Gonna have to make sure the kids have a nice long afternoon nap and have plenty of coffee or there’s a real danger they could be asleep by 8pm and I’ll have to watch Ireland v Georgia.

Get them to watch a Scotland game rerun/highlights, they will be asleep in 5 minutes, then wake then up for dinner (y)

France were always going to be good with the amount of talent they have at their disposal and coming through, I make them clear favorites for Euro 2020.

Yep, they've had a consistently talented pool since their glory period of winning World Cup and Euros in a row but this current lot just seem that much better and they (seem) to have quelled their usual in-fighting that derails them - like when Benzema was banned for blackmailing one of his team mates! :ROFLMAO:

Aaand Norway piss away a 2-0 lead at home to Sweden and lose 3-2. That is embarrassing. Good first half, godawful shite last half hour.

Had a double on them and Switzerland. With 15 minutes to go it was looking good with both teams 2 nil up and then they go and do that ??

Spoke too soon, 3-3 in the fifth of three added minutes !!!

(Because of an injury, legit delay)

In fairness Sweden would've deserved a win. Norway's first goal was an absolutely massive offside and Sweden dominated in terms of shots both on and off target.

But man, that felt good.

And Denmark just came back from 3 nil down to snatch a 3-3 draw!! Hopefully that will give Eriksen a confidence booster.

In response to the tennis ball protest Mick McCarthy said he may have to bring a tennis racket with him, gotta love his dry wit! ???

McGoldrick is an old fave of McCarthy’s from Ipswich as well so he seems to know how to get best out of him.

Big Mick is a good manager too, vastly underrated.

Just look at Ipswich since he’s gone.

Fuck a duck. Went to bed with Denmark being 3 0 down on 80 minutes and wake up to a draw. Lovely fucking jubbley.

Norway cruising 2-0 against Romania and it's been a really good performance. Ødegaard and Sander Berge, the Genk CM who keeps getting linked with us, have been brilliant.

Ødegaard will be a superstar. I've doubted him for a couple of years as he struggled to assert himself at Castilla and on loan in Holland, but now he's looking every bit the player we hoped he'd become when he joined Real.
