I did last night as well :D. The emotion of it all has made me weak and vulnerable.

I am surprised no one has mentioned the finest moment of last night, The Roy Keane, Ian Wright clash. Very funny. Keane lost it and Wright kept being his cheery self. Bound to be a clip somewhere if anyone hasn't seen it. Keane has gone Oompa Lumpa and he looked even funnier because of it.

Haha yeah, that was outstanding. Wrighty tried to have a laugh with him, while Keane continued being a miserable prat.

What I think it is with the Scots/Irish/Welsh, is that they totally misunderstood the whole 'it's coming home' thing. 99% of Englishmen knew it was tongue-in-cheek, we started saying it after we edged by Tunisia, it was just a laugh born out of actually enjoying a major tournament for once. For some reason though the rest of the UK&Ireland thought we were deadly serious and chose to perceive as arrogance or over-confidence. That a pinch of jealousy thrown in of course. But yeah, for the most part, they just didn't get it and it went over their heads a bit. Keane appears to be guilty of that as well, hence Wrighty just laughing it off in the exchange.

The full quote. Has he taken a knock on the head from Ramos as well?

Really ? I thought they started singing it years ago.
I suppose now is a bad time to say that Scotland have never lost to Croatia.

Mbappe, Hazard, De Bruyne and Pogba offer a big threat from open play.
Mina, Granqvist and Varane are huge threats from set-piece - especially when you've got Modric, Trippier, KDB and Hazard to take them.

Then if that doesn't work you've got Kane, Coutinho and Cheryshev on the bench.

I thought it was the best team from this world cup.
