Wales v England match thread

[Marvanelli]

Really don't want the Netherlands in the last 16.

Agree.

But If we do finish 2nd, then we potentially dodge France in the quarters.

Talk about getting ahead of ourselves mind...

I just want us to stay in the tournament for as long as possible. Would prefer for us to go out in the quarters to France, rather than be knocked out in the last 16 to the Netherlands.

If we go out in the last 16 the pitchforks will be out and no doubt the team will be labelled as flops, which will be a shame considering how much this England team has been able to inspire the nation in becoming interested in the national side again in recent years.

The hooliganism has started early in Llanymynech, a village straddling the Anglo-Welsh border.

Looks like the line up is:

Pickford

Walker Stones Maguire Shaw

Rice Henderson

Bellingham

Foden Kane Rashford

I dont mind that, two holding midfielders with two centre backs is sensible and will stop us being overran. Lets hope Rashford and Foden take advantage of there place in the team.

 

[TeaCider]

I think that line-ups pretty decent.

Hopefully we have a faster start than we did against USA.

 

[TeaCider]

If England top the group after tonight, and won in the Round of 16, we'd have a quarter-final on the same day as Middlesbrough play.

3pm Boro and 7pm England.

Hate rashford as a winger

Confirmed.

So there it is, Foden starts.

I imagine that there will be thousands now on stepladders through their loft hatches, fannying about trying to remove a noose from a beam before the coverage begins.

Confirmed.

Where’s the keeper, but worried about the goal swing here

 

[Jedi boro]

No Robbie savage either

So that’s something

 

[Ipad1977]

Nice to hear the crowd singing along to Pigbag in the stadium mind

 

[Glover_elbow]

Wales getting far too excited. I hope we d*ck them

Has anyone told them it’s not a singing contest

 

[DonTheKing]

Why is the full build up about Wales?

 

[Steer]

I'm just watching the BBC build up. Who are Wales playing exactly? Not mentioned the opposition once yet.

 

[DonTheKing]

Oh well maybe not cringey these build ups.

 

[Jedi boro]

Shearer is dieing to to say “we should beat these easy as they are ****”

isn’t he.

 

[TeaCider]

Quiet start.

Why is Tom Kerridge on co com duty
