Nice that they are still in. Perhaps the Euro will now be safe and we can look at cleaning up our own financial shit :roll:

Why is Greece qualifying a negative? They're through and deserve to qualify imo, Russia threw away a golden chance to not only qualify but to also win the group. Greece deserve a lot of credit, yes I know they maybe a little defensive but remember they came from behind against the hosts with 10 men and today have qualified when nobody realistically gave them a chance. Great character from the Greeks, no character from Russia. Greece are worthy in my eyes!

Judging by the highlights Greece deserved to win as well!

Disgraceful that their Captain was booked for a dive and it should clearly have been a penalty.

I'm doing the dream team thing on the Sun website with a few friends, and I used the first transfer window (which opened on Wednesday and closed at half 7 tonight) to transfer in 3 players including Dzagoev and Kerzhakov, who are now going home :evil: I could've bought Gomez, but now I'll have to wait until Monday, by which time Germany's group fixtures will have finished. He could've scored another double by Monday!

You must have watched the wrong game fella.

6 attempts, only 2 on target only 30% posession.
Scored against run of play and put 11 men behind the ball.

Negative football and zzzz viewing for the neutral.

how is it negative when they've based the qualifying on head-to-head results meaning you HAVE to peform and win!? sick of the slagging off of us greeks all the time, the tactic works for a lot of country's in the past few years and more so england at the moment! the old saying of it only takes a second to score a goal, a goal can change a game etc etc. well russia had 90 mins to score against a 'poor' greek team, who are 15th in the world btw, and blew every shot they had. greeks made one of the only shots count and thats what its about. wed be happy if cardiff played like that over 48 games and got promoted. also they should have definitely penalty so likely should have been 2-0. they had a obvious goal ruled out for offside against the czech so should have been 2-2 and im sure there was one in the first game too which meant we would have won and well clear of the group, not to mention the ref red card. theyve had a lot of injustice against them in this group and they've done well to come out the other side! goes without saying germany will give us a hammering in the next round though! :lol:

As a neutral, aside from Ireland, you have been the worst team to watch in this tournament.

I hope the Krauts put 6 on you for crimes against football.

No, being force fed England is the first negative, Pub team Ireland is the 2nd and then Greece.

Aint watched any of the games involving greece! Turned over every time england have scored, and turned the volume down when ireland are playing because of the commentators having a wankfeist over how "great" the plastic irish fans are even though there team are getting arse'raped! Roy keane is spot'on with his comments about them.

The Paddies are the new Tartan Army.

Their team is shit but hey nevermind the fans are enjoying themselves. :roll:

Jim Beglin should be banned from commentating on Irish games as well. I was cringing at him so much the other night I was b*stard freezing. Had to put the heating on in June ffs.
