Re: OT: Euro04
argh :-) Was trying to avoid seeing the result - wanted to watch it tonight... you can;t avoid it anywhere these days....
Still, no shame to see the Germans knocked out. At least England can;t lose to them on penalties in the semis now!

Re: OT: Euro04
Sorry 
It is still worth watching though. Unless you are German fan of course. But then I watched Russia-Spain and Russia-Portugal both live and taped

We have a Latvian here in the office. Other than Latvia, of course, he is for England too.

They have no reason to be sour and embaress themselves and their fans by touting ludicrous conspiracy theories.

From the sounds of it, keeping in mind I only have a vague idea, qoute 'What was particularly amusing was the way that the Italians, having struggled all evening, scored a brilliant winning goal in the Last two minutes of the game. As they were celebrating their victory, they heard the news that the Sweden/Denmark game had finished 2-2, and the result of their own match was irrelevant. And then they had to carry on playing...'
