a quick rerun through the posts euro pull out,

shows that even if pirlo lands a quarter point touch from 3 selections for player of the tournament at 100 to1 from dan childs,the pull out will show horrendus losses,tony cass tipped spain 3 pts but these to tips apart the rest is pitiful,looking back now a number of pundits were convinced ireland would qualify,germany wouldnt get out of the groups and russia were a knocking bet for everything but the boat race,ronaldo at 14,s could also be in a lrage deadheat for topscorer
