fantastic don't have to put up with **** ITV , even if they do have the better commentary option of GN the overall show is much worse
 
Actually just looked it up and Cosimo is right, looks like it's just ITV. I thought the semis were showing on both channels but it's only the final :(
 
We should win this one but Croatia are not a joke side. We must take them seriously.

France vs. Belgium is a tough call. I think France will likely edge it but a bit of luck could send it either way. Should be a great match either way.
 
Bleh - looks like I will have to watch it via the ITV stream - last time I tried that it was like 5fps ASCII art quality :(

Even on TV it isn't great - dunno what the problem is but on two different setups any time a team has been playing in red they've become a smeary mess even when what is going on around them is in higher resolution and something about the colours makes it look drab and boring.

To be fair to them I think they have taken every game except the game against Belgium seriously, and that actually worked out better for us in the end.
 
I hope Belgium stuff France, I think we can edge Belgium but France are lethal on the counter. Croatia is freewin with them being knackered I hope, looked rough against Russia.
 
Hendo apparently an injury concern, hope he makes it his energy would be a big loss.

He's unbeaten in his last 30 games in an England shirt as well I think I recall seeing?

I think he's great, but the biggest issue is his replacement is absolute crap.

When I got my first big screen TV a few years ago, I thought there was something not quite right as ITV looked inferior to BBC, and this was on SD.

Did a bit of research and it seems ITV just don't provide the same bandwidth, hence the blurrier picture.
