What I dont get is the obsession with people only being able to say "It's coming home". It's as if that's the extent of their football conversation.
"Did you see the Italy goal?"
"ITS COMING HOME"
Calm down.
This pint's shit, unless I'm drunk it's irrelevant...It’s been good but like the World Cup, all irrelevant unless you win it

You can't have enjoyed watching Cov for the last 50 years either then!
All the more glorious if you’ve experienced the lows tooI enjoyed winning the checkatrade, play offs and league 1, not much else

Don't worry, on the hub if you're lucky, there'll be a five minute lag.Could be fun tonight. Problems with TV signal means that currently have no ITV so if not fixed will watch it on ITV hub, will have sound turned off and will listen to Radio 5 commentary so will have to sync the 2 as radio commentary is normally about a minute behind the TV.
Seems to be ok currently whilst I'm watching the TDF but maybe the amount of people watching tonight may slow it down. So I could be playing with pausing commentary to allow hub to catch up, a different approach to normal!Don't worry, on the hub if you're lucky, there'll be a five minute lag.
If unlucky, you'll get the joys of the same corner over and over again. I'll join you in the misery.
Switzerland v France viewing experience was exactly like this...Seems to be ok currently whilst I'm watching the TDF but maybe the amount of people watching tonight may slow it down. So I could be playing with pausing commentary to allow hub to catch up, a different approach to normal!
Has the game finished yet?Switzerland v France viewing experience was exactly like this...
I don''t get why Denmark are being rated so highly on here.Yes, they're better than Ukraine but we don't need to roll them over 4-0. I don't think they're any better than Germany who we beat comfortably. They only got 3 points in their group and that was against an awful Russia side then they got a good win against a poor Wales team and beat Czech by a single goal like we did. They've conceded 5 goals to our 0 and scored 11 to our 8.
They are doing ok in the FIFA rankings but we all know what a joke they are and some of the teams they've played are awful. Admittedly they beat us but that was when we were pissing around with new formations and systems and didn't look cohesive at all.
I am as confident now as I would have been if Czech got through. I think we should beat them.
More than one person has said they expect us to lose.Not sure it’s about us believing Denmark are amazing as opposed to us being nervy- we are supporters of Coventry City and England- that combination in anyone’s DNA is not exactly going to instil huge confidence levels…

Russia, Wales, and the Czech Republic.Who have Denmark beaten to get to this stage?
More than one person has said they expect us to lose.
As we both beat Czechia we can take them out of the equation.Russia, Wales, and the Czech Republic.
You're welcome.
tbf, much as you can't denigrate England's semi final appearances here or the world cup by saying who they've beaten, you can't do the same to Denmark here. What they have done, is improved as it's gone on. Sure, so have we, but I can't help but feel their style will cause us issues, and if they're positive, they'll do what other teams haven't really done yet, and go at us. It's also the kind of game we struggle in.As we both beat Czechia we can take them out of the equation.
Which is a more difficult run:
Russia & Wales
-or-
Croatia, Germany & Ukraine
Even if we've ended on the easy side of the draw we've beat better than they have.
Russia, Wales, and the Czech Republic.
You're welcome.
Why is it banter if I think we will lose?I try to ignore Sparks and his ‘banter’

As I said, I really hope I'm wrong, so not labouring it too much really!
She's still going home with the fittest bloke in the dancehall though.Watching in an exhibition centre in Manchester tonight, think it's ours 2-1. My stomach's in knots but it always is in the knockouts, was the same v Ukraine until 2 minutes in.
Regarding our style being solid not spectacular, just seen a great quote from an Italian pundit who described us as “Bella ma non Balla” - a beautiful woman who won’t get on the dance floor.
You apparently don't celebrate any victories unless it ends up with a trophy/promotion!Absolutely but I won’t celebrate the failures either
It's going to an amazing night and a great game.
Wait till you see the oversized shirts representing the teams at the opening ceremony - It will bring tears to many eyes!
If you're worried about the result then I believe England is 75% favorit to go through.
It doesn't matter really who the teams have beaten up to this game - after all, you can only beat the teams you're playing.
Early in this thread I said Denmark would play England in the semi ... and Italy in the final
No ITV hub for me, TV reception has been sortedSwitzerland v France viewing experience was exactly like this...
Stream this onto your TV, skip to the anthem ..get goosebumps, have a beer . COME ON ENGLAND
