all the CCP's fault, placing HK in such a bad time zone

I've got tickets and am expecting nothing, so it'll either be a 0-0 borefest or an absolute classic.

 

[Furball]

Have to be in the ground between half 5 and 6. Great.

6-4 to Sweden

 

[Furball]

Hope so.

Right down the front in the Rangers end (to the left behind the goal as you look at it on TV) Regret not bringing some sort of banner to hang out and get confiscated.

Yeah, we'd like to have seen you on the telly. Anyway, hope you enjoy it.

Hope for a godawful 0-0 draw

@Furball is the poor crowd because nobody in Scotland cares about this game or because Sturgeon still believes we should be in Lockdown

12,000 is the COVID capacity which is less than a quarter of the stadium.

It definitely feels fuller than it looks on TV

 

[Lillian Thomson]

This is a decent game in the circumstances. Sendings off, kicking bits out of each other and using up maximum energy is a bit of a bonus.

 

[BoyBrumby]

Nadgers.

To come so close to pens and have it snatched away one minute into injury time of the second half of extra time is pretty galling.

 

[Furball]

Easy semi final for England, thought Ukraine were pretty poor for the most part.
