German TV had a cracking late night pub based Euros show every night. Couldn't understand a word of it but it seemed like a good format rather than the stuffy studio / panel based old hat we have. They also had a live audience at their coverage post match for all the evening games. 

Watched it half cut in a Dusseldorf hotel room and would agree.

... and especially whilst trying desperately to avoid clinical hypothermia on a howling wet January day in Greenock, Methil or Arbroath (locations picked at random btw).

I’ve been at Arbroath in December. I am still defrosting, years later.

Took the wife to a cup tie in Methil a good few moons ago ... freezing January day with horizontal rain sheeting in across the Forth ... she never spoke to me for three whole days after that ... 😎

Denzel Dumfries doesn't quite have the same ring as Denzel Washington

Especially, if you've had the misfortune to visit Washington (Tyne and Wear)

New York (Tyne and Wear) wasn't up to much either

Easy money for the bookies. They know the England fans will stump up, so they keep the odds low to reduce their exposure.

England are also favourites on the betting exchanges and with Pinnacle i.e. where the sharp money goes. Retail bookies largely just copy these prices with a bigger margin.

You can definitely argue there are stronger teams than England - and I'd agree - but you've got 4 of the 5 pre-tournament favourites all in the top half of the draw while England's path to the final is two ties where they'll be odds-on to qualify.
