Just finished watching the French GP (what's this got to do with football I hear you ask ;-) ) and 2 or 3 times during the race one of the commentators announces that ITV (the channel showing F1 in the UK) will be showing the Euro 2004 football final live tonight.
He goes on to mention the two teams in the final...
"Portugal, who put England out, against Greece."
FFS! Who cares! England are out of a championship, yeah, we all know that! What they're not telling you is that this is the first time Greece has been in a major competition for 10 years!
Oh no, we can't mention that now can we? Nobody cares about Greece being 100-1 outsiders and getting to the final. If it wasn't for that bloody ref it would've been England in the final.....
