Match Day Quater Final England v Italy Kiev
So on to the game.
The Hotel Polisok - part of the campsite complex - after the penalties its now about 3am and everyone is a bit quiter than normal. Bloody penalties! Gutted, but at the same time I think England put up a battling display. Hopefully Roy can lead us to better things, he has the support of the fans.

Match Day Group D England v Ukraine Donets'k
So D day for group D. We needed at least a point from the game to guarantee going through as France wouldnt lose to Sweden would they!
So cruch time, I have seen us collapse on the pitch before and head out of a tournament when we face the host nation. Tonight it would be 46,000 Ukranians v 4,000 England. The atmosphere was incrediable, the noise and passion from both sets of supporters spin chilling, hair raising, this is what tournaments are all about.
We win 1-0 and a brilliant defensive display. The Ukranians are still happy for us despite us knocking them out. We are extra happy as Sweden beat France and we top the group. Back to Kiev we go to face the Italians. Wooooo Hooooooooooo
