Andy McRae - I went to Germany, South Africa and Russia, and I have anecdotes to make your hair curl. Euro success means more than literally anything!

Rick - My favourite sporting moment (and only time I have seen my dad sing), was at Wembley for the quarter-final vs Spain in '96 with my dad and two mates.

Cassim Dawjee - World Cup 2010, sat behind David James' goal. Lampard struck a beauty of a goal that never was. England would have won had it stood. Heartbreak.

Laura Scott spoke to sports minister Nigel Huddleston about the Euros and England.

"I'm incredibly proud, they've achieved a huge amount already, there's huge anticipation about tonight and huge hope we go beyond tonight. We've got an amazing team and they really are acting like a team."

And if England went all the way?

"It would be amazing, it would be fantastic.

"Sport is lifting the mood of the nation. Football really does unite us in a very unique way.

"We're seeing it in the TV audiences, the catch-up, the radio audiences, it really is getting the attention of the whole country and bringing us all together at a time we all need to.

"It's happening at exactly the right time, in terms of we're making really good progress with the vaccination programme, we're now seeing the removal of restrictions, so to have great sporting success as well is fantastic."

Jack Grealish's, high school PE teacher Tom Seickell spoke to BBC Sport about the England star.

"Jack's always had that laid back attitude. How you see him on TV is how he is. We knew he was special player - his academic studies took a bit of a back seat.

"The first time I saw him play a pro game was against the team I support which was awful for me. I wanted him to score and do well but as long as he didn't win.

"He came to watch his cousin at the school and stayed around to present the trophies and stayed for like an hour taking pictures he's always had time for people.

"The hair and rolled down socks wasn't there in year 7 but by year 10 it was definitely his style."

Andy Benfield - I was at the losses in Portugal in '04 and '06. My St George painted face turned pink by my tears! To win would end a sense that loss is destiny.

Matt - I was lucky enough to be at Wembley for the semi-final of Euro '96. I remember my whole body cramping up during the penalty shootout.

Keith Ward - I was at all of the England matches in 1966 and will never forget the tension and then the elation of the final.

We've had psychic pigs and now we've got clairvoyant chickens, who are predicting an England win tonight!

Today Programme
BBC Radio 4

Speaking to the Today Programme, FA chief executive Mark Bullingham was looking ahead to tonight's game and Gareth Southgate's influence on England.

"We're incredibly excited about the game, it's going to be a huge one for the country, for the players.

"They're actually incredibly calm and everyone in camp is calm. Gareth’s done a great job of building a strong and resilient culture.

"Semi-finals are obviously very difficult and it's true to say that we have lost four out of five in major tournaments. But we believe in the team, we believe what they're doing and we're confident.

"Gareth has got a very strong bond with the players. But even those that didn't come through that pathway (of the under 21’s), he's created a strong relationship which he invests a huge amount of time between our tournaments and between the England windows, to spend time with players, to listen to them, and really build a strong relationship and I think that absolutely paid off.

"What you see is also what you see on the pitch, you know, when a player scores it’s a very natural reaction of all the players on the bench, there will be very supportive of that player and incredibly excited. It's like a band of brothers has been created and I think Gareth’s been at the heart of creating that."

Pavan - I was in Lisbon for Euro 2004 and saw us thrash Croatia. The euphoria was special. The fans were singing about Rooney being the next Pele.

Ray Green - I went to the World Cup to see England in 1966 when a season ticket for all matches cost only £10! Memorable moments.

Robert Lamont - Went to all England games at Euro '96 - even the final in my England shirt. So many great memories. I am going on Wednesday in the same shirt!

Think you need another flag there, Kev, probably worth getting two.

BBC Radio 5 Live

One Denmark fan thinks the gods will be shining on his team later.

He told BBC Radio 5 Live's Alistair Bruce-Ball: "We are a team, we are not a group of individuals.

“Do you honestly think that the English team will have formed that magical ring round Eriksen when he fell down?

“That’s when the football ghosts decided it’s Denmark’s turn again."

Looking like the next England star there, Gabe!

Who else is already in their shirt then?

Steven King

Safwan Mohammed - I was in Nice in 2016 to see that catastrophe vs Iceland. I never thought I would see England make me happy again...it might just happen.

Oluwole Alfred - I watched the last 16 match between England and Germany at the South Africa 2010 World Cup where the Three Lions were beaten 4-1. It wasn't good.

Mike Barber - Gelsenkirchen 2006, Kyiv 2012, Brazil 2014, Nice 2016. My first-hand experience of travelling to major tournaments - defeat.

Raheem Sterling's former PE teacher says he can't wait to see his former pupil play later.

Paul Lawrence was talking to BBC Radio 5 Live's Chris Sutton, Rachel Burden and Alistair Bruce-Ball.

He says Sterling was "always a nuisance on the pitch".

"It's always been his dream to not only play at Wembley Stadium, but go and perform at Wembley Stadium. Score goals, make goals!" he added.

The Prince of Wales invited the Band of the Coldstream Guards to play an instrumental version of the rousing football anthem Three Lions, at his London residence.

Ronan Dhadra - As much as I love hearing 3 Lions and Sweet Caroline, hearing the 60,000 at Wembley belt out a rendition of Atomic Kitten after an England win would make my night!

Mark Hughes - 25 years living in Denmark, will watch the game with my Danish teenagers but tonight not wishing for my children's happiness. Sorry kids.

Yes, you read that right... and Mark, we all agree. Nothing wrong with a bit of tough love, especially when it comes to England!

Ewan - Just had a complaint come through from a Mr Kane about his recycling. Defo a sign Harry Kane will score tonight. It's coming home!

Nancy Boye - As I was driving into Mansfield town centre for work this morning (in my 15 year old Fiesta), my radio, which has been broken for years, started crackling and music began to seep through the dusty speakers. The song the local station was playing? You guessed it...Three Lions.

Anon. - My sign of it coming home was that it was pouring outside this morning and my cat Adam wouldn't come back inside. I called him several times and he was still outside. However, later when I left for work, there he was. He'd come home. (He's not a black cat, don't worry!)

Lol...thanks for that, whoever you are.

Now we just need Harry Kane to carry out one of the team's inflatable unicorns as the England mascot tonight.

Oh, and to make sure they clinch victory of course.

What more could you ask for on a Wednesday afternoon than Bukayo Saka scoring, with himself as the ball on a unicorn?
