everyone except the German riot police can breathe a sigh of relief.

To be fair, even at 1-0 Slovakia had that great chance with Pickford way off his line and an unguarded goal. That went in England were definitely heading home.

Switzerland showed Italy no respect, they’ll prove a tougher prospect on Saturday. England may improve though…

 

[HaarlemShuffler]

I believed from the moment that Slovakia got their goal England would equalise in the last ten. Didn't bargain for a supergoal in the dying seconds from annoyingly-talented-and-don't-I-know-it Bellingham.

Missed the Kane 'softie' as I nipped off for a slash.

They might just win it in some weird cosmic Southgate phenomenon, victory from the gob of defeat etc event....

I thought they fell to bits in the second half. 45th in the world for a reason. Their defending got evermore panicky and their passing became woeful.

Spain will win it.

Spain will win it.

Hope so, got £5 on them.

The fact they've played so badly and find themselves in the quarters worries me, they're jammy enough to win the thing and they also can't continue to be so bad. At some point its got to click for them?
