Im going for Italy....at the start I said they could turn up and win it. I hope so anyway coz they have been a joy to watch in the last 2 games while Spain have put me to sleep. I like Balotelli when he is interested

Im with Pete. Kris Boyd tops my list although it wasnt personal, just that I thought he was absolute rank. And Ferguson in his second spell was annoying at times. Actually felt sorry for Konterman but cringed when I saw him in the team.

Very refreshing to hear Wallace' comments again. Shame there isnt more like him in the camp.

Italy were once again absolutely brilliant and a joy to watch. 2 games in a row they have produced the best 2 matches in the tournament. Really hope they go on and win it now.

Im a bit confussed over the turning against Green. He stepped in when nobody else did yet now is being made to be the bad one. How can he build us when players are walking away with no fee and no Season Ticket Sales. Surely he needs the investment first before signing those 19 targets. But nobody could even be signed when we dont know what league we are going to be in. The best thing would have him to buy the assets then sell them on for a decent profit. But why is there so much objection to him at the moment? I cant understand why division amongst our own fans would be created when we have enough to put up with from SPL, SFA and other clubs. Honestly, what have I missed that Green has done wrong behind the scenes?? Ive been travelling for 10 days and barely kept up so may well have missed something.

Hope the majority on those undeclared turn up and then we'll still have a decent XI. From the 'rebels' who wont turn up (can we call them that?) Im just really disappointed they didnt accept the transfer then left for a small fee. Out of those players Im not bothered about Whittaker, McCabe, Lafferty, Ortiz and Fleck moving on anyway.

Another boring match last night, thought Portugal could win that one. Why did Ronaldo wait to take the last pen! He was too busy thinking of his own glory thinking he'd get the winner rather than going through. He should have been first up! Ive a question regarding penalites during shoot outs though....when does the ball become unactive? If you hit the post its a miss but if it hits the keeper then goes in does it count? Does the ball motion have to stop?

Got to go with Portugal tonight. Italy gave Spain a run in the opening game, Rep were out of their depth but Croatia also didnt deserve to lose against Spain. France were poor also. But Portugal have got a bit of confidence going into this one.

I just cant understand why the players wouldnt make an agreement to transfer there contract to newco but be allowed to move at the first offer giving the newco a platform of income to then buy new players. They must be thinking about their signing on fee at next club. In the unlikely event we applied for Englands leagues I wonder how many of them would have annouced they arent transferring to newco. This instance proves the lifeblood of a club is the fans...it will be the 1000s of Rangers fans who continue to support and fund the next generation. There is a few to be ex players who wont be welcomed to Ibrox in the future IMO.

Yeah that was my first thought, lets apply for England. There is loads in Aberdeen celebrating that they think they were final nail....they dont support their team at all. Karma will come back and bite them when they are relegated. Ive still have a feeling there is a set up in this....the TV and sponsor deals may announce a few issues that 'forces' clubs to do a U-turn and vote yes on the official day. At least then the chairmen of clubs who have already said 'no' can use that as an excuse to their fans....every chairman knows the financial implecations of voting no.

Would normally have got behind most Scottish clubs in Europe but now I hope the Turks stuff them!! http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/18569817

The commentary and pundits made the defeat sweeter last night. It was the most embarrassing Ive heard. Not sure what game Shearer, Hansen and Dixon were watching. But Mowbray and Lawrenson were terrible....Lawrenson resorted to saying he hopes a player stayed down injured!!! Terrible comment to make! But the actual commentator Mowbray calling a player a reject is laughable when Carroll and Rooney were shocking....Diamanti played very well when coming on which shut him up. Ive no problem with England as a country, I like the place and have a lot of friends. If they are playing in other sports I may get behind them, but the arrogance like last night from the BBC team is what makes me always want to see them get stuffed at the Euro's and World Cups.

Bit it bold shows Inverness have been blackmailed. Thats 4 clubs officially admitting it now....time to not even let them get a vote and just apply to SFL

Sorry just been in the sticks for 2 days with no internet access......what did Naismith say?

And it just shows you the pundits who claim the Premier League is the best in Europe are way off!! It might be the most entertaining for us to watch but Serie A is supposed to be going through a bad patch yet a Italy team with no stand outs like Baggio, Maldini etc from the past give England a footballing lesson. It was a joy to watch. Carroll 35m! Yet the the commentator called Diamanti a West Ham reject when he came on....loved him getting the winning pen.

I hope the winners of the Germany and Italy Semi win it, those 2 have been the better teams. Shame thats not the final. I think Germany will have too much for Italy after the Italians played 120 mins and the German side is young. Was very impressed with Italy though.

The most one-sided 0-0 games Ive ever seen. Italy absolutely battered them and justice was done. England go on about Scholes but Pirlo gave a master class last night. The worst thing is the history books reflect a draw in 90 and 120 mins when Italy deserved to win by about 5. Shame for Ash Cole though.......haha

Aberdeen confirm they vote no. http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/18539483 Definetely shouldnt fund any of these teams again for at least 3 seasons when we return to top flight.

Not sure if 2m is enough but all players will be undervalued anyway.

Yip thats that only time Ive heard him speak sense. Considering its a national company (Sky) covering all UK then the TV deal is a joke. 80m over 5 years to 12 clubs when Wigan receive that same amount in 24 months puts it into perspective. I know the Premier League is a far better league to watch but I wouldnt be tuning in to see games like Stoke v Wigan over Rangers v Hearts.

Great appointment for Swansea, high profile and could attract some cracking players there. They could really establish themselves as a long term EPL club if this goes to plan. Wouldnt be good to see them finish above Liverpool next season.

Im thinking it could be a 6-6 vote. But I still think those voting no will use money excuse and when the crunch comes they will vote yes for money reasons and know a 25 pt sanction will be in place. Currently Im guessing its like this Yes: Rangers Ross County Motherwell Kilmarnock Inverness St Mirren No: Aberdeen Dundee Utd Celtic Hearts Hibs St Johnstone

Nice idea but too far fetched for me. Isnt there a rule about owners owning more than 1 club?

On paper the first 3 are Portugal, Germany and Spain but I think we could see a few upsets in the Quarters. Czechs and France could sneak through. But I'll go with this: QF 1 : Czech Republic 1-2 Portugal QF 2 : Germany 4-0 Greece QF 3 : Spain 2-1 France QF 4 : Italy 2-1 England

That was a poor group England were in. Once / if Spain and Germany start to click then England will be thumped by one of them. Italy are playing better than England and should beat them.
