Can’t believe how s**t the fixture lists have been

after the round of 16. Only just realised if England and France win their groups, they can’t meet in the final, and also England would then play their QF on the Saturday (Wimbledon FFS), not the Friday , with 2nd meaning the Friday (I think!). And 2nd probably means Germany last 16 unless I’ve f**ked it up.

    - What an awful lot of tosh this is. (Other Football) - Legacy Fan, Jun 14, 10:20:05
      - hi Gareth (n/m) (Other Football) - Bristol Graham, Jun 14, 11:29:11
      - I agree that MonkeyPuzzle is being overly harsh (Other Football) - SimonOTBC, Jun 14, 11:00:01
        
        We had quite kind runs in both tournaments where we reached the semis and final (Other Football) - jamesward, Jun 14, 11:06:35
        
        Yes, I'm not doing him down. I think he's achieved a lot (Other Football) - SimonOTBC, Jun 14, 11:07:31
      - I'd say Foden is in the same bracket as Bellingham (Other Football) - jamesward, Jun 14, 10:36:34
        
        He's a classic example of "talent". He does it for Man City but have you ever seen him (Other Football) - Legacy Fan, Jun 14, 10:43:42
        
        I don't think Bellingham has justified the hype for England tbh (Other Football) - jamesward, Jun 14, 10:55:50
        
        Now, in the CL final I think it was the manager's fault (Other Football) - Legacy Fan, Jun 14, 11:01:02
        
        To add to that though.... (Other Football) - Legacy Fan, Jun 14, 10:53:12
        
        Southgate does have a role in that though (Other Football) - SimonOTBC, Jun 14, 10:53:04
        
        Yes. So in that respect.... (Other Football) - Legacy Fan, Jun 14, 10:58:20
        
        ^^^ This. He took a squad where his best midfield option off the bench was Eric Dier (Other Football) - megson, Jun 14, 11:24:01
        
        Yep (Other Football) - SimonOTBC, Jun 14, 11:30:34
        
        Both defeats to Belgium were meaningless (Other Football) - norwaay, Jun 14, 11:54:28
        
        Fair enough. But not sure it changes anything (Other Football) - SimonOTBC, Jun 14, 11:58:43
        
        We beat Colombia (Other Football) - norwaay, Jun 14, 12:10:03
        
        We drew with them, tbf, and won on penalties. Objectively, it wasn't great (Other Football) - SimonOTBC, Jun 14, 12:21:27
        
        It's fair to say we were very unlucky against top opponents in (Other Football) - jamesward, Jun 14, 12:14:30
        
        We were unlucky (very?) against Germany twice (Other Football) - norwaay, Jun 14, 12:23:11
        
        Is that really evidence of a transformation in tournament football though? (Other Football) - SimonOTBC, Jun 14, 12:36:13
        
        And....the only KO round of the Euros was a Final until 1984 when semis were introduced (Other Football) - SimonOTBC, Jun 14, 12:43:49
        
        Ok then (Other Football) - norwaay, Jun 14, 12:47:19
        
        In fact the only Euros which didn't have semi-finals was 1980. (n/m) (Other Football) - norwaay, Jun 14, 12:49:48
        
        Ah, fair enough. I didn't go back any further than that (n/m) (Other Football) - SimonOTBC, Jun 14, 12:51:41
        
        To be honest (Other Football) - norwaay, Jun 14, 12:52:53
        
        Yes, it is incredibly strong evidence (Other Football) - norwaay, Jun 14, 12:42:44
        
        I suppose so (Other Football) - SimonOTBC, Jun 14, 12:49:31
        
        My fundamental issue with the Southgate narrative (Other Football) - norwaay, Jun 14, 12:52:11
        
        Karen Carney wrote just that in the Guardian Euros preview (Other Football) - jamesward, Jun 14, 15:47:38
        
        I'm not in that camp (Other Football) - SimonOTBC, Jun 14, 12:56:27
        
        At least we actually beat major nations now though (Other Football) - norwaay, Jun 14, 13:04:41
        
        Yeah, Germany in the knoockouts is the only time i can remember beating a major nation (Other Football) - SimonOTBC, Jun 14, 13:18:56
        
        Good question (Other Football) - norwaay, Jun 14, 14:40:31
        
        Unlucky v the Argies with Beckham’s daft red (Other Football) - jamesward, Jun 14, 12:32:39
        
        In that case we were very much not unlucky (Other Football) - norwaay, Jun 14, 12:37:20
        
        Has southgate won the group in all 3 tournaments? (n/m) (Other Football) - megson, Jun 14, 14:33:10
        
        Won the group at the last two tournaments (Other Football) - norwaay, Jun 14, 14:44:08
        
        (Sorry... 24 between 1968 and 2016) (n/m) (Other Football) - norwaay, Jun 14, 12:25:20
        
        Yes, I can't really comment on that as I'm not really a Southgate critic (Other Football) - SimonOTBC, Jun 14, 11:03:19
    - Second rate defence with no natural left back (Other Football) - norwaay, Jun 14, 09:21:41
      - I haven't been paying attention - is Shaw not fit to start? (n/m) (Other Football) - jamesward, Jun 14, 09:27:35
        
        No (Other Football) - norwaay, Jun 14, 09:32:08
        
        This is not ideal (n/m) (Other Football) - jamesward, Jun 14, 10:17:53
        
        I think semi-finals is our ceiling (n/m) (Other Football) - norwaay, Jun 14, 10:55:02
        
        fuckoffselwyns - we will shit them all! (n/m) (Other Football) - Jumbo1, Jun 14, 11:13:25
        
        Yep (n/m) (Other Football) - jamesward, Jun 14, 11:07:07

  - Can’t believe how shit the fixture lists have been (Other Football) - SCC 28, Jun 14, 08:58:06
    - This is good - but you may well need a free trial (Other Football) - norwaay, Jun 14, 09:20:42
      - Yes that’s what I eventually worked out (Other Football) - SCC 28, Jun 14, 09:28:37
