These days you get arrested and thrown in jail if you say you're English.

I kind of wish England would win something because maybe it'd stop people from getting whipped into this wildly nationalistic franzy every time a major tournament comes along, but at the same time i also worry that if they were to win something it'd get even worse, especially with Johnson's flagwanking all over social media. 

Rafa joining Everton is nothing a sustained campaign of hatred through the medium of homemade A4 laminated signs can't fix. 

Yeah no complaints on Saka, he was outstanding against the Czechs. Leaving both Foden and Grealish out is sending my timelines spastic. 

Top trolling from Gareth.

That was the best evening of football ever. The Euros have really taken off, watch Southgate's flaccid, joyless England side bring crashing down to earth tonight. 

What a game.

Such a pity that Emma Hayes doesn't have a more appealing voice, her co-commentary is next level stuff.

Lost somewhere in the story of doing it for Eriksen from an emotional sense is the fact Denmark have done so well in their last three games without comfortably their best player.

Andreas Christensen has played every game!

Feels like we are living through Roy Keane's midlife crisis on ITV. 

I think so. He has rejected millions from Pepsi in the past. 

Scotland were abject. The BBC put no expense into their coverage either - just a couple of tables on a balcony and pundits that no-one would recognise saying not to expect anything from them this tournament because they are shit and have no right to be there.  

Very true, I may well have sacked off the prelims together if presented with my own card.

I am becoming a soft lad in my old age but I got a bit choked up after that Brandon Moreno win. The feel good story of the year so far in MMA.

If ever there was a fight to exemplify the careers of Leon Edwards and Nate Diaz this was it. Leon puts on an absolute clinic for 90% of the fight only for Nate to nearly snatch the win, and may well of done had he chose to follow up the shot that rocked Edwards, instead of flipping the bird etc. Regardless, he comes away from the fight he got battered in as some moral victor, whilst Leon has probably handed his title shot to Colby Covington with that minute or so of madness.

I enjoyed the performance from Israel, it was a clinic and re-established him as top dog at middleweight after the loss to Big Jan. He made Vettori look very ordinary. 

I agree with Wandy on the crowd, they sucked. Good main card with the exception of the Damien Maia fight which should have been swapped with Dober vs Ridell.

Can't believe we've made it to three days without mention of the test, let alone this...

Magnificent. Should be the regulation cut for all military medium, lower middle order sloggers. 

Oh yeah, forgot to mention I'll be there tomorrow in a box, quaffing the finest free champagne and canapes and no doubt shitting myself on the train back to Slough.

The Bromley Boys was a massive source of angst among the non league hardcore* on it's release.

We will hold the fort with football's elite until you and Deadpool join us at Europe's top table.

Another great Champion's League victory that I would like to devote to our strong connection with Wrexham and Wales. We are a part of a new era taking over football from the elite - Mickey Thomas, Joey Jones, Gareth Hall, Eddie Niedwezsky(?), Mark Hughes, Ethan Ampadu, managed by an early 80s era John Neal. Learn to live with it.

Got my second jab brought forward a couple of weeks and at my local centre. It's definitely worth being proactive and checking back with the NHS site if you are in a rush to get it sorted or have an appointment at a venue miles away.

Buffalo Stance is a great song ruined by association with Jamie Oliver. 

Had my first dose of AstricaZenica this morning. I had it in one of the most successful temporary facilities in the country and it all went like clockwork. Walked in to avoid the queuing and having to hang around with the proles after. I didn't go to McDonald's because I took a vow sometime ago never to eat another over the whole murdering the planet thing. Sorry lads. I had a bacon baguette from Greggs instead. It was good.

I feel I am entering the arena of the unwell now though. Just brought the washing in and I was near paralysed by some really intense chills. The heating is on and I've necked a few cocodimal. I'll be fine. The irony is, this is the first time I've felt ill since February 2020, when I'm fairly certain I had the virus. This is the longest I've ever gone without catching something which shows the measures in place seem to have worked for me at least. Roll on September when I'm sharing an air conditioned office again with a bunch of jobsworth cunts who choose to soldier on through these things and infect everyone else, when they really should be on the sofa in their duvet all week playing Fallout 4. 

I posted that Dismasters track in the Hip Hop thread a year ago or so. The holy grail for me now is to find a bass tab for it.
