Will be supporting Scotland in the first game, obviously.
Have we always had opening ceremonies in this competition?

I think we have had opening ceremonies but all the attention has been on the Tartan Army invasion. I just hope Scotland don’t get a drubbing.

Well they're getting a drubbing so far and now a ridiculous red card.
Can England be worse? Yes, we know we can.

A drubbing was practically guaranteed unfortunately. The main reason Scotland are welcome at tournaments is the tartan army. Our players just aren’t in the same league as the rest.
Now the gloating will being by the patronising commentators which really irritates but their superiority complex tends to be their downfall.
Nearly the same score as the World Cup in Brazil when Scotland got beat by the hosts in the opening game as well. It’s practically tradition

Another football commentator more preoccupied with unloading endless stats instead of just commentating on what's happening on the pitch. Scotland can only improve.

TBF we were doing fine... ....and then the match started. I only watched the first half. It was embarrassing, and all too predictable.

Thanks, I found them. ITV make it so hard to find anything.

Since there is someone called DUMFRIES on the pitch, and of course my SIL is from there, I am cheering on The Netherlands in the afternoon match against Poland.
So far I have twice said out loud "I could have got that in!"
