Any ideas for tactics tonight? I think Gareth Southgate just needs to say to the team ‘Go out there. Get your heads down. Go out and score some goals.’ Remember, this isn't just about football. According to the Internet this is also the culture wars final. Depending on which side of the fence you are, it's either Kane, Sterling and other racist old white men trying to cheat the noble and virtuous EU, or it's the brave warriors of Britain going to war with the evil covid-spreading foreigners.

Sir Harold needs a strategy for when Big Chiellini-y does that laughing and joking thing and gives him a big cuddle. It shit Jordi Alba right up.

St. Harold, Excalibur aloft, will wait for chiellini to do his grab/hug thing at kick off, then simply whisper in his ear "hey Giorgio, at lunchtime earlier, I popped my chopper in your spaghetti sauce".
With the horror in Giorgio's eyes. St. Harold knows the trophy is coming home.

I thought it was about thoughtful Gareth Southgate and his principled boys uniting a broken Britain?

Euros Culture Final: The Italians have a venerable history. We can't exactly deny that with scamander marching around shouting "Sinister, Dexter" (on his excellent website www.ancientblogger.com/), but their Roman empire was smaller than ours, and try finding a decent curry in Venice...

I want the Italian team to be truly villainous: Whispering to each other, cooking up plots, stealing free kicks. With England winning by staying up in the penalty box, jumping over tackles. Heads up, chests out football.

Any ideas for tactics tonight? We're meeting in the hotel bar, then popping over to Amipals party. You drew the short straw and need to wax rolling before he gets changed.

According to sky news Harry and Meghan (last name not provided) have been given an award for limiting their family to two children. That's news. Actual news. Talking from experience you never know if a third is gonna come, will they have to give it back?

The cat told me we're going to lose, and lose bad. must be a malfunction in the logic circuits, unfortunately there are no refunds, have you tried turning it off then on again, or you could try hitting it with a hammer.

What if the Italians steal Gareth Southgate’s lucky knitted polka-dot tie? I wouldn't put it past them.

I hope Gareth Southgate blindsides Chiellini with a pre-emptive cuddle.

Just sorted out the FF team, basically I'll end up with zero points as they all cancel each other out.
As to the actual game, I didn't relax in the Denmark game until we were 3-0 up, so tonight is going to be awful.
No idea who is going to win, maybe just going to bed and finding out the result tomorrow morning is the best strategy.
