If England aren't in it, I always go for Holland. They deserve it.

So does African American but if I say 'nigger' in public I'm likely to be chastised. North and South Holland are provinces, not countries...

I hope they win as well,I had five quid each way on them before the whole thing started,at 12/1
This means that if they get to the final,I win £30,but if they go on and win,it's £90 !

With all the group arrangements is it possible for Spain and Holland to meet in the final or will they meet before then?
I hope that's the final line up anyway from a purely footballing point of view as they're playing by far the best football so far.

"So far" doesn't really mean a lot though, because apart from Portugal and Czech Republic, everyone's only played once. There's plenty of time for fuck ups.

I would have thought Holland would be better than 12/1...
