Dear Wigs,

Yes, it takes away from the celebration, we have the Hibs debacle, not nice, what should have been a very joyous occasion has turned into a very sad day for Football, all sorts of accusations and threats :(

I will now read posts very carefully and then using the two God given brains cells that I have reply as if I am talking to a two year old, yes that should suffice as a gentle reminder✝️✝️✝️❤️

Still at least this Hibs story is heart warming

Dear Sane,

Absolutely brilliant and this is the kind of stuff it should all be about, the Hibs team lifting the cup was emotional even for me ( from Edinbugger and Celtic B team ) I do hope the SFA don't punish the Hibs to severely and the actual small minority who caused violence are the one's targeted, and also the bloody SFA should take a long hard look at themselves, this was their showcase >:(

A friend of mine, who is a huge Hibs fan, was at the game with her daughter, and missed the winning goal after her daughter managed to cut her leg on the seat. So when the goal went in they were in the medical room.

And a bit of Hibs fans singing Sunshine on Leith. The full Caledonian antisyzygy from the 'shame' of the pitch invasion (though I want it to be properly investigated outside tabloid headlines) to this spirited and spiritual bonding, with its nod to Gonzo's and the Proclaimers' 'chief' in thirty minutes.

I think the Euros belong to 15/16. Unless they need their own thread.  :-\

Will a thread be strong enough to trip up the non-English players?

Reports are that Ibrahimovic's deal to sign for Man U is all but done and dusted. I like him, mad as a box of frogs. I think though that the EPL could have done with him three or four years ago - is he past his prime now?

Yes, I like Zlatan, although probably not many miles left on the clock.   The thought of him and Mourinho in the dressing room is quite amusing - the egos have landed.   

Wow, cautious Roy really throwing everything in the air, if he does six changes to England.  Hope it works.
They were the footprints of a gigantic hound!

Whilst Vardy's potential move to Arsenal hasn't worked out.

Good thing too. He's already 29. It wouldn't be a good investment.

Well here is hoping Wales and England get through. Have to say England been impressive in two games so far. Wales made it to a finals in my lifetime anything more is a bonus!

All three Welsh goals were offside by miles.

Dear Little England,

Shut up about Brexit Gonners, who do I support tonight, the underdogs or the mighty England, I have always been partial to a bit of underdog :o :o :o.

Anyway don't under estimate Iceland, they are a highly organised team, it will be a great game ;)

Very good advice and I predict we'll ignore it and lose by a goal to nil or on penalties.

Russia were dismal, Wales population 3 million, Russia 150 million, so bad I think you might even have lost if you were playing Scotland, there again no they are not that bad. :)

England were laughable. I've seen this so many times though, with different players and management but the same problems - an inability to pass to a player a few feet away. no movement, shooting wildly from stupid places, unable to get crosses beyond the first defender, players who think they are better than they are. I don't watch the Premiership but if Kane is a top striker then it must be a poor league - he wanders around looking like a zombie at times. None of them looked like highly paid professionals to me.
