Hi Lucretia
Here are a few of words for you to use instead of enemy:
Opponent Adversary Rivals
I'm English and my English isn't good <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/silly.gif" alt="" />
Enemy is correct though, but is usually associated with extreme rivalry. I hope you're not offended by me telling you this, as you're english is as good as enyone else's <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/winkwink.gif" alt="" /> It's just that you seemed at pains to use a different word. xAcex Oh thank you so much! Opponent is my word. Enemy sounds so brutal for a nice sports compettition. No way I am not offended at all. I always want to improve. Thank you very much <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wave.gif" alt="" /> Congrats to Holland <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/party.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/party.gif" alt="" />
You can have my absence of faith you can have my everything...

Everything you know is wrong Holland winning in penalty kicks. Next week gravety will reverse and we will all be thown in to space. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cry.gif" alt="" /> I'll tell you Holland winning with penalties is one of the signs of the apocalys. Repent Repent the end is near

France failed.

Congrats to Holland I seem to have a problem there, when ever I talk of a sport I say ENEMY and when ever I talk of war, I say other side. I get them mixed up... <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/shame.gif" alt="" />

WOW.... this thread has gone crazy. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/up.gif" alt="" /> Unfortunatly i had to watch all the games i could in my favourite Bar in Kos called [color:"yellow"] The Delon Pub [/color] run by Costa and Dimitri by bestisist Greek friends <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/up.gif" alt="" />,i had a skinful of the local beer MYTHOS and of coarse shedloads of STRONGBOW which they had on draught <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif" alt="" />. None of this got in the way of my Sun worshipping 'cos the games kicked off at either 7pm or 9:45pm, and so i am once again rather nicely tanned. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif" alt="" /> Engaland were very average in my opinion,the only team i have really enjoyed watching is them Czech's. Greece have done brill, especially against the Technical sides like Frogs...err sorry France, and Portugal. Reading thru the thread i saw some refereance to Warm Beer <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/think.gif" alt="" />, by this i take it we are talking about "Real Ale" which is Scrumdiddlyumptious <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/up.gif" alt="" />,and i do partake to the odd Jug, usually in times of need in the Winter. Anyway my tip to win EURO 2004 now is (If they can keep their nerve??)Czech Republic, and good luck to 'em. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wave.gif" alt="" />

Some light entertainment to keep you going between matches: You may need to install flash for this: Play Me

I really want to know <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/confused.gif" alt="" /> Opponent, other side <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/winkwink.gif" alt="" />. Enemy. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/badsmile2.gif" alt="" /> They are all correct words, just some may seem a little, strange.

Sigh,i cannot believe it.
Well when Owen scored the first goal,i knew in my heart that england were going to loose.
Having said that the england v portugal match was more like
Portugal midfield v English defence.
The english midfileders for some reason didnt play and so we defended deep and there is only one outcome from that.
The portuguese played with more confidence,indeed had more possession but ultimiatley didnt create many chances which would have been expected of them.
The english defence defended resolutely i think and between them had great team spirit.
Many of the english made a big deal(still are) about the disallowed goal but in football sometimes you get good decisons and sometimes bad.
Like the Italians we get many bad decisons our way.
Ahh well i bet the winner of the Checz/Greece match will win Euro 2004.
Those two teams for me have been the two ones to look out for.

I like Adversary. Or nemisis. @Morbo wow that´s nice. I like nemisis too. It is Greek but it does not mean "opponent". We use it for something that hunts you. It could be a thought, a person or an event. And it has revenge elements in it. Boy hard to explain. @Lews thanx a lot <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> @Spick!! Welcome back!! Mythos is a fine beer indeed! The only one I can drink. (When I have to drink beer... <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/tongue.gif" alt="" />). Was everything ok? Did you enjoy your staying? Were you here when we celebrated? Boy you could see the crazy side of Greeks this Friday! I hope you were treated right in here. Otherwise Luc is going to be really mad with Costas and Dimitris <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/badsmile2.gif" alt="" /> Ok that was it folks! The next game will not be a victory <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/disagree.gif" alt="" /> But it was really nice as long as it lasted <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

what the heck, Luc? i'm sure greece will fight to the dying minutes & not give up. win or lose, i will always see greece as a giant killer. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/up.gif" alt="" />
greece is sooooo incredible! i'm sure it must be Luc weaving her magic. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/badsmile2.gif" alt="" />
french are pitiful. their loss isn't trivial as time & time again, they proved to be arrogant & over-confident. like otto rehagle(sp?) said, u only play as well as your opponent allows u to. & no doubt, it is france that allows greece to take opportunity to move in to victory.
i hope greece will go all the way to final. woohoo!!! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/party.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/party.gif" alt="" />
what's the chant that the greek fans are shouting? hella? is that 'greece'?
barta, don't feel ashame. it's not u playing the game. if u are in there, well, i'm sure that all of us will be there as well. how can we abandon our PIF president? <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

@Spick!! Welcome back!! Mythos is a fine beer indeed! The only one I can drink. (When I have to drink beer... <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/tongue.gif" alt="" />). Was everything ok? Did you enjoy your staying? Were you here when we celebrated? Boy you could see the crazy side of Greeks this Friday! I hope you were treated right in here. Otherwise Luc is going to be really mad with Costas and Dimitris <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/badsmile2.gif" alt="" />
@Lucretia, Mythos not bad at all, could not drink to much of it though i'm not really a lager drinker! I had a terrific time thanks for asking and i was in Kanari Street in Lampi,Kos in the Delon Pub and everything went totally bonkers on the final whistle, cars and mopeds were hammering up and down the street sounding there horns constantly, there were some huge fireworks let off, really deafaning!!and the locals were dancing and waving your national flag with great glee <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/up.gif" alt="" /> Costa, Demitris and all off the Spiriopoulus family who run the Pub are amongst the best friends you could possibly wish for, and it for this reason that we will be going to the same place next year, our fourth year on the trot!!

I think too that the Greek or the Czech deserve to win. And since I don't know any Czech fans in here, I will support Greece! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/up.gif" alt="" />
I'm sorry, jvb, I don't want Holland to win, but you do understand this, do you? <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/evilgrin1.gif" alt="" />

@ lynn, since you are from belgium, I completely understand you <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/tongue.gif" alt="" />
I do at least hope were getting to the finals, our team isn't playing the best, but it does have the most luck at the moment <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/silly.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wave.gif" alt="" />
