Finished the Italian wine, now back on the beer. I just grabbed something from the box without looking and got Blandford Flyer.

Unless I’m missing something, that’s a guaranteed win if you bet all three with the same amount. Bet £1 on all three = £3. Win £2.88 plus your £1 back = £3.88 You’ll be .88 better on on your stake. I must have got that wrong, surely?

No, in essence that’s about it. Slightly more complex as it would not exactly be a free bet but a risk free bet. That is, if your bet loses, they refund it. I say "would" because their website has been crashed for most of the first half and I haven’t even been able to log in.

Right time for Summer Wine Cohort

England goal leading charmed life at the moment. Surely a Pirlo pass will lead to an Italian goal soon.

Listening to Radio 5 commentary with the TV pictures. Chris Waddle pronounces Italy as Itly in his Geordie accent. Makes me laugh every time.

And what is the point of Milner?

But I should have drank this "classic German pilsener" style beer when Germany played.

Banucci is a big unit in the Italian defense isn’t he? The Summer Wine Cohort certainly has a lot of flavours, not sure they all work together.

This half is less pleasant.

Do they play it online (radio5)?
Watching the game with Danish commentary is less fun...
