Re: Euro 2012
What channel(s) is the Euro 2012 games on with English commentary?
I've always had all the sports channels on offer, last night could only find JSC 1-10. I assume its on 11?
Tried calling Du but after half an hour on hold I swore a lot at the recorded voice and hung up.

Can't see 533, I expect they will sting me for more money today.

HD1 had English commentary in the match but Arabic pundits, Events channel has the English pundits.

Re: Euro 2012
English fans happy with a draw?
I quite enjoyed the game, disappointing goal to concede, Scott Parker got dragged too deep trying to cover for the idiot Glen Johnson, ended up Nasri having too much space and time to drill it.
Such is though.
Win against the other two and hope one of them get a result against the French and we'll be through.
Welbeck and Young were alright, Welbeck did a lot of work which is all I want to see.
Ox-Chambo was alright too, little flashes of attacking but in a game where we didn't have the ball too much and only one period of decent possession that I can remember, can't expect much out of him. Milner was decent too, Lescott and Terry mopped everything up reasonably well.
Not bad, solid performance.
How the referee didn't book the French no6 (Cabaye?) is beyond me.

Re: Euro 2012
I think England will do well this tournament as this time round no one is expecting them to do much.
The usual suspects will be there such as Spain, Germany, Netherlands etc...
The Russians are the dark horses of his tournament.
As long as we get decent games and no crowd trouble, that would be enough for me. But would be nice if England were to win it and if Ireland go past the group stages.

Methinks it was a good point for England with them having 20+ shots and us just 3. Thought the OX and Welbeck did Ok for youngsters but it was maybe not Ashley Young's best game. When he brought on Henderson for Parker I was expecting an avanlanche of French goals but thankfully it didn't happen.
More hopeful we can sneak out of the group now

Re: Euro 2012
Scott Parker was the best player on the pitch last night . England would have won that game last night if Rooney was playing as it was just the game he would of relished as he could have dropped off and ran at people but alas the wanker put paid to that a few months ago !
Canny performance , played a bit deep at times but defended pretty well and a world class save from Hart off the header .
Still my dark horses as i think England will be difficult to beat .

Re: Euro 2012
Scamp - a good summary exactly how I saw it too - I would add in fairness to Parker that Gerrard and Milner were also rushing to cover the right back vacancy - clearly none of them trust the idiot.

I'd like to see Young play wide left, Walcott / Ox on the right and Rooney + Welbeck up top for our last group game.
Also like to see a RB who wants to defend and not just trot about the pitch. Hopefully Roy will give him a kicking.

Re: Euro 2012
Without doubt, but we also need to get through the next game without him. Young can go wandering occasionally, that's why I want to see him stuck wide for England like he is with Utd.
Those front three all being United is a benefit.

Re: Euro 2012
My Predictions for the group was Draw, lose and then win against Ukraine. Agree with CdB Rooney would of made the difference. Soft goal to concede to the fat arsed french prick who was probably the last player I wanted to see score........

Re: Euro 2012
Cabaye or whoever it was playing number 6 must have paid the ref to not book him, phenomenal ability to avoid bookings, rivalling Van Bommel for being un-bookable.
Ah well, draw is good enough for a team I expect to lose to Ukraine and Sweden.

Re: Euro 2012
I'd drop Young , Rooney will come looking for the ball and you still need an outlet for link up play and i think Wellbeck is very very good at that , i think Young can drift in and out of games and at this level you need good discipline and shape .
Big players win games and England need Rooney .
