There have been too many boring matches this Euros.



Yep i would agree mike.

It also made for some pretty boring qualifying. Well except for Holland and Scotland :laugh

Well this has been pretty boring so far, other than the Portuguese seeming very skilled at stamping on people.

I really cant remember a more boring game than this.

England should fear neither of these teams.

True. Though not sure either of these teams will get much further.

Croatia at least having a few hopeful shots now.

Poland and Wales were hardly impressive either. I guess Belgium are favourites for this half.

Saw very little of any action yesterday.
