Before their sixth Saturday sports show began, Chappers and Dave linked up live with Vernon from pool side at the Portuguese villa. So adamant were they to ram home the fact that they were by the pool, they had engineer Richard spend the entire length of the conversation splashing the water for a nice atmospheric effect. Dave said Richard really was a martyr to the cause. Despite the disappointingly overcast weather conditions in Portugal today, both Dave and Chappers were in reasonably good moods. They chatted about England’s form so far in the tournament with both Vernon and his guest Rob, a comedian who no one had ever heard of. Dave was talking bollocks again, and discussing England through his big blue Everton rose tinted spectacles...i.e slagging off everyone else apart from Wayne Rooney. Vernon has Denmark in his sweepstake and sees them as a good outside bet for the championship. Regular readers will of course know that I have Sweden in the chrismoyles.net messageboard sweepstake, and at the moment they are doing me proud. Denmark play Sweden on Tuesday night in their final group game...bring it on is what I say. Mark and Dave stayed outside for the opening link, although Dave was unable to recreate Rooney’s first goal on Thursday by heading home Chappers cross of the England beach ball into the pool goal. Dave didn’t connect because he said he would have ended up flying half way across the pool with a huge amount of highly expensive radio equipment following him in there. Instead the two of them decided to head back inside to resume proceedings from the makeshift indoor studio, with Chappers a lot more impressive at driving the desk than he was last week. Rachel was producing and Jocelyn helping out, while Moyles chilled by the pool in his shades. Chappers isn’t talking to Rachel after she gave away his football (albeit signed by Fatboy Slim) as a prize on yesterday’s breakfast show. He said he was genuinely gutted and the fact that the replacement ball they’d bought was worse has only annoyed him even more. Dave talked about the various departments of Radio One that had sent out staff to the villa, which surprisingly doesn’t so far include marketing. He said marketing usually send out 4 people to big trips abroad like this, normally cos they need to put up a banner or something (one person allocated per corner of banner) but this year it seems they’ve decided against it, perhaps realising that blu-tac will do the job without anybody from marketing having to be there.

Everyday on breakfast Dave is educating us all on the Portuguese language, and Chappers decided that now was time to see what he’s really made of and work out if he has actually learned anything useful over the pastv week and a bit. The way to do this was to ask him to translate some phrases recorded by Portuguese locals about the Chappers and Dave show back into English. He (as predicted) failed miserably and as a result opened it up on the text, promising a signed England shirt by all the team for the first person to correctly guess this particular phrase he was struggling on. That is obviously a huge prize and was a major incentive for the thousands of texts to come flooding in. Unfortunately Dave had made one of his legendary balls ups. He didn’t stress that the prize up for grabs was actually his England shirt, signed by the Chappers and Dave team (aka him, Mark, Rach and Joss) - not an England shirt signed by the actual England team. Dave said that there was no doubt the signed Chappers and Dave shirt would be worth more on eBay anyway. It was eventually won by Inis from London, who correctly translated the phrase as “Daves the one who snores, Chappers supports Manchester United and they’re the most popular men on Radio One”. I’d check the translation of the last bit myself..

PETER REID ON THE SHOW:
Image
Mark and Dave went off down to a swanky hotel in Lisbon yesterday to interview the one and the only Peter Reid, ex Man City, Leeds, Sunderland and now Coventry manager - plus part time pundit for the beeb in big tournaments like this. I’ve always liked Reidy and in this interview he came across as a top man as well. First of all Mark and Dave started off chatting to him about England’s form so far, in particular the contributing factors to the French defeat and Michael Owen’s poor performances. Chris blamed David James principally for Sunday night (despite saying he is still our best keeper) and said that despite the fact Eriksson’s substitutions backfired, he could see his thinking in making them. He said that like most Englishmen he was heartbroken on Sunday, but now was in buoyant mood after the Swiss game (a professional performance), which he watched in the local park by the International TV Centre in Lisbon on Thursday. Reidy praised the atmosphere and admitted that he did party quite a way into the night afterwards. As regards Owen, Peter said he could see Chappers point in dropping him for Vassell, but he still thinks you’ve gotta keep Owen in the team for Monday. I agree 100%. Vassell is a good sub but Owen is a big, big player for us and is one of the first names on the team sheet every time. Reidy said mark his words, Michael will score against the Croats on Monday. Let’s hope he’s right...

The next topic of conversation was what it’s like working for the BBC at big tournaments like this. Reidy said he just thanked the lord Lineker was there asking the questions as he hasn’t a clue what Hansen, Strachan and Schmeichel are saying most of the time. I’m sure the feeling’s mutual Peter.
Peter - I think one of the good things about the BBC is that they’ve obviously got me in for my good looks and Jamie Redknapp in for his tactical knowledge
(Dave goes into a fit of laughter and Chappers laughs too)
Peter - So y’know you’ve gotta give them all credit...(laughs - then talks to Dave)..what are you laughing at?
(everyone laughs again)
Chappers - Jamie Redknapp’s tactical knowledge!! (all laugh once more)


REIDY’S PLAYER OR NOT A PLAYER:>>>>
Chappers explained how the competition worked last week and how the names were either those of real players or those of French sculptors etc. Dave gave him five names to correctly identify...
1 - Hakin Yakin - Yep, correctly identified him as a player (1 pt)
2 - Rui Varga - Again right, identified him as not a player (2 pts)
3 - François Truffo ...
Peter - Now he’s gotta be a sculptor
Dave - He’s actually a French film director I think. Right you’re on a roll, 2 more to go..
Peter (interrupting) - Well I’ve seen his films and he should get into sculpting!!
(Chappers and Dave laugh)
(3 pts)
4 - Igor Tudor - Yes, player (4 pts)
5 - Ian Harte...
Peter - Leave me alone!!
Yep, the whole point of that feature was for an Ian Harte gag. Peter said he couldn’t possibly comment on that one and said it was one of the few times that anybody had ever left him completely speechless. Dave and Mark wished him the best of luck for next season at Coventry and Peter gladly accepted Moylesy’s invitation of a pint with him, Dave and Chappers one night, although he said his body is of course a temple.

THIS WEEKS FEATURES AND CHAPPERS AND DAVE ON TOUR:
This weeks sporting number one was chosen by Steve from Street in Somerset, Gazza’s fantastic volley against Scotland at Wembley back in Euro 96. He said he was behind the goal where he scored and in the mass celebrations that followed it he found himself about 10 rows down embracing some huge black guy who’d he’d never even seen before his life. The record on top spot at the time was Killing Me Softly by The Fugees (a record I know Dave hates). From this perspective it was therefore an ill advised choice, and from another perspective too...
Chappers - As if the Scots don’t love us enough at the moment for banging on about being at Euro 2004...
Dave (interrupting) - This’ll help then eh!!

3 And In this week was finally won by Jenny, who beat Hannah to claim Wimbledon tickets for Court Number One this Friday. The feature must have gone on for well over five minutes as these two constantly stumbled at the finish line, before Jenny thankfully got three in a row right. Dave said it was like pulling teeth. Today was also week one of Chappers and Dave’s new feature “Portugoal Of The Month”. It’s a good idea actually. The 3 best goals of the week were played out and in four weeks time there will be 12 of them, from which then the Radio One audience have to pick the top 3. If their opinion matches that of the special celebrity panel, they win access to all of Radio 1’s Summer Events in the UK - a top notch prize I’m sure you’ll agree. This weeks best three goals were Ruud Van Nistelrooy’s equaliser for Holland against Germany (Goal A), Henrik Larsson’s diving header for Sweden against Bulgaria (Goal B) and *gulp* Zinedine Zidane’s free kick against England (Goal C). Goals D, E and F will follow next Saturday (and if Milan Baros’s goal from tonight isn’t in there then there's no justice in this world). I know I’m more eagle eared than most listeners but I did notice that the commentary played of Larsson’s goal was wrong, as they played his second goal (the tap in) and not his first (the diving header).
