I was sitting in the garden as the sun weakens, thinking it must be gone six O'Clock. Looked at the clock, it's 5 minutes to Brazilian Serie A!

A day off work means nothing when you're a trader. :lol:

Quite something for a U21 game in the close season.

What is it about halftime that makes you feel it's time to eat? I was eating a sandwich during the first half. :lol:

I hope no-one's playing a drinking game where a sip is taken every time a simple ground pass is gifted straight to an opponent in El Salvador v Martinique.

If they are, few will survive to see the cold light of day.

Never noticed before UEFA have a TV channel with the U21 Euros free to watch.
Thanks, I'll try it today. England U21 playing Germany, betting fairly close with goals expected. :)

You'd think so. Germany are right in the poo. A draw is no good, a win might not be enough so they have to go for it.
We saw last night that Spain did exactly what was needed. They were like a shadow until they went behind and then turned up the wick.

For England they're through so a draw is fine, a loss is less fine. How these youngsters are directed and how they execute will be informative as they head towards senior team status.

There's about a 30s delay like but still at least there's coverage of all the games.

Radio coverage on Talk Sport 2 as well but they advertise some games as live commentary but on lesser games they commentate on them via watching delayed coverage from the London studio.

I noticed lately even the Betfair match view graphic had a long delay. Goalie was taking a goal kick and a second later there was a goal!

In-play for 1:15 and still not started. Great picture though, I've got it on my main screen.

1:40 behind in-play time, I think I'll leave it. :lol:

Goal before I could open trade, 3:53 on the IP clock. There'll probably be another before UEFA TV shows it. :lol:

As if the football transfer market couldnt get any crazier, along come the Saudi league and start splashing the cash. Ronaldo, Benzema, Neves, Koulibaly, Kante to name a few. A nice retirement home for these guys

Really looks like they are doing Chelsea a few favours :lol:
