Spains looking the part thus far...
Also what an amazing comeback by Turkey the other night vs. Czechs...
That was brilliant...
That one is going down for the ages.

Also I will apologise for attempting to correct you on Podolski/Klose. That was very stupid of me, seeing as I was only half-watching the game anyway (and somehow misunderstod the commentators, I think). I sent some rep [limited due to my measly punch power] your way to make up for it.
I'm an Argentina fan, I would actually consider them more of the Zab Judah to football.Quote:

We always look the part, we've got the players and then we just can't seem to seal the deal and win it.
For the QF, I'll take Portugal & Turkey.
At least they've won the world cup twice and a shitload of regional tournaments, which is a whole lot better than Spain, but I see where you are coming from.Quote:

Khan early doors looks a cert. Which of course means it will go late. Or maybe Gomez can land one ;D
My picks:
Portugal
Turkey
Netherlands
Spain
I'm cheering for Holland, Croatia, and Germany.
If Netherlands makes it though SalTheButcher is gonna be on here drunk cussing everybody out and celebrating...Quote:

It'd be worth it for that alone. Sal doesn't post enough. I've always appreciated his drunken Canucks-fan rants.Quote:

I know he likes to read a lot...
This time it really was Klose!
2-0, will be tough for the Portuguese to come back from that one.
They have scored one, this looks like it being a classic.
Ronaldo looks like he is gonna cry....If portugal lose i think croatia will win the tournament. Good half so far though..lets hope they keep it up
