It is now time to switch to a new Money AM football blog as the world cup is now over and we all look to the future.....World cup 2010 is over, Bravo Espana, and Forlan, once again and bring on the new season !.....I never expected the last thread to be such a success...thanks all.... so this new one might go on for years without the need to edit the title...we shall see...

Lol as predicted they have failed to find their way out of Wales and new plan is fan zone at Millenium Stadium Wednesday and if we win then Paris fan zone Sunday.

Be lucky if they can find the Millenium Stadium let alone Paris :-)

I do admire their enthusiam though but a bit worried about when their old enough to run the country

Hearing strong rumours that Cardiff City will be adopting the Icelandic "viking clap" next season in honour of their captain and Cardiff City stalwart Aarron Gunnarrsson and it is hoped that no English clubs fans will will take it the wrong way and think we are taking the p*ss .

Lol , as if :-)

Good luck tonight. We are on a roll and I can't wait to see Ronaldos's face when you win.

'Good Luck on Wednesday against Portugal'

from a brand new 'Wales Supporter'.

Messi gets 21 months in prison for tax fraud . Doubt it will be hard labour .

Any chance of Ronaldo getting the same preferably in the next hour and half.

Come on Wales do it for Aaron he's the one who has got us this far.

Aye, away the lads.

Gives the Ports what for...I'm sure they'll like it :-)

Messi won't go to jail. Sentences of under 2 years are not implemented. They have the same system in Italy. That's what kept Burlusconi out of prison.

That's funny .

Looks like the Welsh are going to get a fantastic welcome home. They did pretty phenominally well - and tons better than England.

Was always going to be a big ask without Ramsey who has been our best player throughout and so it proved.

Congratulations and well done to all our superstars from Burnley , Reading , MK Dons , Woves , Palace , WBA reserves etc on getting us as far as you did.

Now let's do it again at the World Cup.

Hope the Germans get totally stuffed tonight , another Vorsprung durch teknik final will bore the pants off us .

Well done France and Mark Cavendish!

Victor Valdes: Middlesbrough sign former Barcelona and Man United goalkeeper



Middlesbrough have signed former Barcelona and Manchester United goalkeeper Victor Valdes.

The 34-year-old, who has played 106 Champions League games, has signed on a two-year deal after being released by United in June.

Valdes spent time on loan with Standard Liege last season.

"You can't imagine how delighted I am because it's not usual to bring players like him to recently promoted teams," said head coach Aitor Karanka.

Valdes becomes Middlesbrough's fifth signing this summer, following Viktor Fischer, Bernardo Espinosa, Marten de Roon and defender Jordan McGhee.

Karanka told the club's official website: "He knows how strong this group is. It's a privilege for us to be able to bring a player like this to the club."

Well done France...fantastic European championships....Portugal are going to be tricky in the final......don't really want to mention it again but the team England are to have to step up a few gears to succeed in these tournaments because they are completely looking below par as it is .....

Yes good outcome for Wales and did their country proud but not as proud as they would have been if they had beaten England along the way.

England were lucky to get that last mn goal.....but perhaps deserved to win that game......why were there so many changes from one game to another......crazy.....we have the potential to do well but each time somehow the team blunders.....they were so poor against Iceland it's unbelievable.....

I would put it down to the incompetence of Hodgson , trying to be too clever . You should play your best team , what other manager did what Hodgson did , none they played the best team they had each game .

No matter what team England put out, they're not good enough, don't have the right mentality or determination...

IN other words totally crap, arrogant shits...
