Should be an emotional occasion at Wembley tonight.

As far as the game goes I'm saying 1-1.

    Really wouldn't begrudge France a win here... We are definitely the (unintentional) "bad guys" tonight. The world will definitely be watching. Hopefully the England fans will do us proud during the French National Anthem.

    Hopefully there's a great show of respect and unity between the two nations and then England win...

    Can't argue with that. 2-1 England.

    England fans get, or did get, a lot of bad press but when it comes to tonight I think we will have it spot on.

    Germany Holland cancelled and stadium being evacuated
  • A very strange game, in which the build up and anthems almost mean more than the match.

    Really hard for all the players, I've no idea whether the French players would be deflated by the terrible events or inspired to make a stand

    Because if we beat France everyone will look at us and think... "They could have let France win because of the occasion"

    In a certain sense no different to saying that Charlton were the bad guys when we beat Halifax a few seasons ago

    Oh ok. Doubt that we'll have to 'let' them do anything though.

    I mean "bad guys" in the sense that everyone in the world who is not English will be cheering France on today, not because they dislike England (necessarily) but because they are backing France.

    Not as much an idea of we could have "let them win" but more in the sense of everyone wanting France to do well because of the occasion.

    Europe basically living in fear.

    Police say credible threat of a bomb attack at Hannover '96. Music venue also evacuated after suspicious package found. I've got a nasty feeling, which pains me to say, things will probably get a whole lot worse before they get better.

    Reports emerging that German police discovered a truck filled with explosives disguised as an ambulance outside the Hannover stadium.

    Being picked up by all the national papers.
