Sadly even he can't stop passive, narrow tactics from the manager that play right into Germany's hands. 🫠🙄

Abysmal last night, and Kelly likely would've saved a couple of those shots. 

Onwards to Cologne for me on Wednesday now.

Regarding Bair there’s a good chance that like UEFA, the Americas federation will make payments to the players club for him being there. 

I thought so as well, but I cannot find anything online that suggests that CONMEBOL actual do this. Although it seems each nation taking part will see around $2 million minimum go to their football federation. 

Let's hope we get something out of it.

Cheers David.  I did the same search and like you could find nothing to confirm payments directly to Clubs. Unlike the FIFA and UEFA sites which specifically confirm such payments. It is a FIFA recommendation to all regional authorities so hopefully that carries some weight.

A few years ago CONMEBOL was under severe financial pressure and had difficulties paying out for a number of their tournaments. Since then however the have secured substantial television deals/sponsorships which were believed to have put them in a good place. Fingers crossed.

Well maybe he'll come back from the tournament worth more to us and we can hold out for more money should one of the interested clubs make an offer 

(4 million or sod off) 

Joking 

£4 million for O'Donnell would be a great result.

Anyone think Liam Kelly might be in against Switzerland?

Not suggesting he will be but a chance I think 

 

Clean sheet Kelly ?  Absolùtly no chance . He would set their tactics for them if he did get in. High crosses into the box. Cuffed again thank you very much

Imagine Liam trying to avoid getting blocked by this guy at a corner vs Hungary.

Chi è Martin Adam, eccentrico attaccante di cui tutti parlano dopo averlo  visto a Euro 2024

You need a VPN. It's worth every penny.

I've been happily running a VPN for years - but I'm more than happy to take Derek Rae over most (all) BBC and ITV commentary teams. Especially the BBC combo on  the Poland game today.

Nothing wrong with "Un, Dos, three times" Moysie, a man of international style and pizzaz.
