[MochaSoul]

Do they declare the results all in one go or do it by region like in the uk?

Bit by bit...

Important to remember these are opinion polls not exit polls. There's a sort of projection like we're used to at 7 i think.

Yep.

Though if they are wrong, they appear to be pretty consistently wrong IWSWIM...

 

[Kaka Tim]

im working on the assumption that the polls are wrong in favour of the outcome I least like.

 

[Bernie Gunther]

A very close result with resultant legitimacy issues for whatever outcome ensues, and for the alternative, might actually be for the best.

Syriza politicians always do so well at seeing off hostile BBC journalists.

You remind me of something Benfica supporters have been saying for years.
"We will get plastered. In joy, if we win, in misery if we lose."

I'd need something stronger than beer if the result is yes.

I have to say that the few times I've watched football in Portugal were a real pleasure, I like FC Porto better though

 

[J Ed]

Idiot talking heads on the BBC obviously smarting from the Greek people voting in their self-interest are suggesting sarcastically that there should be referendums in every country in the Eurozone. God, I cannot watch the BBC anymore, the political and news stuff is just terrible these days.

You spelled boavista wrong.

 

[pocketscience]

After all the bullshit they've thrown at Tsipras and Varoufakis Schaeuble & Junker should do the honourable thing & resign if the Greeks vote NO.

Hehehe

I was indoctrinated into Benfica but my mind has always leant to Sporting Clube de Portugal.

Foda Se! Porto all the way. That said, I've been to Sporting and Benfica too, and every single one has been a pleasure.

Oh no, what have I started!

 

[Coolfonz]

Close vote leaves a lot of problems; division, resentment against Syriza...close to half the country would be very angry.

My Tory voting brother in law was spouting some shite about Greece last night. Withering on about the phrasing of the referendum question in an attempt to have a dig at Syriza. After he whined "have you read the question? It's incomprehensible!" his wife turned to him and said..."well of course you couldn't understand it, it was in Greek".

Heh heh.

Just goes to show the spread of propaganda amongst the running dogs of capital here too though .
