Saw something on TV earlier that was a bit of a warm up to Euro 2012.
I barely gave it a second thought except......... I'd usually get a tinge of excitement but alas this year, there was nothing. I believe I will genuinely have a general feeling of 'meh' throughout the tournament.
Olympic football might be worth watching though. A load of youngsters hungry to prove themselves should, hopefully, make for some good matches. It'll also be interesting to see how psycho does as a manager.
Anyone?

Shouldn't be part of the olympics. Not the pinnacle of the sport.

I've got tickets to the Bronze medal match at the Millennium. Couldn't really give a toss but a mate got them.
Could be a good tournament, the Olympics have helped launch a few players onto the World stage in recent years. Step forward Lionel Messi.

Our old boy (well child really) Alex Henshall is in line for a call up I read somewhere. I would like to see him play one day.

He's got an invite, but I think every player in the country under 23 got one. Be suprised if he actually got called up |

Beckham, Giggs and Steven Fletcher are reportedly going to be the over-23s.  |

Not sure, the keeper of the social calendar is not staying up for the Superbowl! But 27th sounds about right. I'll let you know. |

Football has been part of the the modern games since pretty much the start. I suppose it's a relic on the old amateur days.
I'm scheduled to going to a double header at St James' Park. I only applied because it's a bit of pre-season football.
