Ijjy you got it easy just doing the England games, FFS! Next up we have Warzycha v Bilyaletdinov, it's EFCNIK on a Stag Do v A country really in Asia, it's Poland v Russia

Joint hosts Poland will be looking to build on their opening day draw with Greece, but will be thinking they've got to get a result against either Russia or the slightly easier final game against the Czech's if they want to try and get into the group stages. Can't see them tinkering around with the team much, I'm really looking forward to seeing everyone's favourite new Euro striker Lewandowski in action again. He looks pretty super

Russia looked very very impressive in their first game, led by Arshavin who perhaps only plays well for his country nowadays as he's mostly been a little gash elsewhere for some time, great to see him back at his best. I'm still mad at Russia for not picking Bilyaletdinov by the way, so I'm hoping for a Poland win here. Joint top scorer Dzagoev is a big fan of Frank Lampard, who knew.

Stat of the game, Bilyaletdinov only has one L in it, when abbreviated

Though they looked poor in the second half, I like Poland's chances in this one. The home team always seems to do well in this fixture and I imagine there will be some extra desire in facing Russia.
Thinking about running out to get some Tyskie for tomorrow.

Do you know what, I really wished I had played the Euro Beer 2012 game now you've said that, by only drinking beer from each country and using the knock out system

That would have been some challenge yet expensive, plus I'm not an alcoholic I guess.... I'm not sure Tyskie will make it out of the group stages after tonight's game
 
Well glad Alio is doing these!! Nice one mate!

If you need a break give me a shout and i'll put some effort in!

As for this....well...Russia were pretty beast in the first game...and will be here too.

I have so much free time it's an embarrassment to my social life, ha, you have the hard task here. All the trumps are done now, so I'll put more effort in the preview write ups....maybe. Once I've started a sort of Match Thread format, I can't go against it now. My OCD'ness wouldn't let me
 
This looks like it's going to be a major security nightmare,the Russians apperantly want to meet up outside the town and march en masse into the town through the main street!.....(just heard it on the news here in Dublin).... Plenty of overtime for the polish "old bill"!!
 

Might be a bloodbath this one. Ignoring all the history, and these guys hate each other, the media reckon russian supporters are bringing paper airplanes and the like to mock the death of most of the polish parliment in a plane crash a little while back which is still blamed on Russia.

Could be tasty, is all I'm saying.
 
I'd marry a Rusian bird, honest to go, a mail order or not. Who cares?
