Dude, I have backed only England to lift the cup. However, because my blood is warmer than my wallet, the only teams which must beat England should they draw each other are Ireland and Italy. Shall we also throw the Jocks in? Yeah, because my one son lives in Stornoway.

My tip.
England to beat Germany in the final 4-2.
Scotland to play Holland and San Marino in a friendly tournament.

How many of these skirt wearers can ye name Taggert

I'm not saying the Scottish FA were tight,but Rod Stewart wanted a haggis to appear.So they found over means to save a bit.

He's on holiday.Was last spotted going into a pub with a couple of Richards.

2010 spain lost opening game to the switz, went on to win WC. They lost their last warm up game to Georgia, could this be their catalyst once again?

Are Spain not bit aging these days ?

If im not mistaken, Iniesta is the oldest player in the outfield. Off the top of my head, Iniesta and Silva are over 30, and then Ramos, Pique, Busquet, Juanfran and Fabregas are late 20's, the rest are kids.

There are four sets of brothers among the players at UEFA EURO 2016, with one set on two opposing teams:

Belgium: Jordan and Romelu Lukaku
Northern Ireland: Corry and Jonny Evans
Russia: Vasili and Aleksei Berezutski
Albania and Switzerland: Taulant and Granit Xhaka

There would have been a record breaking five sets of brothers if only Eden Hazard's brother was named in the top 23 for Belgium.
