Eurocast, the Euro 2008 podcast, episode 9 - plus predictions

Tuesday, 17 June 08, 11:31 AM

Morning all,

a bit later than usual but better late than never. Although that remains open to discussion. Let's start as usual with the predictions. Firstly congrats to ElTorro and 4ndyL who both got the Croatia v Poland result correct yesterday.

I keep expecting lots of goals in games, perhaps it's time to think differently. So for today:

Romania 1-2 Holland

Italy 1-0 France

Expect a glut of goals now! In today's Eurocast, the Euro 2008 podcast, we talk to German correspondant Tom about the 1-0 win over Austria and he's not optimistic about Germany's chances against Portugal in the next round. We also catch up with our regular Italian correspondant Gabriele and he previews Italy v France from an Italian perspective.

Plus there are your emails and voicemails and do please keep them coming.

Eurocast, the Euro 2008 podcast, episode 7 - plus predictions day 8

Saturday, 14 June 08, 11:13 AM

Happy Saturday to you all,

this is the Eurocast, the podcast that doesn't even take weekends off! That's how dedicated we are. As usual we'll start with the predictions. None right yesterday for anyone and I have to say I'm down money on my betting. I need a big one to get me back on track. So for today I reckon:

Spain 2-1 Sweden

Greece 0-3 Russia

Your predictions welcome in the comments.

On today's Eurocast we talk France v Holland. What a win that was for the Dutch and we look at it from both sides with French correspondant Ollie and Dutch correspondant Ashwin. There's comment on Italy v Romania too and a brief look ahead to today's games.

Do feel free to email or voicemail the show at any stage though. We'd love to hear from you.

Eurocast episode 3, the Euro 2008 podcast, - plus predictions day 4

Tuesday, 10 June 08, 08:50 AM

Morning all,

welcome to day 4 of our Euro2008 predictions and Episode3 of the Eurocast. Not one person got a correct prediction for yesterday's games. The closest was Dan who at least predicted 3 goals for Holland. My forecast for today's game comes after much scientific analysis and a visit to a medium. Every little helps.

Spain 2-0 Russia

Sweden 2-1 Greece

What do you think? Let us know in the comments.

Now, the Eurocast. In this episode Tom Thom(p)son and I discuss Holland v Italy, which was the best game of the tournament so far. We've got some of your voicemails regarding that game too.

We also talk to our French correspondant Ollie about the France v Romania game which was probably the worst game of the tournament so far, as well as some voicemails from a particularly unhappy Romanian fan. Have a listen to what he says because it's an interesting debate. Should football teams be more expressive even though it'll probably cost them, or is the defend at all costs approach acceptable? 

Tom and I differ on this one, what do you think? That's what this podcast is all about - your opinions. Let us know by voicemail or by email.
