Ukraine v France 5pm

[CyberRose]

They're full if praise but not sure any of them have a background in plumbing. Not that similar lack stop em with the football, mind

Well if it wasn't for the EU they could have got some plumbers from neighbouring Poland to give em a hand...

 

[JimW]

Continental climate here too, so we sometimes get rain like that. Have to say I miss the English summers - as well as not too hot and sweaty I'm too pasty to last long out in the sun here but home suits me fine.

 

[Badgers]

Tomorrow if postponed then. Gives England a teeny help if so.

/clutching at straws

 

[Kaka Tim]

Oh - I turned on late and was wondering why James Milner was playing for Ukraine.

 

[Minnie_the_Minx]

Never seen tropical storms?

New UEFA 'hostage' system modelled on ancient Celtic warfare.

 

[JimW]

Looks like its letting up a bit but still too much to drain the pitch I'd guess

ETA: Not before 19:00 CET - is that one or two hours?

 

[Badgers]

I was looking forward to listening this on the journey to work. Now nothing. Earliest restart in half hour? Did I hear that right?

ITV2+1 coverage has just started so I can watch the storm again

 

[CyberRose]

Chiles just asked if lightening could strike twice here tonight!!

That definitely sounds impressive although I would have more been thinking about Dracula than scooby doo

 

[Badgers]

I don't think a replay should be allowed. The Duckworth Lewis Method is the only way to sort this.

Yes. But to be fair my mind had already been made up before he said that

 

[Badgers]

Back on at 7pm

 

[CyberRose]

Chiles just said the Swedes projecting Ibrahimovic onto Big Ben would be like us projecting Steve Gerrard onto the Eiffel Tower. Yes Adrian, it would, apart from the Eiffel Tower is in France you utter plank

 

[Minnie_the_Minx]

Reduced playing time and only six-a-side?

Plus Ukraine are now 2-0 up.

 

[butchersapron]

Reduced playing time and only six-a-side?

France having to score 98 - reduced from Ukraine's 140.

 

[purves grundy]

[Minnie_the_Minx]

France vs Ukraine about to start on IVT2+1

When's the storm start?

 

[Kanda]

ITV2+1 coverage has just started so I can watch the storm again

They won't show it.

 

[Minnie_the_Minx]

They won't show it.

Well it's four minutes into the game so far and it looks like it's pissing down. Yep, it's absolutely lashing down

Being urged to get off the pitch as quickly as possible

 

[Minnie_the_Minx]

Temperature mid-80s there

 

[editor]

Hottie cam is working overtime tonight!

 

[Kanda]

Temperature mid-80s there

Yup. They said that an hour ago...

 

[editor]

Well deserved goal, well taken.

 

[editor]

Wham bam, goodnight Ukraine.
