I haven't washed my England shirt since I wore it v Tunisia. I won't wash it until it's over. I only wear it during the match though, so it's not too smelly - honest.
Eww :sick:
I wore my (very old) England shirt for Panama (6-1), not for Belgium (1-2), not for Colombia (1-1, scraped through on pens) and I wore it for Sweden (2-0, cruised through).
In brief, will be wearing it tonight. I have washed it :scarf:
I can't wash it now though, can I?
Given that I'll be nowhere near you later, no. No you can't.
Got a feeling it's all going to end in tears tonight. :rose:
Actually feel slightly giddy and sick. :sick:
Come on England!!!
Think it's a 50/50 game tbh and could go either way. 60/40 for Croatia if it wasn't for their two grueling 120 minutes games and if they came into this in better form.
They've got a much superior midfield so I expect them to dominate the ball and the passing stats. It's whether we can counter that like how Denmark & the Russians did and then take our chances. One thing's for sure for this game and for the final if we were lucky to get there, we can't have Sterling missing a hatful of chances.
I'm not a hater and I appreciate what he brings but god, he really has to start delivering for England what he just did for City.
ITV's programme starts now.
Genuinely bricking it tbh. :sick:
Really wish it was on the BBC than ITV.
This team have a surprising amount of calm to them.
Think we'll make the final but get done by France.
ITV revert to their stupid 4 pundit setup :doh:
I’m pumped for this! I have a very good feeling too, this young England team has surprised me. Not only that but they appear to have bags of character and a bit about them.
I think we will edge it tonight!
Come on England!
Keane, Neville, Wright and Dixon in the studio.
I think we will outrun them, our forwards can do serious damage to their defence which is very slow IMO.
I also think if we press and smother Modric and Rakitic like the Danes did then we will triumph tonight. Croatia are a decent team but they really struggle with the press, especially in Central Midfield.
I think Croatia have the players to beat the press. There's more of a chance there are spaces in midfield for Modric in this game on the counter attack, which is a bit of a worry.
Jacqui Oakley’s voice is worse than the worst sound in the world.
How is Ross Kemp? Calm?
Jimmy McNulty! :haha:
What the fuck did I do?
Feck off Wazza, they've already done more than you, they don't need your wishes.
Why do ITV have these weird interviews that makes me think I'm playing Oblivion/Fallout 3.
Fuck off Robbie Williams you tax-avoiding Putin Russian oligarch support turd!
Decent turn out in King's Landing by the looks of it.

Time for Sterling to deliver and Kane to get a Brace! Come on England!!!!!!!!!!!!
Mandzukic is a bit intense. :blink:
I'm not sure i buy all this 'croatia will be knackered' stuff, they've had three and a half days to take a rest, so we shouldn't bank on it
What will happen to the beer in Newcastle?
:rose:
Sounds like we have a lot of fans in the stadium.
ITV being sure they still include the women's team in any fact.
And it begins. :popcorn:
