For those who missed it, I'll set the scene.
First Half
Turkey are shite. Czech ahead 1 - 0, and easily. Turkey get in the box once or twice.
Second Half
yellow card....yellow card....Czech score again. It's all over, Turkey can't play for shi...oh wait, they're all of a sudden amazing. Okay, they've scored three goals. Yellow card....yellow card....yellow card to someone not even on the pitch....yellow card...RED CARD...Turkey keeper is off...and they have no subs left....more cards....
Bloody good.

Ok, even i would have watched that game from the sounds of things.
Gee.... I don't know about the rest of you guys, but lately the only things that truly motivate me are erections and bowel movements.
Thank the Police coming straight from the underground...

And the Netherlands won with a second-string team.
Hmm...
What's with this having-a-billion-subs-on-the-bench rule by the way? That's stupid as fuck.

Nor I, but when they do the run-down of the teams at the start they have, like, a billion subs on the bench. Obviously they can still only make three but if they can choose from a billion rather than five or whatever it used to be, it reduces even further the slightest element of tactics that football has.

Reduces? Surely it increases. More to choose from will make a wider range of what tactics you can play.

No it doesn't, you silly billy!
It means that it gives managers the opportunity to deal with problems as and when they arise. That isn't tactical; that's merely convenient. Not that you can account for injuries like that of Ribery, but part of being a manager is choosing your subs in advance and in accordance with the problems that may arise playing against Italy, to continue that same example. Instead of having the opportunity to choose subs from the remainder of their squad during a game, a manager should have to make decisions concerning which players they'll likely need to use before the game. Otherwise it makes football super-pants number one.
