Euro 2008

[Maestro]

...will be a great tournament. The Swiss and the Austrians will put on a great show, and the Swiss XI will come out with of the tournament with a lot of credit.

....on the other hand: footballwise, Austria will disgrace themselves.
They are presently drawing 0-0 with LIECHTENSTEIN. Liechtenstein have hit the bar already.

It's bloody embarrassing.

[Maestro]

Liechtenstein 1-0 Austria

[Mumsafan]

We're not going. We're off to the World Cup in SA instead.

[Maestro]

That will be marvellous....if it indeed goes ahead there.
Austria have equalized. Whoop-ity do.

[Maestro]

Liechtenstein 1-2 Austria.

[Mumsafan]

Is it Liechtenstein who have the same music to the national anthem as Great britain?

Aye. Darren Fletcher will be the star of the tournament.

[Mumsafan]

He has a turned eye I noticed today

[Los Rojos]

You've lost me there Mums

Not hard I know.

[Mumsafan]

He was on SSN and it looked like he'd got a turned eye

[Dhav]

The European Champions will retain their crown

[Mumsafan]

Yes. Of course.

[Bob]

What a preposterous thread. Swiss will come out of the tournament will credit - the same swiss that bored me to near death in the World Cup? Greece, pah.

Get your money on a Scotland - Norn iron final now

The European Champions will retain their crown

Do they automatically qualify as holders?

I thought Uefa scrapped that rule. It's quite ludicrous that they have right enough. The Champions should always be guaranteed qualification to defend their crown.
