As an side, do MSM hire Ally just to hear a Scotsman swoon and drool over Harry Kane and Phil Fodden ?
Sam Whatshisface must be the worst commentator out there and that's saying a lot.
Can't be arsed listening or watching, I know if the Dutch score as there will be a cheer from next door lol
I’ve had to turn the tv down so I can’t hear the sound of McCoist sucking English plums!
What is farcical? France should've won their group if they wanted this side of the draw.Quote:

That would be an example of the game being fixed.Quote:

Just seen the penalty incident again.
Kane kicks the boys foot, throws himself down, screaming and writhing in agony and gets a VAR review and a penalty.
Armstrong gets taken out in the penalty box whilst in on goal - nothing to see here.
****ing cheating at the highest level.
There’s one in the Holland crowd as well. Right behind the goals.Quote:

England really have scored with their half of the draw.
They are going to get to the final, almost certainly, without playing a decent side.
All the fawning over England seems a bit OTT.
Level with a Dutch team who finished 3rd in their group and who haven't really offered anything tonight, thanks to a farcical penalty decision.
They have been better than previous games but Dixon and McCoist going on as if they are Brazil 1970 crossed with Spain 2010.
England fans booing like they've been hard done by. Is there a more detestable following on the international stage?
England look well on top here. Really should win this, better players all over the park.
England well on top, matter of time before they score again.
What’s he supposed to say? England have been the much better team so far and Fodden the best player on the pitch.Quote:

Impressive by England but that pen was a joke.
Same could be said for England and a number of the qualifying teams. Spain, Germany and Turkey have arguably been the only good teams to watch and only one of them is left.Quote:

Dutch need to get the finger out here.
Holland be quite happy to get in level.
They can play better and hopefully they can use the penalty for some extra motivation second half. It’s still there for them.
Probably got a ticket for that end so he would have had no trouble finding something orange to wear to blend in.Quote:

Maybe add a little balance ? Fodden's strike, not quite as good as a 16 year old Spanish schoolboy. 1-1, only because of some strange VAR/ref decision that wasn't a patch on Scotland's pen claim. Dutch sitting too deep ? Kane, unable to hit the target and then making the very most of an innocuous connection ? Nonsense of a decision.Quote:

I thought it was harsh to criticise Pickford for the goal but seeing it again he should save it. Even with the pace on it.
Fair play to Gary Neville calling the penalty as it is. Keane likewise. Ian Wright playing the fool as is his usual inclination.
Wright is an ass, Neville spot on
Ian Wright your a 🤡
Wright saying the boys studs were up…he’s deluded.Quote:

Kane won that penalty with his play acting and rolling about.
Neville calling the pen a disgrace but falls short of accusing Kane of looking forit. Keane going there and saying he stayed down deliberately too long.
Pathetic from Wright again. At least Gary Neville said it was a disgraceful decision :agree:Quote:

Dutch have finished all matches strongly. Expect more from them 2nd half.
I get they're ex players and fans but Wright is talking like a fan here and not an ex pro pundit, Keane and Neville are both spot on and say it like it is and not a penalty.Quote:

I don’t think it was a penalty but I don’t think Kane did too much wrong. He did boot the boys studs and that’s a sore one, even if he did make some recovery to hit it.Quote:

Their best chance came from a high ball into the box and it seems England's biggest weakness.
No chance. England will win by at least 3 clear goals.Quote:

Your on fire tonight :greengrinQuote:

And that wasn't a penalty, either. Nonsense from the VA/ref simply making stuff up to get the outcome they want/need. UEFA should sub the ref at HT.Quote:

It's a poor Dutch team, days total football long gone.
Careful, the Arsenal police will crack down on you that kind of comment!Quote:

It's an abysmal misinterpretation of the rules rather than corrupt. Hopefully.Quote:

McCoist saying the same.
The Dutch spend too much time passing the ball across their own penalty box and will eventually make a mistake and lose a goal.
Netherlands aren’t very good eh
What a route these ***** have had to the final should they get there, yet again
The Dutch look really static when they have the ball…no movement or space…
Agreed. ****ing hate those attempts at cynical fouls tbh. Used to happen to Mcginn constantly.Quote:
