    The EURO 2012 Fandome

    In half an hour it starts, in about 90 minutes Poland will start it against Greece.

    Anybody else looking forward to it? Any favourites? Some crap we should know about?

    Keep it civil and polite, and enjoy the games!

    And the ball is rolling!

    My guess is a 3:1 for Poland.

    Re: The EURO 2012 Fandome

    Im gonna watch the tournament without any expectation of England doing well. I love my country dearly, but my god our footie team is s**t.

    Im expecting Poland and Russia to win the games today. I got £5 saying they will!!

    Spain for the title IMHO. If the games go a particlar way then it will be a cracking, Germany (Being English this hurts me to say), vs Spain final.

    Not again.

    I have a bad feeling about Germany. I hope that I'm wrong, but maybe they don't even make the quarterfinals...

    A footie tournament without a certain level of success for Germany is a rare occasion indeed. We will see as the tournament goes on.

    wow massively harsh red card in the 1st half of the 1st game!! is it a foul = a yellow? could be a lot of games finishing with less than 11 v 11 if this is kept up.

    I see the same fear in you that would take the heart of me,
    but fear not for we don't auto break and can re-roll for it next turn.

    The red card was way too harsh in my opinion. The Greeks weren't playing great, but they didn't deserve that...

    The communication between the polish keeper and his centre backs was awful for the Greek goal

    For those not following the game: in the 17th minute, Poland takes the lead with a nice 1:0. Leter in the first half, Greece recieves a red card for almost nothing, so it is ten against eleven from now on. The polish team can get no real advantage from this. In the second half, Poland continues to disappoint, but wait, instead Greece can make a goal of their own - 1:1! Later the polish keeper stops a greek forward directly in front of his goal - and gets red. Penalty! But the replacement keeper makes it! Still 1:1, and ten against ten.

    It's an interesting game. Not a good onw, but interesting.

    Interesting game to say the least. It seems like lady luck is fickle indeed!! Game definitely became more interesting in the second half. As a side comment: why did the Greeks let that player execute the penalty? Surely they could have chosen someone other than one in his thirties that has been playing the whole game?

    Re: The EURO 2012 Fandome

    Ref was terrible i the first half, absolutely awful, still we (Greece) came back kicking and screaming and got a draw ( so close to a win it hurts).

    Fun game if not great soccer.

    I wasn't surprised that sczenzy (sp?) cocked up for two major points in the game. His decision making is awful.

    I was right about half the goals though.

    I say 2:0 for Russia.

    EVERYBODY plays, we are the 12th man!

    I liked the replacement keeper saving that penalty - things like that make it worth watching, even if your team is not playing.

    I just had the same thought.

    Good game though, I would have no problems with many more goals.
