2016 was the only good time for us in this competition. When lewandowski opened the scoring against Portugal in the quarter final, I started to get excited. Was a nice 10 minutes
We were unlucky in ‘92 and went out in ‘96 on goal difference (we were going through until Seaman let the ball go through his legs when England pumped the Netherlands). We were shit at the last one.
I dont think we were terrible in 92. Only 8 teams qualified meaning, in theory, us being there made us one of the top 8 in europe.
We were in a group with the world champs Germany & a dutch team with - are you ready for this - Koeman, Bergkamp, Gullit, Rijkaard AND Van Basten. Only 2 teams could go through. We lost to both, but put in a good show. And then we fucking whipped the Euro 88 finalists. Like, absolutely hammered them. That’s not doing terrible. I think we could’ve qualified from the other group.
Poland equals pain

Should see my country(Scotland) on the list of 37 teams. Only ever qualified for 3 Euros and were terrible at them all.

Seaman knew what he was doing. He knew the group standings.

You played against England at all of them didn’t you? That’s some bad luck
