Gadger 0 Posted June 4, 2004 Because of the attitude of UEFA towards the Russian FA, I will not be watching this. Well maybe the final Wales should be there!!!!!!1111!1111!!1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bonko the sane 2 Posted June 4, 2004 after Portugal beats Greece ill be banned by Ex-Ronin from these forums... But seriously, although my country is hosting this championship, my bet for the final is Spain vs England or Italy. This said, Portugal will win, we bought the referees and kidnaped their families Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
quicksand 0 Posted June 4, 2004 Sorry,just want to share my pain.My country Romania full heartedly deserved to participate at the Euros. The referees robbed us with no shame.Even people from Danemark sent us appologies after the outrageous game.I guess some of you would know how they drawn the game 2 minutes after it should have finished.And the penalty with Norway but I`m going to stop my rant here,to much self pitty. My final word is that some justice was made in the friendly with Germany(5-1) when our team was crippled with absences. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ale2999 0 Posted June 4, 2004 Italy. as I am italian, yes I say italy too.

SgtBarnes 0 Posted June 4, 2004 when our team was crippled with absences. Makes a change from your team crippling other players! I was at the game, and it was one of the worst tackles i've ever seen. Â Â I've got Å5 on Germany to win it. I know they're not playing well, but odds of 20-1 were too big to resist. Of course, i`ll also be supporting France, Switzerland and Croatia (and anyone else who play against England!) Â Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rhodite 3 Posted June 4, 2004 Much as I love my ENGLAND I cant see us winning My money is on Italy or Portugal (maybe France if they play to there full potential) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
joltan 0 Posted June 4, 2004 Allez les bleus! I'm tempted to send Zidane a walking stick but I still like the team. Germany doesn't play well enough to get even to the quarters - although we'll probably play like shit, just make the cut and later get to be second in the competition - as usual.
