Pfew! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif" alt="" />

Don't worry lynn They 'll loose eventually. I just hope they miss a couple of penalties on the way out.

Seedorf, de boer scared to take a penalty shot => sissy

belgium, not even qualifying -> sissys <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/ROFL.gif" alt="" />

I hope we will win the ek by penalties <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/rolleyes.gif" alt="" />

@ Spickey I am so glad you had a nice time! So you see how we celebrated... It was really magical those days... We had so much fun. I am sorry for England but hey it is our first time <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> So you will excuse my joy ok?
I like to drikn Mythos with my dad when we play Bacgamond (sp?). We have so much fun doing this <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />
And do not worry we think with our heads too. We think that will not win the next game but we are so glad thet we went that far <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

@Lynn
Why thank you me lady! You are very lucky up till now. Thank you <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

@Janggut
We are screaming "Hellas" which means Greece in more formal way. And it is in our language. In Greek we are called "Hellines" and our coutry "Hellada" or "Hellas". We also scream for Otto some good things. We are very gratefull for what he have done for us. But Jan I think that the French played some really good games. Perhaps they got tired. Or they were very confident for their team. Sometimes this is not good.

Could someone please explain why Belgians do not want Holland to winn? Do they have problems with each other? I would really want to know.

Well at least we were at the Wold cup. Who has time to waste time on a trivital thing like an EK <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/tongue.gif" alt="" />



Because if the win we'll never hear the end of it. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cry.gif" alt="" /> It's like greece vs turkey in eurosong.

we take small steps at a time, first the ek, and then the wk <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

Really? Does Belgium has the same problems we have with Turkey? Turkey is an enemy to us (and now I used the write word trust me). And that is because they have taken a part of Cyprus which is Greek ground and Turks constantly want to take some teritories from our country. In the past they took Constandinople too. The "Istanbul" as they call it now. You have to see what they have done to the fine Church Emperor made! It will make you want to cry. They are very imperialistic towards Greece not only now but since ever. The last years there have been made some effords to make things better between us from our part and the Turks responded nicely but the thing is that you can feel the undeground tension. They will never stop wanting to take ground from us. But we are ready <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/badsmile2.gif" alt="" /> Whenever they want... <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/suspicion.gif" alt="" /> We just wait for their move. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/memad.gif" alt="" />

Does the problem between Holland and Belgium are the same?

Sorry I am <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/offtopic.gif" alt="" /> but it really interests me.

Nothing like that Lucretia, it's just a thing called "Local Rivalry", just like your Olympiacos and Panathanicos rivalry in Footie. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/winkwink.gif" alt="" />

Luc, now u're making me want to hit the history books to find out more on Greece vs Turkey. yes, even before football! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif" alt="" />

yeah, i know about what they did to the cathedral that Emperor Constantine (my father's name) built. now it's a mosque. but i recalled they did allow the Pope to visit it. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/confused.gif" alt="" />

Oh I see! That is so good! It makes competition more interesting. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

Jan perhaps it would interest you to read Byzantine Greek History. You will see some interesting things about Turkish intentions.

Jan The Cathedral was built at first by Constantine and when it got burned rebuilted by Ioustinianos Emperor. (I don´t know if I spelled his name in English right). The Turks let the Pope visit it as a sightseen. It is not a Christian Cathedral anymore. But this is not the worst thing. After all some nations call their God different than Christians. But it is still God. The worst thing is that in that Cathedral were valuable treasures in Gold and silver. They stole every part of it. They also destroyed the wonderful wall paintings, the stained glass, mosaiks made by thousand small pieces... The Cathedral was a real Greek architectural jewel and sadly most of it is destroyed.
Here are some pictures.

pic3 (scroll down a bit to this to see a pic of the internal) The 4 towers that you can see outside the cathedral in some pics, are made by the Turks after taking the city.

Alboum (check this out. Has very nice pics from all the Cathedral).

Lucretia is that music Greek Hip-Hop? <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif" alt="" />
Anyway come on you Czechs (Head), Greeks (Heart). <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/winkwink.gif" alt="" />

OOhh no we get along quite well. In eurosong we always give a coupple of points to each other. But in football it's WAR. It's what we call a derby of the low lands (belgium, holland).

In holland they have belgium joikes and we have holland jokes. We get along quite well. but theire is a constant struggle to see wich country is best in football. I believe it came theire because belgium and holland played so menny games against each other to qualify for an EK or WK theire was some sort of rivalry.

I'm not sure, but I think that'd be Justinian, or Justianus.

luc im not a history expert but the estern roman empire vas ocupying you so hov the hell was it grece eh and just a side note italians conquerd it somevhere around 1200. and you started it if your corect cause of troy (i now that wasent turkey then but some remains exists ) and you (romans at the time and crhistians )did terorise the muslims first they only retaliated <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/exclamation.gif" alt="" />

I'm not sure, but I think that'd be Justinian, or Justianus.

-----------------------------------------------------------
Have no idea. This name is difficult even in Greek. I think Justinian is the right one. Thank you <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />



Better check it out again. We terorised muslims? They were sitting with their fat ashes in my country for 400 years! What was Greek revolution of 1821? A joke?
You have mixed up everything.

Sorry to go off-topic <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif" alt="" />

Yesterday evening I was waiting for the Greek team to play! Where was my mind, and it's not even today, but rather tomorrow!

But tonight... the Dutchies are playing <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/evilgrin1.gif" alt="" />
@jvb: <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wave.gif" alt="" />

[color:"orange"] C'mon PORTUGAL [/color] , it wasn't their fault they beat EN-GER-LAND, it was that cheating Swiss Ref.

For me holland can win tonight only and only if they loose the final with 3 missed penalties to make the trauma bigger <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/evilgrin1.gif" alt="" />. But I'll be cheering for Portugal tonight.

"Pass the Dutchie on the left hand-side....then cross the ball in and score"!!!

Go Portugal
