Euros start today and whilst they obviously haven't got the interest they would had England (And to a much lesser degree, scotland) been there, we should still be able to see some great games.
As well as taking over Turkey in the Euro Stunners (Thanks Axs) I was also unlucky enough to pull them out of the bag at my locals promotion (For every game Turkey win, I get a free pint, for every draw it's a half. I'm not expecting to get more than a half tbh!) Due to this, I've put a tenner on the Turks to beat Portugal today :?
Come on you Turks!!!!!!

Should get at least a half from the Swiss game.
Got a few bets on this...Romania or the Czechs to win, Villa top scorer/Germany win double, Mario Gomez top scorer and Austria come bottom (Safe bet that one)
Should make it more fun.

It will be strange to watch a major championship without having a team to support. Now I know what it's like to be Scottish.
What will be interesting though is to be able to sit back and study the football being played, and then decide if the standard is better in the Champion's League.

i'm looking forward to this slightly more than if england were there.
i've drawn romania and poland in the work sweepstake; romania haven't a chance in their group so i'm supporting polska.

I got Croatia in the sweepstakes and I also have them in the stunners competition, so I'm supporting them.

Martin O'Neil is among the pundits on the bbc. Woooooo.
This is offset entirely by having Shearer sat next to him. Booooooo.

Martin O'Neill is a shit football pundit and I don't think the fact it takes him 5 minutes to make his point (if he makes one at all) is particularly amusing.
Get Strachan back into the pundit seat, he was far far better.

Yeah he was on earlier. He was just better at analysing the game than say Alan Hansen.

Come on you Turks!!!!!! This is a bit rich as England aren't there, given the way you go on about the Premiership as if it's the anti-christ.

BBC coverage was a bit snobby at the beginning - moaning about this and that.
We didn't qualify - deal with it.
