Everytime I see "Slaven Bilic" I read it as "Bernie Slaven"......I hope this is a sign!
Ha that's brilliant!
Folding my way into the big money!!!
The Ireland shirt is on already. Think I might have to go for a very long run to burn off all the energy that has me out of bed and bouncing off the walls at this ridiculous hour!!
Right all, I'm setting my alarm for 3.35am so I'll have 10 minutes to find a working stream on the net (Spain v Italy game is live on Japanese tv, but not ours).
If anybody could post up working streams or generally reliable sites for streams (and forum rules permitting), I'd be most grateful.
feic, i should be asleep but i cant... i envy those waking up

Did a preview of the Croats for GreenScene:
greenscene.me/2012/06/euro-2012-croatia-team-preview/
Will be here an hour before the match.
Did you ever notice that in every painting of Adam & Eve, they have belly buttons. Think about that...take as long as you want.
I'll be watching on German TV which has really gone down hill since Gunter Netzer retired at the end of last season. He was the only pundit on the national TV station that really knew his stuff about the foreign leagues.
Now they all just bring out the football clichés to describe how we play - hard working, long ball etc. Not far off the mark but more by fault than design
Gutted I'm not over in Poland. But will be cheering the Boys in Green on from a sunny Minnesota. Cracking day here. Great drying out. Here's hoping for an Irish win. Worried about O'Shea's lack of form, the liability that is Stephen Ward, Dunne's lack of match fitness, St Ledger's patchy season in the Championship, the tired displays of Duff recently, our lack of class at centre midfield, the inconsistency of McGeady although he looks to be coming into form at the right time, the worrying form Doyle is in. But other than that we are looking good. The Irish always play above themselves on the big stage and here's hoping today is no different. COYBIG!!!!!!
Heading to the pub soon. Games will finish at 4am here, up for work at 7. Funtimes!
About to go to the Market Square in Poznan and then to the stadium. Nervous but excited!
Come on Ireland.
There is no such thing as a miracle cure, a free lunch or a humble opinion.
Just got the jersey on, stopping off to pick up a few friends and family in an hour and a bit. We'll be descending en masse to O'Hanlons bar in downtown Regina run by a Clare man. Here we go lads. To all Irish fans everywhere - enjoy! This is it!
COME ON YOU BOYS IN GREEN!!!!
So bloody nervous!! Come on Ireland, how good it would be to get a win here, but a draw wouldnt be bad at all either. If we can at least match them or keep them quiet in midfield, I fancy that we will score.
Going to watch in Gorky Park, was thinking of hitting one of the Irish bars, or even the "Boston Pub" which just opened down the road, but since I've a friend's wedding in the morning, I figured I'll just get some air tonight. Supposed to be about 10,000 in the place tonight, right now it's just over that (according to the last text). A lovely 0-0 draw would be the nicest way to sicken my old colleagues who've been telling me that Ireland have no chance. Croatian media writing us off.
**** that, soft goal to concede.
