Euro 2016 Fantasy Football Live Match Chat – The Group Stages
And we’re very nearly there. Just a bit of last minute tinkering before it all begins and another summer of wondering when England will be home will be over in about a week or so! We’ve opened the discussion a bit early so feel free to post up those last minute Rate My Teams and post any questions you have on any of the squads or potential team selections. We are blessed with a truly international community so we are sure you will get some answers to almost any concern you may have. Questions regarding what the Dutch are doing this summer are summarily banned though. Oh ok, who are we kidding. First to get Raz to come out from under his anti-Euro blanket wins a t-shirt!
As ever, just as with FPL – post your scores, your match comments, your highs, your lows or just whatever you’re about to have for dinner. Don’t forget that you can make team changes daily with captains altered as well as line-up swaps as no doubt the site screwing up your changes as per every year but either way get involved as usual. It’s sure to be a fun ride. And please, please, whatever you do – don’t let Init win it again…

Good luck Kop. And all our Irish members
Thanks
Supposedly :big-lol:
Cheers. I fear we’ll need all the luck we can get!!
No Fellaini
All aboard the Ireland bus then, that’ll teach em.
Hey guys, how’s it going? Just turned on the TV and wanted to wish NIN and any other Irish posters on FF247 good luck today. Good luck to you guys from Belgium too, although I’m not sure I can think of anyone off the top of my head!
How goes the Euro 2016 fantasy stuff, those of you that are playing?
Oh yeah. Good luck NIN too, forgot about you mate!
Kop, are you Irish as well? I guess I had it in my head that you were a Scouser! Best of luck today, looks like that 2nd place spot is up for grabs in your group- need a good result!
All good Red, good to see you and hope you are well. Think most people are enjoying the Euro game so far. MLS starts back up today as well, can’t remember if you’re playing that. And no I can’t think of a single Belgian poster either.
Hey Init, good to see you as well! Things are going well here, summer is just starting so the weather is warming up and we’re enjoying being outside more. How are things with you?
I’m actually taking a break from the fantasy stuff until FPL starts back up. That shit wears me out, not sure how you guys play year round to be honest! Been enjoying the tournaments and scouting a bit for the coming season though.
Summer is starting here too. Well, in theory. I got my shorts on anyway. The weather itself isn’t playing ball but it makes me feel like it is anyway!
OH COME ON! 1 minute too late to make substitutes. Portugal better concede now.
You have had about 12 hours to be fair!
Nooooooooo :see-no:
Them Brownies had him in lala land for 12 hours and 1 minute
Any have Lukaku captain? 😉
Anyone have Lukaku in team? Lol
Fun fact: Iceland has 20.000 football players. In comparison, Germany has 6 million. Give deez bitches your respect!
What was that tweet the other day? Something like ‘Iceland currently have 0.013% of their population behind the ball’
They should let the Icelandic strongmen play footie for the laugh. Imagine trying tackle those beasts
So that’s the family packed off for the evening. TV to myself. Nice start from Siggy. Come on Ronnie do your stuff!
Yep, timely goal from Siggy. Good luck with Ronny, I hope he does well.
No you don’t 😉
