UEFA Euro 2012 official thread

8th of June 2012 is the kickoff date for the UEFA Euro 2012 competition. Let the discussions, analysis, predictions, player ratings etc of the tornament begin here. . .

The 2012 UEFA European Football Championship, will be the 14th European Championship for national football teams organised by UEFA. The final tournament will be hosted by Poland and Ukraine btw 8 June and 1 July 2012. It is the first time that either nation has hosted the tournament. This bid was chosen by UEFA's Executive Committee in 2007. The final tournament features 16 nations, the last European Championship to do so (from Euro 2016 onward, there will be 24 finalists). Qualification was contested by 51 nations between August 2010 and November 2011 to join the two host nations in the tournament. The winner of the tournament gains automatic entry to the 2013 FIFA Confederations Cup hosted by Brazil.

we already have football thread!!! That i think will serve that purpose well!!!!!

Sorry for multiple posts! MTN PALAVA

That thread has already been polluted with all sorts of things. So far I did not create a thread that resemble that one, I am good to go. Avatar1 is different from avatar2, avatar2 is diff from avatar2paired, paired is diff from iced, iced is diff from srt5k, mb, hawk, eagles, orton, all these are dongle boxes and why are there so many dongle threads? Why not limit the whole dongle stories to a single thread? There should be definition to everything we do. Oko kin je ti baba ti omo ko ma ni aala. Dont let us lump football stories together. Leagues are different, tournaments are different, competition are different. They are of different tradition, history, culture, value, belief and approach.

I totally concur with Donfolex on this. I think dis thread is uncalled for as a football thread already exist. Also, this new thread will make peeps reject the already-existing football thread.

na so

That means you are all hypocrites!!! Why are there so many jokes, dongle, sat, and browsing tweak threads? Let your criticism be genieu. Good nite!

@Gmailer, or what u call urslf,why are u always different?Grow up and learn,you are too controversial for my liking,blunt and raw in ur use of words.Enjoy.

O.M.G!!!! Waz wrong in creating a topic under ''football'' thread? Plzzz plzzz plzzz lets not complain wenever sumbdy tries 2 mak gud contributn. Under ''Dongle'' we have more than 100 topics, Under ''lotto'' dere r mre than 100 topics, under ''Free Browsing tweak'' morre than 100,etc so y should it b dfrnt under ''football''? I was really enjoyin readin it b4 u pple mess it up!!! Abeg gmailer continue. U wil b our next moderator cuz ur topics r so numerous n i lik it.

Guys...pls let's calm down a little. We are one family & so understanding one's self is paramount. Gmailer...cool down pls.
Okay, for peace to reign I will suggest we accept dis thread for d purpose of d EURO 2012 competition. But at the end of d competition we concentrate on our ''For Football Lovers Only'' thread.
Pls what do you guys think?

NO NO NO! Football lovers thread should b for sport arguremnt cuz dere r so many areas 2 focus on sport. Is it transfer saga? Latest scores? Pre-season? Friendly or qualifiers? I mean all tings shouldn't b discus on one topic wen we hav a stand alone football forum.

What happens at d end of d whole competition.hmn, thread close, or no be so?

As 4me i like dis thread but d guy 2 dey create unnecessary thread and i guess dat wat pple are complaining about.

With the poland going for 4-2-3-1 I see them playing more cautiously. They may eventually loose this match. But, history has always been in favour of poland whenever they play against Greece. Maybe history will repeat itself, or the long time jinx be eventually broken today.

Poland will win dis tym

Welcome back to ntcguys Double0. History has it that, majority of those that played for their adopted countries ended up regreting their actions. There is pride and prestige playing for your native land my brother. No matter what, your root will always be your root. Welkom back again stubborn guy!

Sm1 said poland vs greece match is 5pm.

A major race row has erupted in England's host city of Krakow after members of the Holland team complained that they were subjected to monkey chants during a training session.
@odofin... Yeah bro! 5pm 9ja time.
