The Official Euro 2012 Thread

[DeeGun]

First of all, I´m fully aware there is a football thread, so to all the moaners..don´t

Championships like that are every 4 years, so they surely deserve their own thread.

Football isn´t gay, boring or shite but if you don´t like it you will never understand, so stay away and don´t preach

You can still easily access and post in your "post a picture of my asscrack in ms paint" threads

----------

Six weeks ahead of the European soccer championship co-hosted by Ukraine and Poland, German politicians debate boycotting the matches in Ukraine in protest of opposition leader Yulia Tymoshenko's imprisonment.

LONDON -- Roy Hodgson was unexpectedly approached about filling the England coaching vacancy Sunday, with the well-traveled West Bromwich Albion manager opening talks about the job barely a month before Euro 2012 begins.

Haha, I hope germany won´t win..basically for the same reasons..life here will be horrible..

[kenyon]

i'm pissed of that belgium arnt in it man they could fuckin win it with the team theyve got this year, Thibaut Courtois, Thomas Vermaelen, Vincent Kompany, Steven Defour, Eden Hazard, Wistel, Kevin De Bruyne and lukaku

[Jwood27]

apparently ticket sales have gone really badly for it so far..

looking forward though, hodgson will do a job and get england at least out the group imo

Maybe a bit too early..but tbh I think they end up like "the golden generation" of Portugal..

[$pyto]

Will we take a chance and send the young guns, with established stars (e.g. Scott Parker), who actually want to play?

If we take Terry, Lampard & Gerrard then we will be SHIT..again

I wonder how many people will go missing in Ukraine lol

[cptunicorn]

i just know that poland has the most agressive and craziest soccer hooligans in the world.

dont want to be in europe when poland loses...

[MAJESTIC]

So Hodgson has been approached... Not sure what to think bout it atm but what I do know is I don't want to see Harry favouring all his Spurs players.

If we take Terry, Lampard & Gerrard then we will be SHIT..again

Imo they should all be in the squad along with Rio,

-------------------Hart---------------
Richards - Terry - Cahill - A.Cole
-----------------Parker--------------
Milner/Gerard ---Young/Johnson
-----------------Rooney------------
-------Welbeck-----------Sturidge(even tho he is greedy)

The only players over 30 they should consider taking is Scholes and Ashley Cole

Really?

Would you not want to see different people have a go? We take the same fuckers every bloody international tournament. They'd rather be shagging a badger bareback than playing for their country (with maybe the exception of Gerrard).

And, especially after the season he's just had, Kyle Walker should start over Cashley

[dnbkingz]

Holland / Germany FTW

[chanty]

hart
walker, cahill, terry,cole
young, parker, lampard, a.johnson
rooney, sturridge

starting 11... plus take a sub keeper, jones, m.richards, gibbs, gerrard, carrick, walcott, oxlade-chamberlain and welbeck

[kenyon]

Maybe a bit too early..but tbh I think they end up like "the golden generation" of Portugal..

i hope they dont but i dont think they will flop like them, they have a good young team the potential attacking force of De Bruyne, Lukaku and Hazard is crazy
