I'm not sure the Dutch have what it takes either. I think I'll play the sensible card and say France will probably win, but I'd quite like it to be somebody random Title: Banged £40 on Holland Post by: Chubbs on Sunday, June 1, 2008, 23:56:42 Quote from: "reeves4england" Quote from: "JPC82" Spain for me Spain have some decent players but have massively underachieved in pretty much every tournament I remember them in.

I think I'll play the sensible card and say France will probably win, but I'd quite like it to be somebody random on paper spain have the best team Cassillas, Albiol, Puloy, Ramos, Alonso, Fabregas, Xabi, Silva, Iniesta, Villa, Torres to name a few, but they never seem to deliver, never made it past 1/4 finals in the world cup, same for the euros since 84 where they were runners up and winners in 64. My money was going to go on Croatia, but without eduardo i think they will struggle. How ever much i hate to say it, i think gremany are the most likley to win.

Title: Banged £40 on Holland Post by: chalkies_shorts on Monday, June 2, 2008, 07:12:29 I'm going for Croatia. Beat us very convincingly home and away. Good manager, good team.

Title: Banged £40 on Holland Post by: Batch on Monday, June 2, 2008, 07:54:13 Spain, Holland and Portugal will bottle it.
Germany, France, Italy and an 'outsider' like Croatia are my picks. Title: Banged £40 on Holland Post by: Leggett on Monday, June 2, 2008, 08:29:27 the germans will win, FACT.
Title: Banged £40 on Holland Post by: Bob's Orange on Monday, June 2, 2008, 10:34:33 As long as France and Portugal don't win i'll be happy. I work with loads of French and can't be doing with their smugness and there are loads of Portuguese in Luxembourg and can't be doing with them either!!
I would quite like Holland or Spain to do well. Croatia as an outside bet as well Title: Banged £40 on Holland Post by: tans on Monday, June 2, 2008, 11:04:40 Portugal.
Title: Banged £40 on Holland Post by: JPC82 on Monday, June 2, 2008, 11:06:59 spain have to come good sometime

Title: Banged £40 on Holland Post by: Bogus Dave on Monday, June 9, 2008, 21:15:05 Holland wont win it
Title: Banged £40 on Holland Post by: Iffy's Onion Bhaji on Monday, June 9, 2008, 21:24:45 Quote from: "STFC dave" Holland wont win it Agree. Much like Spain they always show early promise and bottle it or under perform in the knockout stages. It will be Germany, France or Italy that win it. The fucking boring bastards again basically. Title: Banged £40 on Holland Post by: Bogus Dave on Monday, June 9, 2008, 21:25:41 Portugall will win it.
Title: Banged £40 on Holland Post by: Simon Pieman on Monday, June 9, 2008, 22:01:30 I've put money on Portugal so they won't win it
Title: Banged £40 on Holland Post by: Spud on Monday, June 9, 2008, 23:32:16 I now hope Holland get knocked out after reading the opening of this thread, im nice like that. :wink:

Title: Banged £40 on Holland Post by: leefer on Saturday, June 14, 2008, 08:53:50 Good luck Bushey..playing well but i think they may of peaked,hope they give 100% v Romania in respect for other teams.

MVB shouldn't be too disheartened if they knock out the french and Italians by losing to Romania.
Save his best players for the 1/4 finals. Title: Banged £40 on Holland Post by: Reg Smeeton on Saturday, June 14, 2008, 10:29:59 Quote from: "STFC dave" Holland wont win it I'd be happy to see Holland win....I've always liked Dutch footballl, how they produce talent from a small population and the emphasise on technical football. But I'm inclined to agree, they wont win it. Being in such a strong group, probably means they'll have put in too much into qualifying......probably lose on pens. They're even worse than England at this. Title: Banged £40 on Holland Post by: Chubbs on Saturday, June 14, 2008, 10:45:02 Quote from: "janaage" Exactly time for the reserves to get some game time. MVB shouldn't be too disheartened if they knock out the french and Italians by losing to Romania. Save his best players for the 1/4 finals. Exactly, Holand are top of the group whatever happens,. theres are players in that squad that have the chance of the lifetime, give them that chance, give the star players a rest, so they are ready for the next round. Title: Banged £40 on Holland Post by: yeo on Saturday, June 14, 2008, 10:46:54 I think they should try to lose to be honest.
Title: Banged £40 on Holland Post by: janaage on Saturday, June 14, 2008, 12:27:46 If they don't lose to Romania, then lose to France or Italy in the semi finals, if I were a dutchy I'd be v. angry. Netherlands have earned the right to send the French and Italians home.
Title: Banged £40 on Holland Post by: Bogus Dave on Saturday, June 14, 2008, 12:32:47 I don't think the dutch tactics are going to help them win tbh. They can counter attack very well, but all it needs is for them to come up against a team that can take its chances and have something resembeling a defence and they'll struggle.
Title: Banged £40 on Holland Post by: janaage on Saturday, June 14, 2008, 12:43:44 I agree to a certain extent, I'd be surprised to see the dutch win it. Just think they'll find themselves a goal down or two and they'll have one of those days were the don't get the rub of the green.
I hope I'm wrong as so far they deserve to go far. Title: Banged £40 on Holland Post by: Reg Smeeton on Saturday, June 14, 2008, 12:49:04 Quote from: "STFC dave" I don't think the dutch tactics are going to help them win tbh. They can counter attack very well, but all it needs is for them to come up against a team that can take its chances and have something resembeling a defence and they'll struggle. One of the curios of this tourny so far is that all the defences seem a bit shit, even Italy,who have been reduced to Panucci and Chiellini. Whereas in recent years they've had a pick from Cannavaro, Nesta, Maldini, Baresi, Costacurta. Spain, have Puyol and Marchena, distinctly dodgy. Metzhelder and Merterseker resemble a couple of trees. Portugal's pairing of Pepe and Carvalho looks as good as anything, so probabaly makes them favourites. Title: Banged £40 on Holland Post by: Sippo on Saturday, June 14, 2008, 13:15:27 Puyol is a no nonsense defender. He's ace. 8)
Oh and has great hair! Title: Banged £40 on Holland Post by: Spud on Monday, June 16, 2008, 18:10:04 Quote from: "Sippo" Puyol is a no nonsense defender.
