I want Spain or The Netherlands to win because both countries really deserve something. I've supported Holland in competitions ever since Scotland got knocked out of France '98, ten years later and we haven't made it to a major competition since, the shame :cry: Even though I hate Dirk Kuyt I want them to win it.
I've not got a team for it, neither Ireland or N.Ireland are in it.
I'd like to see Greece do well, and only because when Man City sell on Samaras to Celtic, if he scores a few goals and helps Greece along the way we'll bag more money for him.
You do realise that van Nistelrooy and Robben are in the Dutch squad, right?Quote:

A fair number of the BBC pundits are tipping Spain. Frankly I think they're off their rockers.
I was talking more about the nation, but point taken.Quote:

About to start!!
Did you see the view around the stadium? NO ATMOSPHERE WHATSOEVER!!!
I thought Switzerland were a little unlucky in that opening game, they should have had a penalty really as well. Not the most amazing opening game but decent enough.
I think that's pretty much sealed Switzerland's fate. Losing Frei and losing that match to a lacklustre Czech side was a disaster, I think. I don't think they can take out Portugal, and having watched the first half of the Portugal v Turkey match, you get the feeling that Switzerland - Turkey will be just like that World Cup match with Ukraine.
I want to see more goals dammit!
Oh.... Nevermind...
This tournament doesn't really get underway until the first round of Group of Death games for me. I can't see either of tomorrow's games being particularly thrilling contests either. Still, I'm not complaining about three weeks' worth of almost solid football. :greenie:
Germanys playing tomorrow so its going to be amazing.
Also, I tip Romania to actually go through top of the "death group".
Romania - France snorefest......
And that referee is awful!
This is the "group of death"??? I think we can put it down to half a group of death if france carry on like that...
I WANTED them to win but not anymore....
