GaelicFox Posted 11 May 2016 Share Posted 11 May 2016 Since the English lads have a thread maybe the rest of us should have one too , after all one of us 3 is bound to go further than Woy's Awmy Think 80/1 each way Wales is worth £2.50 eachway !

Guest MattP Posted 11 May 2016 Share Posted 11 May 2016 Wales certainly have a big chance of getting out the group, we will struggle as per usual under Hodgson (though we'll get out the group) with his refusal to take the team into a new era and Russia are no great shakes at all. Northern Ireland will do well to get a point in a group that contains Poland, Ukraine and Germany. Eire are probably fighting it out with Sweden for a chance to make the third spot as Belgium and Italy should do enough to claim the top two spots, they'll need to win a match though as one or two points won't be enough in third. It's a farce really that 16 out of 24 make the Quarter Finals, it shouldn't be harder to go out than through. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kevinparr71 Posted 11 May 2016 Share Posted 11 May 2016 We have to hope everyone of our players plays to his maximum I think we will finish second in the group behind England Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest MattP Posted 11 May 2016 Share Posted 11 May 2016 Is the group stage 4 or 5 teams? Four teams in six groups, top two through and the four best third place finishers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ScouseFox Posted 11 May 2016 Share Posted 11 May 2016 wales . portugal have had one sensational player and ten other alright players and have proven you need more than one world class player in international football. wales have kingy and then what? just some championship rabble trying not to fall over all around him. probably get out the group in third place with one win vs russia but wouldn't back them to progress any further than that.

ScouseFox Posted 11 May 2016 Share Posted 11 May 2016 don't really see the issue with it. few more teams than normal, get some weird teams involved and some smaller nations and everyone gets an extra game. the euros had become a bit boring when it was obvious most the teams who would qualify and you could probably name 6 or 7 of the 8 quarter finalists before the qualification had even started. england portugal italy spain germany france and holland just revolving most years (except 2004 which was a really good euros imo). it might not be cream of the crop but iceland v czech republic or some shit with everyone giving their all will be way better than spain passing it around and winning 1-0 against croatia every year.

If Wales finish 2nd though, they play the 2nd place team from Group F (which is Iceland, Austria or Hungary provided Portugal win the group). I'd then fancy Wales to beat any of those three.

Guest MattP Posted 11 May 2016 Share Posted 11 May 2016 How can you have 16 teams in the quarter finals? Apologies We have a last 16, in a tournament that starts with 24, which is ridiculous and will result in about the half the Group stage matches being totally pointless.

Obviously I knew what you meant I was just being a dick Im not sure I agree that there will be loads of pointless matches. Surely if there are more positions to play for then there will be less 'dead rubber' matches especially as each higher position means facing an 'easier' opponent.

filbertway Posted 11 May 2016 Share Posted 11 May 2016 I do like that pretty much every group will have something riding on it for each team. It actually probably makes the the tournament more entertaining. Still can't get over Griezmann top scorer and France to win being 33/1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
