Neil

Absolutely inevitable.

Best part of the game so far.

He's clearly a quality player. Just have never really rated him that highly, and don't get the fuss.

Being rootless won't help, Roy.

Long shot but did anyone just see that in the Ukraine game? One of the worst challenges I've ever seen. An attempt at decapitating the opponent's head. Somehow the lad's alright.

A variation from Gerrard. A completely ridiculous attempted shot this time.

Said before, I really don't rate Ribery that highly. A very good player, obviously. But when thinking of the very best players in the world, I never consider him in that bracket. I get the impression he's held in that regard broadly. Maybe I just see his bad games but he goes in the 'overrated' category for me.

Moldova score. Fuck me.

About right. The 8/5 shot (easily the longest odds in the accy) comes through comfortably, while Belgium flail around.

He's really not.

why is he still playing? For the simple fact he's Steven Gerrard.

I repeat, a goal has been scored by Ireland. The one that's alright at football.

Ireland equalise.

Was that Gerrard trying an elaborate ball and losing it? That doesn't happen often.

Decent.

Oh dear Ireland.

Was going to ask about how much of a factor it really is. Consider it more if I win anyway.

Got Ukraine -1 but couldn't see it being a total goalfest. 3-0/3-1 I reckon.

Germany -2 Ukraine -1 ROI over 1.5 goals (risky, thought 8/5 was good value though) Belgium over 1.5 goals

Yes, Portugal should win easily but time and time again they don't. Their last 4 games. Northern Ireland, Gabon, Ecuador, Israel. Draw, draw, loss, draw. You've been warned.

Portugal :scared: :scared:

Been on the news just then that the foundation has raised £5m to date.

Yup. So he probably is the best thing they're going to produce in a while.

Best Kebab 2. :lol: Seriously grim.
