Have you always wanted to know what makes your fellow FMF-ers tick?? How they feel about something?? What they like or dislike??

Well, now you can

Send me your suggestions for a poll in a PM and next week's Easy Weekly Poll could be your question

A few rules:
- This is meant to be fun, so no difficult, controversial or political questions.
- Try and limit the number of options






I thought about adding more choices (only when my national team plays, only when my team reaches the final, etc.) but a simple and ruthless yes/no seemed more informative

I voted yes, Not sure i will see a full game.

I'll dip in and out of the games I'm interested in.

I read the other day that the FA have handed back more than half their ticket allocation as England fans weren't buying them! I have a sneaky feeling that this tournament is either going to be outstanding or a complete flop with racism and/or violence.

Yes, in Donetsk and Kiev. I suspect that the potential for racism and violence had been sensationalised, but I hope I'm not proven wrong.

Nope. None what so ever.

Yup, as many as I can. I only really watch the Euros and the World Cup when it comes to football.

I would imagine I'll probably watch all of them (unless I get a better offer of course )

Couldn't care less, unless there's a tv in the pub with any match blasting in the background

The pressure is on us

Same here. not a sports guy but I like a good friendly competition that brings the nations together.
Obviously I am not British so that helps here.

Avoiding as much as physically possible. I quite like the advert but that's as far as my interest goes.

I keep thinking the advert for Big Brother is for the football. Hunky men at the start all glistening with sweat.

I do not know what a UEFA match is and I doubt I'd watch it even if I were magically able to tune it in on my telly box.

Nope.

I love sport, especially rugby and tennis (am watching the French Open as I type) and I can't wait for the Olympics and Wimbledon

For some reason football just doesn't do a thing for me.

I would rather stick pins in my eyes than watch football.

Plenty of sport for summer now - Euro 2012 leads up to Tour de France and that leads up to the Olympics. I shall be glued to the TV til the middle of August.

I'll be watching and having some bets.

Who are you having for the winners? Spain?

No.
The odds are too poor.
I'll be betting on things with better odds.
Correct scores and golascorers combined, name the finalists etc.

Doesn't that improve as the competition goes on??

Football =

What. Is. UFEA?

UEFA stands for "Union of European Football Associations" - i.e. the governing body for football in Europe.

Does no one read my initial posts ???? I thought some might not know what UEFA stands for, so I did add the above quoted explanation !! Including wiki links and everything!!

Yep.

I was trying (and failing miserably apparently) to make a joke... as in: Football and UEFA do not register on my radar in the slightest.

No - they tend to get worse as there are fewer possible winners.

Obviously. Will watch as many as possible. Almost all of them in fact. I've only got two things planned during the tournament and one of those days no football is played

I can't wait! We'll do shit though, so I'm backing Germany unless England manage to shock me...

Never seen a football match in my life. Intend to keep it that way.

Rugby >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Football.

Is it just me being cynical, or was the impromptu Team England visit to Auschwitz this afternoon just a MASSIVE PR opportunity??

(Yes, I know it's a dreadful thing to say, but I think it was!! Brazenly orchestrated. )

Of course it was "orchestrated" but only because the majority of all the teams participating have made trips either there or to one of the other camps. The German team went before we did and I can assure you that was a much bigger deal than us going. Whenever there's a major tournament like this they always get the teams to trudge round some local historical spot.

Auschwitz is hardly going to do them any good though. Talk about mental anguish when they should be relaxing.

We made a team raffle and I got Sweden.

Go Sweden! I had a tshirt already, very handy


/goes to IKEA

Is this right?? I haven't been aware of this.

I just felt it was a brazen attempt to up Team ENgland's anti-racism cred...

Er, jumbler whenever famous people are in that area, they always visit Auschwitz, whether they really want to or not. The media most likely would have had a go if they hadn't gone. And Nosferatu is also correct in that teams are encouraged to pay respects to/go around and get involved in the local community in some regard.

As for Euro 2012, watching some of the games, tbh I had zero interest in Poland v Greece as those are two teams who don't produce a lot of interesting football (Greece are boring as fuck every time I've seen em). Russia v Czechs was good though.

Yes. But only because the TV has been hijacked :|

Nope, not the case at all, to the extent that the teams visting Auschwitz and other camps have had those trips on their official itenary well in advance of the tournament starting. And even if it were just a publicity stunt, wouldn't it have been a pretty pointless one given the German team visited the site the day before (or whenever it was)?
