dave Posted June 12, 2016 Share Posted June 12, 2016 Just leaving hotel now for a long lunch with a few heart starters. We topped our group are playing with confidence so hopefully we can get something out of the match today. going to be tough but we really have nothing to lose. The atmosphere is unbelievable and we'll have more than double the amount of fans in Lyon on Thursday! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EddardStark Posted June 12, 2016 Author Share Posted June 12, 2016 Two reasons for me backing NI. Strong family connections and basic principle of backing the underdog. Still stuck a fiver on Poland -1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Support them, don't support them, take a side in their politics or a pox on both their houses. That said, as much as you might find it an inconvenient truth, Northern Ireland has more connections - culturally, linguistically, genetically and historically - to Scotland than any other country. That applies to both "traditions". Edited June 12, 2016 by aaid Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
