[Magrat Garlick]

LOL! Good effort marc

£8 + £13.50 + £3.25 + £2.63 + £1.61 = £28.99 from £7 isn't too bad

yep ive jumped on the Greek Bandwagon

 

[Simon]

im shocked actually, i really cant believe Greece won, all in all i was extremely dissapointed with the tournament, im all for the top players and the top teams playing each other in crunch matches, well done to greece anyway, maybe id be happier had i taken some of the 150-1 on them!

Well, Greece is the top team now. They beat France, fair and square, and even deserved. They beat the Czechs, probably deserved (didn't watch the game). And they beat Portugal, quite well deserved win too. It's not their fault the top players were awful

 

[Simon]

yes they won the european championships, but i dont think they are the best team, well done to them, they deserved to win the competition, but i dont think they are better than some of the teams they beat.

 

[ash chaulk]

do they go straight to the confederations cup???

if so good to see Australia beat em

 

[Simon]

yeh they probably would hey, i think we can give em are run for their money

Greeces' performance actually got me thinking about Aus, IMO them winning Euro 2004 is about the same as us making the semis of the 2006 world cup, thats unlikely to happen, but wouldnt it be great!

You've got to actually qualify for the World Cup first!

Considering you can't even beat the Solomon Islands...

 

[Simon]

Considering you can't even beat the Solomon Islands...

yeh, but we can beat england!

 

[chris.hinton]

yep they did 3-1 in march 2003

we will get there, this time we actually have depth, we are starting to play more games as a team and hopefully our top players will be in good form, if so we really should beat the 5th placed south american team whoever it is....

 

[Simon]

yep they did 3-1 in march 2003

12th February 2003 to be exact chris..... goal scorers Popovic, Kewell and Emerton for those who need their memory refreshed!

 

[marc71178]

Meaningless friendly...

 

[Simon]

our draw with the solomon islands was a meaningless game for us as we already were guaranteed to be through, not to mention our top players didnt play.
the same cant be said for aus v eng....

 

[Neil Pickup]

James Beattie played - is that not enough for you to realise that it wasn't that strong a side.

Plus, it wasn't actually a qualifier.

So, the same can't be said - that game was more meaningless than the Solomons match.

 

[Simon]

James Beattie was leading goalscorer in the premier league at the time, u can say its a friendly as much as you want but as it stands beckham, scholes, owen etc... all played and harry kewell made rio ferdinand look damn right silly.....

 

[Neil Pickup]

Ramprakash and Hick lead the run-scoring lists all the time.

Beattie's the same. FTB
