The villa team 14/15 and 15/16 season, the russia team in the euros 2016, the non Ronaldo Portugal team euros 2016, QPR team 13/14 season. Is that enough for you? Edited June 23, 2016 by Seat68 added another season for that Villa. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrisp65 Posted June 23, 2016 Author Share Posted June 23, 2016 That Russia team. Wow. They could still have qualified but mentally they were already on the plane back home. I don't believe their manager got up from the bench at any point during the game. Coleman kicked every ball. You would have to look at that Ukraine team too. I didn't watch their games so this is just based on looking at the tables, three defeats from three, no goals, the only team to get no points, worst team in the whole group stage. I didn't see their games though, so I might be name calling for no good reason, they might have been 'unlucky' three times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seat68 Posted June 23, 2016 Share Posted June 23, 2016 I did watch a Ukraine game and they weren't there either. Some teams just can't be bothered, and Wales are not one of them, they played as a team and had nothing to lose, would absolutely love to see them get all the way to a final. Really pleased for you supporters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrisp65 Posted June 23, 2016 Author Share Posted June 23, 2016 Well that's very nice! I've got Saturday as a genuine 50/50 game. Then the next would be 50/50 as far as I'm concerned. Then the next. But we have to be cautious. If Wales did somehow get to the final, the country could achieve astral oneness with the universe and the resultant Ludlow to Rosslare ferry crossing would take 8 hours. But I am excited by the prospect. Very excited. I'm excited right now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevo985 Posted June 23, 2016 VT Supporter Share Posted June 23, 2016 Ukraine looked decent enough against Germany. They created a lot of chances. Garbage in their other games though. Northern Ireland played well against them, but Ukraine were really dreadful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

S-Platt Posted June 23, 2016 VT Supporter Share Posted June 23, 2016 Did not see much passion from Wales when they were putting 11 men behind the ball against England! Depends how you measure passion I suppose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chrisp65 Posted June 26, 2016 Author Share Posted June 26, 2016 By all accounts from tweets n texts from Paris there was 48 hours of drinking in a fully mixed Wales / Norn Iron / French crowd before the game and it picked up where it left off after the game. A lot of people have spent a lot of money. A lot of favours and promises have been called in between a lot of hubbies and wives. Two or three people here not having a family holiday this summer because the old man is 'stuck' in France. Plus I have to say lots of very understanding bosses appear to be entering the spirit of it.

I agree with Coleman roughly 100% Already had a win on the board when they played england, nobody would be surprised by an england win, they could go on and win the group in their next game even if they lost. Northern Ireland was two similar teams in a knockout competition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
useless Posted June 26, 2016 Share Posted June 26, 2016 I suppose Wales have got this far and haven't really played all that well. If they and Bale can get going who knows what's possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
