i have a feeling croatia might sneek it? but you can never take it away from those bloody germans. i think france italy & spain portugal play to simular a game & will cancel each other out. its going to be a great tournement either way

Interesting it will be indeed, we have become used to not being there but the English still have not come to terms with it. Well a message of warning lads get used to it!!!!!!!!!!!:whs:
my tip to win it is Italy!!!!!
To be fair Shaunt he lads from the other side of the wall have had more practice at non-attendance, give us time and we learn to accept it just like you have.

I reckon Spain too. I just think the technical ability in the Spanish squad, with players like Cesc, Villa, Torres and Ramos will be too strong for the likes of Germany, France and Italy.
Sweden may have no chance but due to King Henrik I'm with them !!!!
I fancy Spain ... Super Cesc and Torres will need to have big tournament tho!
I fancy france or italy, just hope italy dont win else we wont hear the last of it from RAPHA.
Bratts, you deserve everything you get after the phone messages on the last day of the season, haha! I am not confident about Italy's chances - we are historically poor in the Euros and start-off all big tournaments slowly; which would be a nightmare in this scenario, as we have Netherlands, France and Romania in our 'group of death'. So saying that, I wasn't confident before the last World Cup and look what happened? Plus we deserve to win it if we emerge from that group!
We have an inexperienced coach in Donadoni (Lippi gone now) and you will see a different style of football, at least. We now play 4-3-3 with two little strikers (both from Naples ;)) supporting big man Toni up front.
Our weakness is if one of those two supporting men get injured - because aside from Di Natale & Quagliarella, we don't have any amazing forwards to support Luca. Totti retired, Inzaghi is probably being flagged off-side as we speak and the rest are mugs!
holland with super robin van persie being the player of the tournament(if he stays fit!)
Rapha - what phone messages?? i was hammered mate n honestly dont remember phoning you...
portugal for me, ronaldo collecting ANOTHER trophy!
portugal for me, ronaldo collecting ANOTHER trophy!
what to add to the ones he's gonna be getting at madrid :lol:
Ha ha. I think I still have the message saved. It starts off quite sympathetic but then the emotion took hold of you and I got about ten minutes of cheering - i'm sure I heard Slim Bratts in the background too - you couple of James Blunts, haha!
