Well well. England have surprised many from their lacklustre performances at the start of the tournament to a very good performance to get to their second successive Euros final.

A much better performance and will not face an in form Spain who have won all 6 of their matches at the tournament.

Dave Leitch is still out in front in our competition and there is still points up for grabs in the final on Sunday.

Well, after 4 weeks and 51 games, the Euros come to an end.

England continue to wait for it to "come home", and despite playing much better in the semi-finals and final than they did in the early stages of the tournament, they came up against the best team in the competition. Spain deservedly won, even after a brilliant equaliser from Cole Palmer. For large periods of the game, England could not match the pressing game of Spain.

Only 2 of our entrants predicted Spain to win the tournament, and our winner was one of those making a last ditch effort!!

Congratulations to Alison Fawdrey who wins a signed Barrow AFC shirt and 4 hospitality tickets to a home game for the forthcoming season.

Dave Leitch takes second prize of £40 and third prize of £20 goes to Philip Benn. Prizes will be on the way this week.

We now look forward to the new season with Barrow kicking off in a few weeks time. Couple of good wins in pre-season. Let's hope we can go one better this season.

Thanks to all who entered and also a big thank you to Barrow AFC for providing the first prixe.

WOW! Thank you, Chris for all your hard work in this competition. It went right down to the last match, and I'm sorry England I didn't back you for the win:)

Thanks for all your hard work Chris - much appreciated

And a big thank you from me.

My congratulations to Alison and the runners-up in what was a very close contest.

And well done to Spain. Currently the best team in the world?
