@HLTCO They are amazing, especially at instantly recognising the players and their interactions. But if they did less research, maybe they'd spend more time providing us with this basic, vital information.
When England won the World cup, the finals consisted of just 16 teams.
The tournament was expanded to 24 teams in 1982, then to 32 in 1998, then to 64 in 2026.
In 2030, every nation will take part and the competition will last 4 years, when the next competition begins.
@HLTCO Because he's probably as amazed as I am about so many Palace fans' naive take on the UEFA tin-cup. It undermines our league games and makes us highly vulnerable to being relegated next season.
@TheEaglesBeak You've nicely demonstrated what I've been thinking: these Euro competitions are undermining our domestic leagues (and our performance in them: how you going to feel were we to get relegated next season?)
@TheEaglesBeak Was it? So easy to attack refs when the game would hardly work without them. Look at the concentration shown by the main-stand lineman:
