Favourites to win this game? They may be denied ;-)

Russia still giving it their all and a great chance went begging there

2-2.

Surely Russia won’t win on penners again?

Great for England that they will play against a team that is almost with no fuel left after two games with 120 minutes.

Kinell FIFA couldn't make it easier for England to get to the final, could they?

Let's see who we face Wednesday eh?

Dah.

Hope it’s Russia


I'd normally agree but I've got Croatia in sweep and banking on them coming third :lol:

that would be an impressive Spanish territorial acquisition number 22 :?

Just read that the Croatian coach has stated that our very own Raheem Sterling is their biggest threat. If he can see it, like other top coaches have, why don't the rest of the country see it?

OK, you can be a sheep, led by the media campaign, but when you see what he brings on the pitch, there's no pride lost in saying you were wrong; you cunts!

Well after a lot of toing and froing, it looks like I am driving to Russia and back for the semi final. Can't do the final as my last is graduating and I wouldn't be back in time.

Only a 4000 mil round trip. Leaving tomorrow with a mate and sharing the driving.

OMFG, are you mad! That is one hell of a trip. Done a few long journeys myself and know what it's like to drive across Europe, just not that far. You'll be a vegetable by time you get there, got to be at least a day and half non-stop and when you get a sleep it'll not feel like that as you want to keep an eye on the road for the driver.

Stay safe pal and if agree with each other that if you're both fucked take a break and get a couple of hours. Good luck, it will be immense.

Good conversation starter, 'So, Gary Neville and Rio Ferdinand think Raheem has been brilliant?'. That'll keep him awake ;-)

Good luck pal.
