[Football] Potential carnage Semi Final - England v Turkey

[Chicken Run]

Help me here. Are all “Turkish barbers” owned and staffed by Turks, or is it just a Style/brand where anyone can work or own?

You won’t see many Kenneth’s in them

You say 'Netherlands', and I thought so to. But at matches they seem to chant 'Holland, Holland'; and when I lived over there during a World Cup, all the posters were 'Hup, Holland, Hup'.

And I may as well provide some evidence....

I've been looking hard, really really hard, but I still can't see any evidence.

I might need to look a bit harder for a bit.

Tonight’s match they are chanting Holland

Still certain?

Well why don't you make a prediction then instead of sitting on the fence and getting splinters, eh?

Interesting, the below taken from Holland.com

What is the difference between Holland and the Netherlands? Many people seem to think that the two names are interchangeable. But North Holland and South Holland are actually just two of the 12 provinces of the Netherlands, which is officially called the Kingdom of the Netherlands. In this article, you can find out what has caused this confusion – and what the Netherlands (yes, all of it!) has to offer.

Is this going to be the only quarter final not to go to ET

 

[Pavilionaire]

Potential carnage averted.

Hope the ref gets protection post match

Edit wrong thread

 

[Durlston]

I don't think there's any need for that

Pure adrenaline and emotion still pumping through my veins from the England penalties so I do apologise to anyone offended by my comments. It was very poor form.

Relieved to be playing the Dutch in all honesty. Should be a really good match. And I backed them at 4/1 to win at half-time in 90 minutes. Crazy price considering the talent they have.

Of the two 'Turkish Barbers" in Boundary Rd who had that altercation a few months back, neither were owned by Turks. One was owned by Iraqis and the other by Iranians.

Netherlands.

...and to be fair, I was almost right with my prediction. Didn't expect England to be so f***ing good at penalties this time round.

My Dutch mate says Holland.

100% guaranteed it will be an England v Netherlands semi-final.

The Dutch were magnificent against Romania. Arguably the best performance of the tournament against a decent side who finished top of qualifying and then won Group E. The options up front are staggering with Memphis Depay, Cody Gakpo, Donyell Malen and Wout Weghorst. They also score a few from set-pieces.

You're joking aren't you. Depay and weggy are absolute gash.

They will still beat us though I suspect

 

[Eeyore]

No luzzing. A really poor effort.

 

[Peteinblack]

Won't we exit the tournament by losing a penalty shoot-out in the quarter finals?

How wrong I was

A lot of the lads I’ve spoken to like to refer to themselves as Kurdish

Surely he calls it Nederland?
