00:00Yeah, I'm watching it. I'm quite enjoying it. I'm enjoying the fact that we got to the quarterfinals,
00:05but maybe not the way we got there so much.
00:08I haven't actually been watching a whole match. I watch the results.
00:13What is your opinion on the results so far?
00:16England's going to win. Well, it's got it, hasn't it? No, I enjoy watching it, but the results.
00:23I don't mind watching it when it's, you know, the big matches like that. I don't
00:27look at the sort of routine ones, but yeah, quite enjoy it.
00:30Let's find out from those who do watch the Euros how they think England have performed
00:36this year and whether they think we have a chance of bringing the trophy home.
00:42I just think sometimes we're a little bit too safe. The way we play, you know,
00:46we've got great players. We know that. They turn up for their Premier League teams week in, week out.
00:53And, you know, we don't see a lot of that really. Whether it's the weight of expectation on their
00:59shoulder, I don't know. But yeah, but we're there. We're there. And, you know, there's always the
01:04hope that, you know, we will come up with that great performance in the next round.
01:07Why do you think so many people are getting behind the Euros at the moment?
01:13I don't know. Maybe the time is pretty good because perhaps people are fed up with the
01:16election talk, maybe, you know, they want something a bit lighter, maybe, and something
01:20to follow that kind of gets people, you know, together, doesn't it really, you know, as a nation.
01:29Do you think we have a chance of winning?
01:31I do. I do. Yeah, absolutely. I think sometimes, I just think the way we've got as far as we have,
01:38you do wonder sometimes whether your name's on it. But then I look, I watched the Spain-Georgia
01:44game after the England game last night and you think, yeah, are we in the same division? Are we
01:48in the same league? Can we beat them? But I think the answer on our day is yes.
01:52I suppose it's something to kind of hope,
01:55have a little bit of hope in, you know, rather than doom and gloom.
