Thank god for Holland. If it wasn't for them Europe would have been innundated next summer with short, fat, ginger-haired, pasty-faced, hairy little men in skirts, throwing up, pissing in alleyways, blowing into a bag and calling it music, eating fried sheep's guts, and then nominating themselves the "best fans in the world" because they cry the most when their team gets beat (in the first round usually).
Having said that, watch and laugh as the Dutch try to get all 20,000 of their tight-arsed supporters into one taxicab (and no tip for the driver either).
The Dutch always self-destruct once they get there anyway. Was it Davids or Seedorf who got sent home in 1996? Kluivert & RvN have been dissing each other all week.
Early betting...get your money on Spain to finally come good, RvN to edge out Raul as top scorer, England to lose in Quarter Finals to Italy, who lose to Spain in semis. Portugal also out in quarters. France & Czechs in other semi, Germans also out in quarters.
Russia won't make it out of the group.
That's a bet worth placing, you'd make a fortune on that...
Pot one: Portugal France Sweden Czech Republic
Pot two: England, Germany, Italy, Spain
Pot three: Holland, Croatia, Denmark, Russia
Pot four: Bulgaria, Latvia, Greece, Switzerland.
will england win even 1? =-)
william - I think you're mmisunderstood the pots. The teams in pot two do not play each other. There will be four groups, each with one team from each pot.
i was crying my eyes out last night... *sniff*
but anyway, i suppose the dutch learned from the 1st leg match on saturday. btw, i loved that match, it was just nice to watch.

At least they dont start riots like some "fans" do.... not that I give a flying f*ck tho
Last Saturday morning I saw a flock of pigs in the sky, heading south for winter. Later that afternoon I saw a man with a goatee beard and horns driving a snow plough. That night the moon appeared to be a pale shade of blue.
Thank heavens things are back to normal again and we Scots can go back to what we do the best. Wallowing in self pity and getting pissed.
fatty.
Lets be fair, Scotland were never going to beat Holland were they. They could have beaten them 10-0 at Hampden and the Dutch would still have scraped it back in Holland. Scotland just aren't good enough-it's the Welsh that should be kicking themselves, after all-Russia are hardly Brazil, and the Welsh team is as good as it's ever going to get. Could be another 60 years before they get to a final now.
I agree with Freddie B - the Scotland v Holland result was a foregone conclusion after the Dutch got a wake up call at Hampdem Park - but the Wales result was a bigger shock imo
The reason the Dutch won Wednesday was because they decided to play Ruud up front without Kluivert,its blatently obvious they cannot play together so the better of the two was picked and what a result.Will they win Euro 2004?, well, they are like England,Italy and Spain, well overdue.
Shade Berti, alles ist vorbei!!! *LOL* Sorry, in a way it's a little victory on the Germans, you know how the Dutch and Germans feel about echt other at soccer..(or sometimes in general!)
Anyway, glad we won. We played great, didn't expected to win actually...
