Euro 2012

[Con M]

I'm an Australian of Greek heritage so I'm biased, but do other forumites agree that was a dead-set penalty on the Greek captain in the match against Russia?

OK, he protested TOO strongly against that injustice and now he's suspended against the Germans in the quarter-finals. But he is a real force & will be sorely missed against Greece's financial masters..

[The Kop]

Yeh it was but Karagounis' reputation for diving proceeds him, he's probably the worst i've ever seen.
Refs should judge each action individually but they're only human after all.

[ruud]

well....add to the conversation by expanding....i know of the Italy situation...others???

holland lost to bulgaria before they wont the 1988euro

the same happened again this time

[Željko Jurin]

Seriously, you can't be really thinking that Greece can go all the way, are you ?

[levendi]

Greece has mirechance getting further than those faaarken croats, they will get thumped by Spain mr urine

Always been the case looking at the quality of your group.

But as for winning it, your chances are as good as ours...sweet FA!

No, they can't Z.J.

But that's what I kept saying in 2004 as they kept knocking one country after another off. Why, oh why didn't I put a few dollars down on them that year, albeit on a smaller scale, than a Londonite who backed them with 5,000 pounds at 150/1?

Assuming it's Germany they meet.

the fact the Germany helped Greece by bailing them out?

Yeah Greece needs some payback!

[Faith No More]

LOL ! Greeks should be happy getting thru , whoever they meet.
The Germans will be a wee bit better than their group opponents & without Karagounis they will struggle I fear.
Shouldn't bag the Croats, they have done well so far in a pretty strong group ( bar the Irish ).
If the Greeks can beat Russia, then Croatia can sneak a draw with a Spanish team not yet in 2nd gear.

How have the Germans bailed Greece out?. Why dont Germany get out of the Euro themselves and go back to the Deutchmark? Answer?..because German products will be worth triple what they are worth now and their own industry would collapse. Germany is screwing Greece to ensure a low Euro and ensuring German jobs stay in Germany.

Bail out???? pppfffttttt

The greeks have a history of not remembering history but didn't realised it worked so quickly.

[Swannsong's Rejects]

I hope Ukraine win their final game.

[God is an Englishman]

I hope Ukraine win their final game.

As long as sweden beat france by more than they win by then I don't think I'll care.

You would if Sweden won 4-2 and Ukraine 1-0.

Greece has mirechance getting further than those faaarken croats, they will get thumped by Spain mr urine

I didn't suggest that we will get further then you Einstein, my remark was directed at a few of you actually thinking you are going to win it ....

Your Capt and best player is out for the Quarter final yeh?

[ADEL.GOONERS]

dose russia have a two goal difference on the greeks or have i got it wrong

[Juventino]

dose russia have a two goal difference on the greeks or have i got it wrong

Head to head is the first decider so even though Russia had a +GD, the win gives Greece the edge.

[Con M]

The greeks have a history of not remembering history

Oh yes we do. War reparations from Germany overdue (plus interest).

[Faith No More]

Thought this was about football, not about what happened in the war ?

[PASC]

i thought German war repats were actually paid off in mid 2010... only took 65 years...

[ADEL.GOONERS]

thanks but remember football is football and has nothing to do with war although you probably no that

Doesn't matter if he is out or not the rest of the team will lift cos they know the feeling of winning, not like your mob. After the thumping Spain gives them it will be one slide down with the coach leaving and player retirements. Cmon HELLAS
