Due to some technical mumbo jumbo that we’re not paid enough to understand, our world famous Euro 2008 Drinking Game has gone a bit retro today. We could pretend it was done on purpose in honour of a good Dutch team that look like they could actually win a trophy, which is about as retro as retro can get … er … but we didn’t think of … er.

So purely in honour of a good Dutch team that look like they could actually win a trophy, which is about as retro as retro can get and not at all due to a technical problem, here’s today’s drinking game.

Holland v Russia - Sat. 7.45pm ITV1/RTE2
General Forfeits

- two fingers if the commentators mentions something about it being a really good tournament so far.
- a bottle of champagne and a spoonful of suger if they use the phrase ‘the bestest, most fantabulous supercallifragilisticexpialidocious tournament EVER’

Holland

- two fingers every time the phrase Dutch Masters is used during the match.
- two fingers every time the phrase Dutch Courage is used during the match.
- ten fingers if the phrase Dutch Oven is used at any stage during the match.

Russia

- two fingers if the commentator mentions that Guus Hiddink should know a lot about the Dutch players in a way that suggests he’s a bit of a peeping Tom. (He’s not though)
- a bottle of vodka if any commentator tries to discuss Tolstoy’s philosophical views and how he expressed them through his characters in War and Peace.
