EURO's . . . . the Armchair Critics thread.

Three Wales goals without Bale getting one. I wasn't expecting that.

[Edge]

Great game

[car147]

Well done Wales, fantastic game!

[dagl]

I wasn't planning to ever watch a game of football again after England's debacle!
So glad I did tho, Great game!

[Raffles]

WOW... just bloody WOW!

What a great game, and so many congrats to Wales.

The difference between England and Wales players... pride, character, and HEART! ... of which the England players have none.

Are you watching Rooney & Co, on your yachts and crystal embellished toilets?

It's a shame Ramsey and others are excluded from the semis, but I can still see them getting pass Portugal... go on, you can do it with that team spirit.

[Perpetua]

One of the best football matches I've watched in a long time . . . . with a very well deserved win for Wales!


That's how to do it England . . . . . .

Strange to me.
Most of the Welsh players are in Premier league teams, playing with the English team players.
Why are the English players such tarts, yet the Welsh play for the team?
Why such a big culture difference between the English and Welsh players, they are all rich and famous?
Just shows what good management and team work can achieve.
A pleasure to watch.

I doubt the English players were watching, I doubt they care now they are home

That's the heart of it I think . . . . with a good dollop of commitment in the mix.

All that and understanding how bloody lucky they are to be international footballers.
They played with smiles on their faces not growling frowns.
Playing for your country should be the highlight of your life not a chore.
English monkeys could learn a lot.

  Wales have shown England what passion for your country means 

[Deleted]

Yay well done Whales

[X&Y]

Great game. Well done Wales

Think they have a good chance against Portugal as well.

Portugal have been very average at best.

[BrenD]

At least England had a goalscorer in the quarter finals.

[BrenD]

Make that three goalscorers. Williams, Robson-Kanu and Vokes were all born in England and qualify for Wales as they have a Welsh grandparent. Not a Welsh parent to be seen.

Robson-Kanu even featured for England u20s before switching allegiances, probably realising that he wouldn't make the u21s let alone the full side.

Were I a good solid pro, but not good enough to play for England, that would be it. No international career. The Irish FA could do a bit of digging and notice that two of my grandparents were Irish, but any approaches would be politely declined. I couldn't wear the shirt of a country that isn't my own.

But Wales more than deserved to win, even if England did give them a bit of help.

Me to . . . . and Portugal have!

I'm enjoying watching the goal hi-lights and fans celebrating just as much this morning!
