Really is about time we got these lads on English TV instead of the numpties we have commentating. Its always comedy gold.






Gilesy on Ronaldo - "Marilyn Monroe was the greatest star in the world but she was never known as a great actor. Ronaldo is like that."

Bill - "what do you think of Group B gentlemen?" (the group with Germany, Austria, Poland and Croatia)
Souness - "Looks a bit like World War II, Bill".

Dunphy - "Real Madrid are offering Ronaldo �250,000 a week after tax, he has a model girlfriend, he's 23, he's good looking, I hate him"

Bill: - "Just one interesting point. Italy have now qualified for the quarter final with 4 points ,when last time they failed to qualify with 5 points....whatever that means........i actually don't know" ..... que laughter from Gilesy and Brady

First Switzerland game:

Bill:"It's said the Barnetta is their best player, what do we know about him?"
Eamo:"Well he's Swiss so his mother was a banker and his father was a clock maker"

Souness - "I agree with Liam......"
Dunphy - "Its Eamon"
Souness - "Sorry, what's your name....haha....good job Liam's not here"

Dunphy - "Holland look good but they haven't played a proper team yet"
Brady - "They beat Italy 3-0 and France 4-1, two WC finalists. what do you mean a proper team?"
Dunphy - "Sweden"

Brady: "The games at five o'clock have been inferior."
Bill: "For what reason?"
Brady: "Well, I think it is cooler at night, Bill."
Bill: "Hold on, we're only talking 23 degrees. That's what it was like in Dublin today."
Brady: "Still hot. Still hot. I was playing golf today. I found it hot."
Bill: "Did you shoot a good score Liam?"
Brady: "No, not really."
Bill: "And were you as indolent as they (Romania and France) were?"
Gilesy: "You try playing golf at night Bill."

And best of the tournament
Souness unimpressed with Thierry Henry's bravery for the Italian second goal:
"He's got his hands down protecting his downstairs area and sticks his foot out like a nancy"
Eamo: "If you don't mind me saying Graeme, the shot was a bit low to have affected his downstairs area."
Cue Gilesy mumbling: "You don't know with these lads, Eamon
