We were. It was always going to be a big ask anyway. Truth is we have a squad of workmanlike players and the step up is a bit too much for them.
I wonder how England are going to fare? They're in an easier group than we are. And this time there isn't the hype that there usually is when an English team is in a championship. Perhaps that might be to their benefit.

The England team visited an orphanage in Poland today. "It's heartbreaking to see their sad little faces with no hope" said Igor, aged 6 from Warsaw.

Re: The FOOTBALL thread
Being realistic ... we are a limited bunch of players , playing against the current European and World champions - a light loss would have been unexpected.

Re: The FOOTBALL thread
Yeah, getting anything from these games was always going to be a big big ask. What's galling is the manner of the losses. The stupid mistakes, the players who didn't look like they were even trying... I hope the supporters who travelled out there are having the time of their lives when they're not in the stadium
