Euro 2012

Post by LeperMessiah26 »

In England, when there is a major international football tournament being played, World Cup, Euro Cup etc, the tv channels BBC and ITV usually show every game between them.

My question is this, does that happen here in Germany too? or do the German tv channels only show the German games? Its not long until the Euros begin, and would like to watch the England matches along with Germany, Spain and Holland matches.

Any info would be appreciated :D

Being the arm chair expert that I am 'Arry would of been my choice. :D

He's done a great job at spurs and deserved the opportunity in my book.

Thanks for the info Bernd, thats good news :guitar:

Regarding "Arry" for England manager, he would have been my choice for certain. Fantastic manager, and probably the best "English" manager around.
But, he aint a silly man! You are managing a very good Spurs team, with chances of winning things, possibility of buying great players, year in year out.

Why would you leave that to take on the most difficult job in professional football?? Whatever you do is not good enough for the fans, press, etc etc
You have to work with mediocre players who just don't have the desire, they play like they don't care, which they probably don't!

Dont get me wrong, I would love England to win something, but I don't think it will happen in my life time, and im only 33 years old!!!

Roy Hodgson was not the way forward for me. He completely failed at a big club in Liverpool, all those egos he couldn't keep in line, I doubt he will succeed much with the England team, who are full of overrated, big headed, overpaid numptys!!

There, rant over lol
