was always going to be a c**t of a group in there somewhere with three of the top seedings going to relatively weak sides. sure i've offended a greek or two there but hey ho.
tbf, Austria and Switzerland messed up the draw, not Greece, as the reigning champions always get first seeds...
Down with co-hosting big tournaments!

Always going to be the way with the joint hosts thing and Greece (albeit, holders) all seeded.
Nothing particularly mouth-watering outside of Group C, Spain get Sweden again and Romania and the Dutch that just qualified together. </BLOCKQUOTE>
italy and france also just qualified together, that group is weird, all four teams came from 2 groups.

its ok to cohost tournaments, just along as its two decent teams, not ***** like Switzerland and Austria who have no hope of winning the tournament. </BLOCKQUOTE>
Does it really matter if the hosts are ****?
I mean who cares really?...as long as they have decent stadiums to host the games...decent infrastructure to travel around in...and put on a good event that's all that matters...
