Stunning group this one.

Poland might be fairly decent though, backing them and Russia to get through.

sledger · 09-05-2012, 08:03 AM

Will be forced to cheer on Greece due to my affiliations. Is it possible for them to end up playing England?

Pothas · 09-05-2012, 08:06 AM

Not until semis at the earliest so no.

sledger · 09-05-2012, 08:10 AM

Haha shame, that would have been entertaining. Not sure if their style has improved much since 2004, but provided it has, I hope they do well. Think Greek people could do with something to cheer about etc...

And because Sotiris Ninis and Sokratis Papastathopoulos are great on Football Manager as well, obviously.

GIMH · 10-05-2012, 12:45 AM

Greek Food is pretty good too

sledger · 10-05-2012, 12:51 AM

True that. There's a Greek restaurant next to my house, called "My Big Fat Greek Restaurant", I am yet to visit it.

Samuel_Vimes · 08-06-2012, 08:19 AM

There's a couple of hyped youngsters from Greece now...Ninis was hyped a bit two years ago and the Guardian just went ape**** over Fetfazidis. And Papastathopoulos is rated in Germany.

Worried about their keepers though.

sledger · 08-06-2012, 08:22 AM

Kyriakos Papadopoulos is meant to be an exciting prospect as well apparently. In library at the moment, eagerly anticipating leaving the dissertation to go home and watch the match.

Johnners · 08-06-2012, 10:17 AM

Geez that was close, Poland looking quite good so far.

EDIT: GOAL!!! Quality

grecian · 08-06-2012, 10:39 AM

Was it a good goal, I wouldn't ****ing know, because I had TIVO put in by Virgin media earlier today, so naturally I haven't got any TV working at all now, spiffing

You've not seen much less of the game than the referee. No wonder the Greeks are spitting blood.

sledger · 08-06-2012, 10:52 AM

Shocking. Really dreadful. Feel sorry for Papastathopoulos, did nowt wrong.

Don't think Greece have actually been as bad as the BBC is making out either. Granted they had that period at the back of ten minutes or so when they conceded, but they've not been awful.

Yeah, Mark Bright being typically insightful as usual. Wish they'd get shot of him, he's so dire.
