For the most part, the Changchun Friends website is not very active and has been superseded by the Tencent "Wechat" app by the local expat community. This website is maintained sporadically, people may still join and membership is still open, but if you are a spammer, stay away. The archived information here is still useful, but some may be out of date. There are plans to make it more useful for static information in the future. If anyone needs information about Changchun or China, you may post a message and it probably will get a response but not immediately.

THAT WAS BEAUTIFUL, just wish the chinese journalist could have shut his mouth while they were singing...

 

Yes, Spain won 4-0, but can you imagine what would have happened if they had lost, what the spanish supporters behaviour would have been? Cetainly not this...

 

Fields of Athenry

By a lonely prison wall, I heard a young girl calling
"Michael, they have taken you away
For you stole Trevelyan's corn
So the young might see the morn'
Now a prison ship lies waiting in the bay"

Low lie the fields of Athenry
Where once we watched the small free birds fly
Our love was on the wing
We had dreams and songs to sing
It's so lonely 'round the fields of Athenry

By a lonely prison wall, I heard a young man calling
"Nothing matters, Mary, when you're free
Against the famine and the crown
I rebelled, they cut me down
Now you must raise our child with dignity"

Low lie the fields of Athenry
Where once we watched the small free birds fly
Our love was on the wing
We had dreams and songs to sing
It's so lonely 'round the fields of Athenry

By a lonely harbour wall, she watched the last star falling
As the prison ship sailed out against the sky
For she'll live in hope and pray for her love in Botany Bay
It's so lonely 'round the fields of Athenry

Low lie the fields of Athenry
Where once we watched the small free birds fly
Our love was on the wing
We had dreams and songs to sing
It's so lonely 'round the fields of Athenry

Well, Germany beat Holland so this means they are pretty sure to go through to the quarter finals

Tonight Spain vs Croatia which looks pretty tasty!

Comment by Richard Roman on June 13, 2012 at 5:58

Russia and poland draw and the Czechs beat the Greeks. Now for one of the big matches - Germany and Holland! Holland must win to stay in the tournament

Comment by Richard Roman on June 12, 2012 at 7:01

Biggest shock of the first batch of matches was Holland losing.

Now, let round 2 commence!

Comment by Richard Roman on June 11, 2012 at 5:32

Early thoughts - Russia and Croatia looked good and Holland have problems. Spain and Italy have to be very wary of the Croats

Comment by Richard Roman on June 11, 2012 at 5:26

Spain and Italy 1-1

Ireland and Croatia - 1-3

Well, if Croatia can win their next match they have a chance of going through!

Comment by Richard Roman on June 10, 2012 at 8:02

Germany and Denmark!

So, Holland have a problem!

Comment by Richard Roman on June 9, 2012 at 17:18

Netherlands vs Denmark and Germany vs Portugal tonight

Pretty well all the matches look interesting but I am going with Germany and Holland tonight

Comment by Vinz on June 9, 2012 at 10:16

Let s see what Russia will do against a more worthy opponent such as England Ukraine or France (or sweden!) in Quarter finals. I used to be a fan of the Czech technique in the 90's but nowdays, they've lost it.

I believe making Russia a candidate for final victory after this game is a bit prematured.
