Think Italy will hammer Albania next but you never know what you're getting with Italy.

I heard you were up there and the bookies had you as one of the favourites no doubt. I have Spain on the bonus question for the Euro winner hehe lots of France, couple of England and Germany. Pretty open. Was even thinking of going with Portugal.

The big teams are really bullying the smaller teams so far. Supporting Italy, but I hope Albania can at least put up a fight.

At least the next game is on free norwegian TV. I've had to endure crappy british and russian stream up until now...

Shout out to my fellow 8th placed Kicktipperz

No, no, and fuck NO!! Why would I? Do you speak Gaelic or Welsh ?( keep in mind you could fully do that and I wouldn't bat an eye)

Tv2 (the commercially financed channel) and NRK (the BBC of Norway) share the rights to this Euroes. Olympic games is full NRK I think.
Money talks here as every other place

Ok lets go Italy and Scamacca

I know a few words of Gaelic, but no. Those aren't the first languages of bordering countries with millions of speakers though. Like most Britons learn French in school. I suppose more people will speak some Finnish/Russian/Sami up north.

I just find the thought of you watching a sports stream in a language you don't understand amusing.

Why is that prick Xhaka playing for the Swiss and not Albania?

Granit xhaka is Albanian for dogshit footballer

 

[Ignicious]

@650lb Sumo it's either watching a foreign stream or not watching at all. I have never paid for sports when I can see it for free. Don't mind foreign language.

Most streams are available in english though. But if they are choppy, I'll rather watch a steady stream. No matter language

By the way they were interviewing a Hungarian player earlier and when he spoke Hungarian I thought oh that sounds like Finnish. I checked some words:

apple - omena - alma
horse - hevonen - ló
fire - tuli - tűz
water - vesi - víz

Hungarian and Finnish separated 5,000 years ago but you can still see the resemblance in most of those words.

Russian is a good language for getting free content. Norwegian/Swedish/Danish aren't good at all. A lot of stuff released in English isn't even dubbed, as you know. You can get some books/ebooks though. But even some of those I found on Russian sites.

I've never once seen an Albania game.

All I know about them are Dua Lipa, the Hotti boys, and Xhaka.
