Talking of which, does Gareth Bale not realise that trying to make a penalty kick land in Atherstone is a lot easier from Tamworth than it is from Baku?
Snapaaaaa!

Locatelli scores a lovely goal for Italy. Very, very tenuous link to the Yeltz. Anyone?

He has a relative that works at Mapei

The link is correct so yes. Actually he plays for Sassuolo who are owned/sponsored by Mapei. Half a house point.

The Azzurri are going to take some stopping.

The Italians are a very well organised and hard working outfit
Mr Mancini has, no doubt about it, began to get the juggernaut out of first and into second gear. In my opinion, a
joy to watch both tactically and visually.

I suspect he'll play Jack Grealish, if the "Darling of The Holte" can fit it in with his duties as the reigning Miss Erdington and the face of Claire's Accessories.

The Chilly Jockos (TM Saint & Greavsie, c1985) will sit deep and a mazy dribbler will help with unlocking the Hadrian's Wall of Bravearse warriors who usually ply their trade for Shrewsbury and Hamilton Airedrionians.

I think he'll play Grealish as well. I just hope we don't settle for a 'Grealish falls over in the box, Kane scores penalty, we win 1-0.

Stunning post Doc,except for the deliberate misspelling of Airdrieonians to reflect a Scottish Lowland League side named after a
Yorkshire river,it it just about the perfect post!(Except of course criticising the choice of sponsors and achievements of our'Pale
Pincko hero') who I believe is still available at 50/1, for SPOTY which is worth a Scot's Euro from Nicola Sturgeon's back Sporron
at anytime!!

Hats off to Wales. Expected a crap game but they gave a really good account of themselves. Must be through, surely. Will someone being Owen down off the ceiling...

Being of Welsh stock myself,I've worked out a way where Italy beat us 10-0 the Swiss give the Turk's a 'taitering, and 4 points isn't
enough to get us through to the last 16,Cymru am bloody Byth!

De Bruyne. Can anybody tell me he is not the greatest player on the planet?

[pantverdant2]

De bruyne is in a top three in ascending order Kev de Socket,Ginniesta(the biggest and most awkward arse in the game since Wayne'mastermind'
Rooney!) and finally Tyrone'better defend taking the knee'Minger.Paul Tait is applying for the job as manager of Hades XI on their tour
down the River Styx against the Bluenose All Stars team and Scott Hiley is still waiting for the list of the top 8 billion players on the
planet to see if he makes the cut ahead of Mother Theresa(as he has as much movement as a dead nun!)
