Euro 2012

[Serendipity]

Good evening

Well, I'm sitting having a wonderful time (as always!) in PP but Little One has fallen asleep and I'd love to watch the footie tonight but can't obviously go out. Now, we have two digital boxes but I don't actually have a clue if either of them will show any of the matches? :-/ We have an 'NPG' box and an 'Fte' box .... any help from you guys/gals would be much appreciated

 

[Sparky]

It's on Spanish tv, on "Telecinco 5".

 

[Serendipity]

Ooooh thanks sparky I'll try to find it

 

[Serendipity]

Well I didn't have any luck lol. I found 'Tele 5' using both digital boxes but they both came up with 'Sin Signal'. There's lots and lots of channels but couldn't get that one or Mallorcan TV.... thought it quite odd if that's the local tele channels :-/

 

[Sparky]

The TV Mallorca channel has closed down i am afraid but there is IB3 which is the Balearic channel, not sure if they are showing any of the matches though .

There was a brilliant atmosphere in the Port last night, tvs everywhere and the whole place erupted with cheers, whistles, hooters and car horns when the final whistle went and Spain had won. Aparently it was the first time ever that Spain had beaten France in a competative match .
It was lovely to see and chat to a few forum members in Nostalgia later in the evening .

Watched the match last night in Nicos. Plonked myself right in front of the telly. Mrs Vince not impressed about the footy being on whilst we are here lol but adds to the atmosphere I say..

Well I hope all of you over there enjoy the match tonight, if you thought there was a large celebration last match, you wait until Spain win tonight, don't expect to get much sleep tonight , wish I was there with you, enjoy the atmosphere whatever the result
Vamos España

Hope you are right though watching Spain tonight they just don't seem to want it as much as Portugal .

 

[mwc]

This is more like it, much more like the Spanish way in extra time.

 

[mwc]

Cue the celebrations.

 

[sws97sdg]

Fantastic, enjoy the celebrations everyone, bring on Sunday

 

[Sparky]

The atmosphere was very tense on a hot and humid night, penalty shoot out , chants of "Iker, Iker, Iker" and finally an eruption of cheers, hooters, whistles and car horns.............can i get my BP down to a safe level before Sunday????? .

Apologies for talking football but if you are here you really can't help but get involved and enjoy the party .

 

[smg]

Fiesta & football on Sunday, then, can't wait !!

Vamos España

We were in PP for the World Cup Win, and wish we were there for the Euro's. As the Spanish know how to celebrate! We are going to be back for the 2014 World Cup but for the Euro 2012 final we will be cheering here from Dorset.

Also would like to add Vamos Rafa for Wimbledon!!

 

[LK1960]

What a great night but oh the tension!! Watched in The Golden Lion and the atmosphere was great. Just having coffee and paracetamol for breakfast . Tabled booked in El Bistro for dinner tonight and hopefully another good game (well it is the Euros so food and football allowed) then a few days to recover before Sunday . Can't wait. Vamos Espana!

So mad that we had to amend our arrival date! Should have arrived on Saturday. Loved the atmosphere in PP when Spain won the World Cup. Good luck Spain and will have to watch game here at home.

Was in the Square at Centric last night and the atmosphere was electric. Mrs Vincent left with the kiddies to return back and I ended up at Bar Coral watching the shoot out with the staff. Fantastic, roll on the final

Incredible, Nadal out, what a tennis match, don't worry though, there's always Sunday.
