Deathtank Posted June 6, 2008 Posted June 6, 2008 OK Soccer fans!! its thst time again where, we, soccer suckers, fill these forums with passsion and nonsense! http://www.euro2008.uefa.com/ Whos your favorite team? I think the winner will be between France, Itay and Portugal, but I hope Spain wins! Quote
OceansAndrew Posted June 6, 2008 Posted June 6, 2008 Final will be Italy VS France, and France will dominate! Quote
Raziellink Posted June 6, 2008 Posted June 6, 2008 Being Dutch, i hope the Netherlands wins. But they won't. I think France or Italy. Quote
Deathtank Posted June 7, 2008 Author Posted June 7, 2008 Being Dutch, i hope the Netherlands wins.But they won't. I think France or Italy. hey, I totally forgot abouthe Holland!! O_O they have a great team, they might be a surprise! Btw, talking about the Netherlands...http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bWuF7XJ_RO8 Quote
jayc4life Posted June 7, 2008 Posted June 7, 2008 I've my money on Spain. But whoever made this thread should do some research. It's called the European Football Championships. Not Eurocup. Quote
Fishy Posted June 7, 2008 Posted June 7, 2008 We did a random lot bet at work, so apparently I want Netherlands to win. GO NETHERLANDS! Quote
Tensei Posted June 7, 2008 Posted June 7, 2008 I'm rooting for both the Netherlands and the Czech Republic, having a double nationality has it's merits. Quote
jayc4life Posted June 7, 2008 Posted June 7, 2008 We done a random "names in a hat" sweepstake too. I wanted Spain, but drew Romania. I might as well give up my €5 already. Quote
Deathtank Posted June 7, 2008 Author Posted June 7, 2008 I've my money on Spain. But whoever made this thread should do some research.It's called the European Football Championships. Not Eurocup. Sorry its known as Eurocopa in here, and in Spain http://www.marca.com/ so I thought it was called Eurocup in all Europe.... Btw, 5 euros?!!? what kind of bet is that? bet more! Quote
jayc4life Posted June 7, 2008 Posted June 7, 2008 Don't worry about it. If you were from Europe, it'd be a different matter, but I suppose I'll let it slide seeing as you're following from a distance. I'll probably not bother actually watching it this year (same as other years), mainly because the Irish didn't qualify Quote
Raziellink Posted June 7, 2008 Posted June 7, 2008 hey, I totally forgot abouthe Holland!! O_O they have a great team, they might be a surprise! Btw, talking about the Netherlands...http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bWuF7XJ_RO8 Great commercial. Well, i am rooting for my country, and i know they'll get somewhere, it's just that we've got a very difficult poule, and we don't always play up to snuff. Quote
Tensei Posted June 9, 2008 Posted June 9, 2008 NETHERLANDS VS. ITALY. Shit will go down tonight. Quote
Bundeslang Posted June 9, 2008 Posted June 9, 2008 Final will be Italy VS France, and France will dominate! I don't think that's possible, they can play the semi-final. Hopefully Poland and Russia do well, but I hope the Netherlands to win. Quote
OceansAndrew Posted June 9, 2008 Posted June 9, 2008 I don't think that's possible, they can play the semi-final. Yeah, i misread the brackets, my mistake. Quote
Magewout Posted June 9, 2008 Posted June 9, 2008 HUP HOLLAND HUP!!! 3-0, what a humiliation for Italy rofl. Plus I'm probably the only Belgian supporting The Netherlands xD Quote
Fishy Posted June 9, 2008 Posted June 9, 2008 We did a random lot bet at work, so apparently I want Netherlands to win.GO NETHERLANDS! rofl, I win Quote
Tensei Posted June 9, 2008 Posted June 9, 2008 HUP HOLLAND HUP!!! 3-0, what a humiliation for Italy rofl.Plus I'm probably the only Belgian supporting The Netherlands xD Good, we'll make sure you will be one of the people to survive once we start invading Belgium. ALSO ZOMG NETHERLANDS ITALY PWNAGE Quote
Raziellink Posted June 9, 2008 Posted June 9, 2008 We made them eat their own feces. Payback for a couple of years back i'd say. First soccer game i've actually watched through in years, and it was a terrific match! I never expected them to do so well! Quote
Deathtank Posted June 9, 2008 Author Posted June 9, 2008 Congrats Netherlands!!!!!! Poor Italy.... And what a let down France's Match! Quote
Raziellink Posted June 10, 2008 Posted June 10, 2008 Congrats Netherlands!!!!!! Poor Italy.... And what a let down France's Match! I didn't get to see France/Romania, but i've heard they played really bad. Friday's match of Holland/France is going to be an interesting one. First match after our tremendous victory, so hopes are high. However, France has something to prove after their last match, AND they've seen what we can do. So they are bound to put in more effort since they know we can be very dangerous. Quote
Barnsalot Posted June 10, 2008 Posted June 10, 2008 Netherlands tore it up, yeah? Now, Spain vs. Russia should be interesting. Quote
Urban Xperience Posted June 10, 2008 Posted June 10, 2008 I think Croatia are going to be a surprise this time. Could they do a 'Greece'? I very much think so. The stupid English didn't even qualify this time, WTF was that all about. All they had to do was to draw or beat Croatia at home and thye lost AT WEMBLEY. Miseries aside, its been a great start and I was impressed with the opening few matches, Switzerland in particular, even if they lost. As for winning Euro 08, I'd say its out of Portugal or Spain for now. Can't really say til everyone has played at least once. Im glad there's a Euro 08 thread on OCR, hope to fill as much passion as the World Cup one lol. Come on guys, Ole Oleee Ole Oleeee! Quote
Raziellink Posted June 10, 2008 Posted June 10, 2008 Yeah, i was pleasantly surprised by the lack of Great Britain. No England, Scotland, Wales or Ireland. I'm quite anxious to see what Russia does. Guus Hiddink did a great job with Korea and Australia, so i wonder what Russia is going to do. Quote
MaCe Posted June 10, 2008 Posted June 10, 2008 Croatia will win!!!!:razz: heh of curse i am cheering for my country but i don't know if we will beat the Germany,it is going to be a tough match cant wait;-) Quote
Urban Xperience Posted June 10, 2008 Posted June 10, 2008 Yeah, i was pleasantly surprised by the lack of Great Britain. No England, Scotland, Wales or Ireland. Lol at 'pleasantly surprised'. You shouldn't really even count the Welsh but I am sticking my neck out here: England- Good (theoretically) but disasterous as they couldn't even qualify for Euro 08. Scotland- Were bad, but since the new manager they have bigger balls than Engalnd at the moment. Were a serious threat against France and Italy in their friendlies/qualifying matches. Wales- Uh who? Rep of Ireland- Have quality players but are inconsistent at the moment. Northern Ireland- Are improving but without qualification for the Euros, don't have as much recognition. Quote
