You have more chance than winning money than most to be honest. You should be cheering them to lose!

Oh the wrong side of the group of death. Ah well at least i won the Euro 2008 babes competition!!!!

No contest really!

rednik

Both myself and Des will be cheering our sides to a great loss . Funny thing is these tournaments always spring surprises (Greece). Not that I am holding out for a miracle as looking at the group I can't see any wins but probably nick a draw.

Italy - Jason

That's kind of funny, because they are the one team I didn't want to win...that will have to change now, I guess!

KevIRL

Poland - nul points.

We're goin for the worst team:D

Tusky

Id like to put a bet on Spain to win. I know nothing about betting though. Anyone know of any good odds ? Possibly Spain to win + Torres or Villa top scorer ?

Spain & Torres - 18/1
Spain & Villa - 40/1

Mr Alan

Villa may not be a starter for Spain Tusky, wouldnt waste your money on that one

Charlie

Croatia ya bleedin legends. Even had them set as my favourite team when entering the fantasy football, so I guess it was written in the stars.

And hey, Tusky, stop lifting my Melissa posts from other threads;)!

Now there's the money shot!! Couldn't wait to go home to have a look :D

~Rebel~

I get to cheer on this Portugese beuty



What? what d'ya mean its a dude?!


Im so torn though. I want them to win, but i despise the chap. Fingers crossed for him to be suspended for the final, but Figo and Rui Costa to come back (somehow) and save the day!

Mikeyt086

Well, come on Sweden.

Bit of Henrik magic please.

And Tusky in relation to the userbars, i dont know a site where you can make them but im making myself a Sweden one and i could make a few others aswell.

Greece - emc2

We're defending champions surely we must be favourites!!!

Just pay me now lads!*






*(will accept payment for worst team upfront!)

jArgHA

Nederland oh Nederland.
Jij bent de kampioen.
Wij houden van Oranje.
Om zijn daden en zijn doen.

(Netherlands oh Netherlands.
You're the champion.
We love Orange.
Because of its deeds and its doings.)

Go On The Dutch!

PS My mum is actually Dutch so I generally do follow them in any tournament that Ireland don't qualify for (most), until their team punchups get the better of them.

Fair play to you Xavi,she's a bit of class.:)

Anyone looking for a bet on this OK needs to be done for €50 or more but looking at the special bets on paddy power's
The one that catchs my eye as a cover bet , is group winner to win.

Group C at 11/5 (Italy, Holland and France )

Ok one strong team going home early. But you will be left with two strong teams(1/4%) in the last 8 who cannot play each other again till final .

Are you sure they can't play each other again??

I thought on the UEFA website it said that the winners of QF 3 & 4 would play each other in semi final 2. This could be the 2 qualifiers from group c if they win their QF's.
It's seems fcuked up to me and i questioned it on here before. Basically means that the likes of Portugal and Germany could have a really easy run to a final place..

IrishMike

For cryin out loud, Mr Alan gets Spain.
Its a fix!

Mr Alan

Jealousy will get you nowhere my friend.

OOOOOhhhhhhhh, we brought the lad from sunny spain! TORRES!TORRES!

Ya your right, just checked it out there. The winner and runner up of Group B can meet in the semi final if they win their respective quarter finals.
