Post by Yorick »

Surprised no mentions so far. I've been busy last few days so seen nowt yet.
Apart from pisstaking with Sweaty mates.

Currently in a very local Portuguese bar, surrounded by Russians watching Egypt lead Belgium.

Big surprise earlier by Spain being shit. They're my spare team :obscene-birdiedoublered:

Gonna be in this bar to watch the England game

Is it coming home?

We're watching but not getting particularly excited about any of it. Watched Spain earlier and what pisses me off is when the commentators keep going on about their star players and how great they are. Fcuk me, they couldn't beat Cape Verde. 🤷🏻‍♂️

The best ride I had on quiet roads was during Princess Di's funeral.

All the thugball matches are at night, so even if your team get to the final you'll have to enjoy the dark.

Only time I support Ingerland is when they play Scotland. Football really pisses me off, bent corrupt FIFA & Premier League,arse licking media...
The good thing we learned when Ingerland played in the Euros back in 1996 was that the roads were empty when they were playing so you could get out for some enthusiastic motorbiking fun whilst the sad twats were shouting at the telly. This time,due to them playing in Magaland unless you want to be riding at daft o'clock we don't even get the empty roads bonus.

I've looked at the results but am camping and hiking in the Sierra Nevada mountains this week, no telly. I'll pay more attention next week when I'm home but the kick off times are proper rubbish.
