  Euro 08

I'm appalled at the lack of a topic on the greatest sporting event after the World Cup and the Olympics in that order.

Any persons here rooting for any particular side?

Me, I'm just a punter. Won money off the Croatia and Austria game. Betting on a Portugal win over the Czechs tonight.

BTW, hoorah for Swedish crumpets! Average team, lovely fans.

Hashi, I've followed it religiously from over here however I could. There's only so much I can see on the tube... I try to catch every game I can on TV.

Watched Turkey v Switzerland today, as well as Czech v Portugal. Saw a couple yesterday, and the day before.

And I'm for Turkey all the way. Gotta love the Fatherland.

2010, Leon. Don't miss it. It only comes around every 4 years. It's the most fun you'll EVER have.

Earned some cash off Portugal. Only to lose it again when the Croats hammered the Germans. Damn Croats. Stupid Germans.

Sigh.

And yes, the next World Cup is 2010. Qualification is on the other way. In fact, I will be going for the next qualifying match pitting my own country against Saudi Arabia tomorrow.

Time to brush up my brawling skills. Hoping to antagonize some Arabs and enjoy abit of a scuffle; you never know. But Arab men are big and scary. Hmm. 

"Terrorists go home!!"

I'm not xenophobic. It's just for the fun of it.

BTW, Garet. Congrats on the Turkey win. You're all a nasty bunch, probably the nastiest and dirtiest team in Europe by far. But I've always liked Turkey, for their supporters. Spine-chilling. Best of luck against the Czechs.

Haha, whatever Hashi.

However... when you think of "Most Insane Fans", people tend to think England. I dare you to think that after you experience Turkey's crowd. Better bring your body armor.

Just witnessed Netherlands pound France. Good lord. Those Dutchmen seem unstoppable, trouncing the two best teams in the world.

I watched the World Cup last year and was rooting for Germany. I don't plan on missing the next. I might even be able to go considering I'm graduating.

Well I hope you realize it's in South Africa, Leon. That's quite a graduation present... flight to SA as well as balls-expensive World Cup tickets.

And the last 'Cup was 2006... two years ago. Germany bit it pretty big, too. It's too bad the Turks couldn't continue their great play from 2002 when they won the Bronze.

And I just realised looking at the WC 2010 site... After Euro 08 Europe will begin Preliminary matches. Turkey happens to be in the same grouping as Armenia.

That's going to be hysterical.

Wehey.........Ireland no qualify 

No, no we're really bad. As in REALLY bad. Example; We lost to San Marino.
