Who is gonna win the Euro 2004?

[Kinetic]

I was really disappointed with England?s defeat but, 1st of all, they didn?t play better than France

Maybe my view is slightly biased but i thought they did. Are you saying that France were the better team? I think i should try and watch this game again cos i must have been in a daze.

I wasn?t too clear there. What I meant was that the game was too split to say that any of the teams was playing better than the other. I believe a 1-1 draw would have reflected the gameflow better...even though I was rooting for England, so to me it wouldn?t matter if they played like shit, as long as they could win!

...and on Friday we will end Italy's quest for the Euro 2004!!!

[J-Shock]

Its all about Italy this year. Nah seriously, im italian and i was soo pissed off on Monday when the Italians didnt do shit for 90 minutes. Totti wasnt into it, Vieri is passed his prime, Del Piero should only play the last 20 minutes or so, Nesta was sleeping, Cassano did too many stupid moves. I mean come on?

I think theres a good chance France will go all the way and good for them, they have the best player and an incredible chemistry.

I'm not sure what game you were watching. England out played France till the end when, after a series of really stupid miskates, they threw it all down the pan.

If England can keep it up they have a good shot at going far in Euro 2004. They wont be making those same mistakes again, I can assure you.

COME ON ENGLAND.

Police to let England
fans smoke dope

From NICK PARKER in Portugal


ENGLAND fans will be allowed to smoke dope before Sunday?s crunch clash with France ? to keep them calm.

Cops in Lisbon plan to crack down on drunk supporters while turning a blind eye to those spotted puffing on a spliff.

Pot-smoking fans have been assured they will not be arrested, cautioned ? or even have their drugs confiscated.

Last night experts said the Portuguese police?s ?Here We Blow? policy would reduce chances of a punch-up between rival fans.

Alan Buffry of the Legalise Cannabis Alliance said: ?If people are drinking they lose control, if they smoke cannabis they don?t.

?Alcohol makes fans fight. But cannabis smokers will be shaking hands and singing along together.?

Dutch police used a similar policy in Euro 2000 and England?s hooligan element were too stoned to fight.

A Lisbon police spokeswoman said: ?If people cause a problem through drugs and become a menace then police will take action. But when this doesn?t happen why should the police be the ones making the fuss??

More than 600 officers will be on duty for England?s opening group game at Lisbon?s Stadium of Light.

Fans who seem to be drunk may be breath-tested and refused entry.

I think Greece is the biggest surprise for me, i've never seen Greece play like this before, I liked the German coach we were 2 goals ahead and he was screaming at them to score some more goals!!!!hope they keep this tempo!!!Tonite against the spanish will see how far they can go.I reckon a draw but hope we will win.

That?s fucking brilliant!!

For once I?m proud of our Police force.

But the problem is, there was another riot in the Algarve last night. Another 30 English fans arrested (hey, I go to some of those bars in Albufeira in the Summer!!! Leave a piece of it to me!)

Apparently, the police is doing their job, but our drug dealers aren?t.

ENGLAND fans will be allowed to smoke dope before Sunday’s crunch clash with France — to keep them calm.

I think there was a link to a Guardian article related to this in a thread on the ol' MS :cry: The pourtugeese police was advised by the Dutch police, with lots of expirience from the last Euro.
