  3. This new fangled quote system doesnt really work for this thread so probably best if we copy and paste the list etc.

  5. Ally mccoist has his faults but loved his 'id forgotten there was another game on tonight' comment after another bought of england chat by his co commentator in the denmark game.

    Possibly my own personal bias but seem to recall hearing 'these two are playing for the right to play england'

    What was going on with the goalies moving around loads and putting the penalty takers off so much.

    Amazed the ref didn't pull up the Spanish keeper for moving around like waupun gangnam style.

    If outfield players can 'stagger' runs them goalies can move about. The fact its possible for keepers to be sent off in a penalty shootout if they save one after stepping off the line, plus the kick gets retaken, yet outfield players dont get booked or even spoken to for stopping dead b4 kicking the ball is a joke. In such an instance id like to see that outfield player booked and their penalty cancelled

    Is it fair to remove the away goals rule and yet keep the 'seeding system' in which seeded teams in the first round of knockout stages (last 32) now always host the second legs?

    I won't be surprised if that is soon brought in for qualifiers, Last 16, quarter finals etc

     

    And its gone starting from this season.

    No more Skonto Riga or Bohemians nightmares at Pittodrie, or Dnipro joy in the Ukraine

    Killie claiming Lafferty's agent demanded his wages increase 4 fold for him to stay at the club.

    Random prediction based on fuck all is he turns up in an Arabs shirt next season

    Cyprus it is

  9. STVs coverage seems to be patchy (for me anyway)
    Sound keeps dipping in and out.
    Wont be surprised if they suddenly go to an ad break while the game is still going on (which they have already done in an earlier game)

  10. So either i misunderstood things or UEFA moved the goalposts again as St Johnstone are not guaranteed group stage euro football. Only advantage is apparently they will be seeded if they end up in the Conference league playoffs.....but I won't be surprised if UEFA change that.

    Anyway Hacken currently bottom of the Swedish league with 6 points from a possible 24.

    Nice compact stadium (6500 capacity (2000 standing)) with the customary astroturf

    12? ?

    I still havn't forgiven Gordon for his pathetic attempt at Kane's last second equaliser.

    If blame is to be assigned for that one it should be laid at the door of Armstrong who decided to pass the ball out of defence (seemingly trying to start a counter attack), when he should have punted it as far down the pitch as was possible, ideally for a throw in by the england corner flag.
    Then there is the unforgiveable marking as Armstrong, Brown & Tierney stood and watched the cross coming in, Leaving Berra, Mulgrew and Tierney to mark 5 England players however all 3 of them also decided to watch the ball. Had Kane missed it, Smalling was right behind him for a tap in.

    Oh well tournament over. Cannot see us getting a point from next 2. 

    I predicted 2-0 Czechs.
    Predicting 1-1 at Wenbley which will get the press into a frenzy ...... and then 3-0 Croatia.
