UEFA Euro 2012

[NINE_HUNDRED]

Brilliant.

 

[MUSC4EVER]

Incredible! they should win best fans at the tournament award, they need to win something!!

 

[Akmuq]

The real reason the Irish fans were singing...

 

[MUSC4EVER]

 

[CAM]

Go Ukraine! Although I suppose I may have cursed the Irish a tad yesterday, still worth a shot .

 

[Matty]

Wouldn't like to be a player out there today with the thunder and lightning.

 

[MUSC4EVER]

During the french national anthem just then there was a bolt of lightning that made the tv screen turn blue for a splitsecond! an omen for the french!

 

[Touring Mars]

Wow... game halted due to lightning!

 

[CAM]

Yeah, the stadium screen was just flashing red. Would be helpful if they were in a retractable roof stadium. Ukraine looked good in those 5 minutes though.

 

[MUSC4EVER]

Dont think this has happened in a major tournament before!!

 

[PAWEL17]

This is pretty crazy. Huge thunderstorm, pouring down with rain. Too bad there's no roof.

 

[Matty]

Wonder what happens if the games gets called off, will the a replay be played? A draw given?

 

[MUSC4EVER]

Game to be played tomorrow if called off..

 

[Matty]

Oh, at 5 I would assume as there is already 2 games at 7:45 tomorrow.

Where are all the fans?

 

[MUSC4EVER]

Did you see those massive patches of standing water on the pitch! no sign of the rain slowing, its just bouncing of the ground!!

 

[Matty]

I'm watching France v England now

 

[Wiegert]

These conditions remind me of the match between Switzerland and Turkey in Basel 4 years ago. That turned out to be a pretty interesting match if I recall, and not just because of the poor weather, or the fact that the broadcast cut out a few times during the match.

 

[Touring Mars]

I'm watching France v England now

Anyone fancy a sweepstake...?

I'm going to go 1-1, Lescott first scorer...

What shall we say, £5 each?

 

[Matty]

Yeah, I'll go with Nasri to score the second.

And no decision on the game until 6BST or 8CET.

 

[TyrrellRacing]

Yeah, I'll go with Nasri to score the second.

And no decision on the game until 6BST or 8CET.

You went with Malouda, you can't change it now!!!!

Will this affect the England v Sweden game ?

 

[Matty]

Nope, worst case secnario is that we will have to change over from ITV about 70 minutes into the France game to go to BBC for the English game.

 

[Dennisch]

Game to be played tomorrow if called off..

Most likely that will not happen, the game needs to be played tonight.

And our weather guy just announced that the worst weather is gone now.

 

[Matty]

I think I heard a commentator say a game can be rescheduled 4 hours after it's called off. So maybe an early morning game.

EDIT: Or well late night for us.

EDITII: It will probably restart at 6 BST

 

[MUSC4EVER]

They are 2 hours ahead in ukraine..

 

[Matty]

I know. Anyway game restart in 12 minutes.

EDIT: Think will they play the National Anthems again
