Welcome to Euro 2008

ITV's Portugal v Turkey coverage just ended with a preview of Netherlands v Italy. The roving report was quite positive about the Oranje, but then the pundits in the studio seemed to write us off, saying 'the Dutch's worst enemy is the Dutch', highlighting our tendency to self-destruct and finishing with a hope that Italy would play their best football! Ah well, it'll just make it all the sweeter when (NB) those same pundits are eating humble pie after the Oranje win on Monday night. (No offence, nineinchfail!)
