You cannot lose tonight Lugs!
I just hope it is a decent match - so often the finals are disappointing.

England designated away team. Interesting to see the colour strips. Red as in '66?

Oh yes please!!! Mother safely tucked up in bed so I am going to settle down to watch. BBC (non advert) coverage for me - although I think it is unfortunate that both channels are showing the same image tonight. Not everyone has access to streaming. 30 million are predicted to be watching. Half the population. What about the other half? Anyway, time to decant the Prin-goals (that's what they are called at the moment) and the something and coke. COME ON ENGLAND!!!

Just wish Roy Keane was a pundit on the BBC and not ITV.

I've been fine all day. Been out and about seeing friends for the first time in 18 months.
Now I'm a bag of nerves.....

#Bag of nerves. A bag of nerves. That's what I am. I'm still a bag of nerves......#
Best thing we could have done is go one up early. Been a great game so far. Fingers crossed. I need a drink....

Ok - who is in favour of the second half being abandoned due to rain?
Anyone?
And can England please stop scoring in the first 5 minutes? I was wrestling with my Pringles can - foiled by the foil as it happens - and when I looked up they had scored!
Great match played at speed. Italy are a long way from beaten.
But come on England. Get another one in the first 5 minutes of part 2.
Love the way Gareth has gone to the Alan Hanson school of showing emotion...

I agree, we need another one early. And then defend with concentration. Cos this Italy team aren't beaten until the final whistle. My poor heartrate.

If it wasn't for the medicinal booze I would be hyper ventilating...

Well, we could all see that coming. Please not penalties.

Yep we've just lost it in the last 15 minutes and Pickford's lost it a bit. Mount just faded and Kane is going to deep again.
Why do they keep doing it, if I can see it, why can't they.
