Tonight's Euro knackerball

Post by Ulster's Best »

Big night for you guys. Very envious.

Grim night for us - set for a hammering in a dead rubber in Italy which most of our best players haven't shown up for. Manager goes after the game, kitman steps down after 31 years and physio after 16 years. Should have been the captain's last game, but he misses it due to injury. It's all as gloomy as the weather.

Ref's just handed it to you! Is soccer the same as rugby in terms of the bigger teams getting the decisions or did the ref just screw up?

I can't be bothered watching, but listening to the radio and reading twitter.

Sounds comical.

Red card sounded well dodgy and now an OG.

Pantomime goal it seems - but after Henry you're due a break I suppose!

Ref's gift is still paying out - sounds like the second keeper isn't up to much and handed oyu the second goal!! After all the clean sheets, you're definitely not gonna leak three to a 10-man team! :lol:

Well, we held out for 21 minutes! Would still take 4-0.
