Time to dust off Three Lions

... Sie geht zu Haus, sie geht zu Haus
Die Mannschaft geht zu Haus

 

[CorgiRegisteredFriend]

Franz Beckenbauer, Mrs Merkel, Hitler, Nena, Herr Tubthumper, Kaiser Wilhelm, Mrs Farage ......your BOYS took a HELL of a BEATING

What about Kraftwerk?

 

[Bold Seagull]

It is fascinating how the last 3 Champions have crashed out in the group stage. If England win it this year I won't even bother watching 2022.

There must be something in not needing to qualify and having no competitive fixtures building up to tournaments.

 

[Easy 10]

 

[Thunder Bolt]

This century European defending champions, go out in the group stage in the next tournament

France, Italy, Spain and now Germany.

 

[Easy 10]

Germany did have to qualify, they finished top of Northern Irelands group (10 wins out of 10).

Only the hosts qualify automatically these days.

Yet again Herr T [emoji23][emoji23][emoji23][emoji23][emoji23]

Shhhh ...... don't mention the '7 point lead' .....

 

[Harry Wilson's tackle]

크래프트 베르크, 베토벤, 아돌프 히틀러, 내게 들려 주시겠습니까? 메르켈 부인, 당신 아들들이

(translation: Kraftwerk, Beethoven, Adolf Hitler, can you hear me Mrs Merkel, your boys took one hell of a beating)

A pedant writes... Adolf was Austrian, perhaps Erwin Rommel might be a better choice?

 

[Tom Hark Preston Park]

It's official. Belgium are the new old Germany.

It's coming home, it's coming home...

to Brussels.

"Adolf Hitler, Albert Speer, Herman Goering, Erwin Rommel, Kaiser Bill can you hear me? Your boys took a hell of a beating!"

EDIT: Beaten to it by Ernest.

Anyway our Polish office cleaner was in just as Korea got their 2nd. She went mental.

 

[Weststander]

Korea closed off the Kazan Salient, to wipe out the Germans.

Yup,every time Germany decides on a Russian campaign it never ends well! Great result.

I believe that Germany were the nation to put forward the abolishment of winner qualification as they felt there was something that hindered nations when not playing competitive fixtures...

Oh dear....

Don't mention the Var!
