LET'S GO DUTCH

BACK on track after some technical hitches...

I've been struggling all week to find anyone who's watched any of the Euro 2008 matches from start to finish.

Are we losing our appetite for footy, are the games on at the wrong time or is it simply because England's players have been on wedding duty and flying to the Roon that we're not interested in the bigger picture any more?

Either way, tonight's game promises to be a cracker - Netherlands v France.

If the Dutch can string some passes together tonight like they did to destroy the Italians, it should be a fine old night.

Right now, I'd take any two from Croatia, Holland and Spain for a dream final.

But if Croatia make it, Steve McClaren will begin to think that he's a good manager again.
