Don't know if we are having a sub forum for it, but regardless it's About time we made a thread. Absolute joke Drinkwater was dropped from the squad instead of Wilshere or Henderson. Who is everyone backing and who is everyon predicting wins.

I will back the French once England gets knocked out...Evra and Martial :lovedup:

[Black Dagger]

Rather see Denayer & De Bruyne lift the trophy over England, oops.

[Calderyon]

Oh, i thought every group would be done separately like when World Cup was on.

Anyway, i can´t see past Spain, Germany or France winning it. England might have a good group showing, but they´ll most likely end up knocked out in last 16 or quarters.

Time for MTVN to get to work.

Praying for Italy, but I think like World Cup 2014, they will flop.

But if they are going to turn up in the final like Euro 2012 i'd rather they leave earlier if they are going to have a shambolic game like the Spain one when they lost 4-0 in the final.

[Calderyon]

Yeah, Italy was totally outmatched in that game. I see them getting to quarterfinals at most if they win their group, as their group isn´t that difficult per say.

[Calderyon]

It seems the bookies don´t have faith in Portugal? Why is that?

Is it because their most probable opponents on last 16 are either Belgium or Italy?

[arista]

On ITV1HD now

[Calderyon]

Probably just an exhibition or a preview show. The actual event starts 10th of June.

[Denver]

I say England have a good chance they are on their way to a 3rd successive victory in the warm up games

[Drew.]

I don't mind making some separate group threads again for when it begins, they worked really well during the WC. It's only worth it if they'll be active enough though

[Shaun]

I'm guessing all of the games will be on telly in some capacity? Not sure which channels are covering them. If all games are shown somewhere I'm sure it'll be worthwhile having separate threads

[Drew.]

Yeah, BBC and ITV always show every game of major tournaments

[James]

Yeah, I just came in this thread to suggest separate threads for each group. Seems to be quite a few regular posters missing though.

[Drew.]

I've got rid of Locke and recruited another member to help me with the threads this year
