A millionaire sportsman destroying the property of a journalist who was just doing their job. Not sure I see that as commendable myself, just further evidence of petulance and arrogance.

Well it is that, of course, but do you not get pissed off with journalists barging in anywhere they feel like it? Or perhaps it's just the penalty you have to pay for being famous or a quid pro quo for sometimes/often wanting to use the media to your own advantage. Except it isn't just famous people who are targeted and it does feel as if the 'media' believe they have a right to intrude wherever.
Hungary v Portugal = lots of fun. Didn't get to watch Iceland v Austria but looks like they've won and I believe that this means England won't play Portugal.

There were no Lyon ultras present when I was with the England fans who were shouting aggressive xenophobic slurs at the bar staff who refused to serve them more beer and then tried to start a fight with the police.

Not looking great for the Republic despite the good performance in their own match thus far; I really hope they can get somerthing out of this game or that Belgium can do them a favour.

Hahaha or they could just BEAT ITALY and get through that way! :D Well done, Ireland!

Yes, well done RoI. Great stuff. :)

Good news. Belgium makes it to the finals !
The lower bracket has Italy, Spain (playing each other in the first round), Germany, France and England. Good luck guys. The upper bracket has Belgium. And that's it. The other countries don't really count. Maybe you'd think Portugal is a contender in the upper bracket. But Portugal will be out in the first round. That leaves Belgium an open and uncontested road to the finals. Good luck Belgium !
Of course the Germans will beat the Belgians in the finals. But there is nothing anyone can do about that .....

Dodgy Oirish bar WiFi be damned! Whoooo hoooo!
I didn't see that coming to be honest!
Bloody brilliant though!
England, Wales, Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland through.

Half time in Iceland-England and this is vintage Hodgson as England trail 2-1 :laff:
Finally the whole world can see how right I was.
Just to give you an idea of how terrible Iceland are, their midfielder Gudmundsson plays in the THIRD tier of English football.
