    That was a cracking strike, back to the Murray match.

    What the hell, flick a channel for a couple of minutes and a goal is scored.

    You can't be happy about the size of that crowd either.

    Tell you what, I was a little dismissive of him a few weeks back but Ally McCoist is actually one of the better colour commentators we've got.

    Given that cycling's entire annual budget is probably eclipsed by a single kickball team, I'm wondering if we're a bit harsh on Carlton Kirby...

    It is a morale dilemma for me. Now come on Murray finish it!

    I never would have thought the Swiss would pull it back.

    Christ! That was close. I was just about to say the French will get this in extra time.

    I'm so conflicted. I dearly love(d) living in both of these countries. Can't they both win..?

    Dan Roan just did his introduction on the BBC News that he is at Wembley ahead of England's historic match against Germany. What is historic about it or is it just Dan Roan being a tw*t as usual?

    France would look a lot more solid if they played a second defender. One at the back looks a bit stretched at times.

    Whoever wrote that bit about coaching and losing most goals in transition I knew it was true but since they posted it I cannot unsee it

    That's Jose's philosophy. International manager probably his next step.

    Roy Keane sounds more like Sean Kelly with each passing year.

    Rafa would be an ideal England manager.

    Is there anyone in the crowd who is actually ugly? They make the Wembly crowd look like orcs.
