I was on a Swiss Airlines training course at Zurich Airport in 2004 during the Euros. We stayed at one of the airport hotels for a couple of weeks (Mövenpick) The hotel was used by flight crews from all over Europe, and it was great watching the matches in the hotel bars with fans of the other countries. When England beat Switzerland 3-0, we even had the Swiss fans coming up to us, shaking our hands and saying 'well done'! Fabulous atmosphere!
Hi Nieve! I liked your story better too! I live in the US, and you could hear the collective sigh of relief from England all the way here after that last penalty kick! 😊. Go Chocolate!!!❤🍫
In DACH (German speaking countries), people tend to ring a bell or shake their keys when their team has a corner. It's kinda like a jinx/crossing fingers that their team scores. At least that's what I learned since moving here and going to stadiums all over.
Ringing the bell is no different than crossing one's fingers, toes or anything else superstitious that is a form of trusting in protection from something or someone besides the Lord who created you to trust in Him.
As soon as you said "serious story", I knew I was getting an amazing humorous tale with some possible chance of a tiny bit of truth. Did not disappoint
dont know where your videos went from my feed, but they are back for the last two or three videos, and its a breath of fresh air . you do great stuff. just appreciation
Running around the corner of an empty street at the end had me laughing out loud. Why on earth hasn't some mainstream TV producer seen her potential and signed her up?
Excellent vlog, Nieve! Swiss history has apparently been way more eventful than I thought it would be. I like that you're always respectful about all the fans of the teams you cover in your videos!
I'm so happy that Trent got his time to shine, even for 5 bloody minutes in being on the pitch. The lad had the most chances created out of any midfielder up until Southgate dumped him. And is the defending any better without him? "If I speak, I am in big trouble.."
I was NOT expecting you walking around my neighbourhood this weekend... I live between the Letzigrund and where you watched the viewing at Helvetiaplatz. I go past both on nearly a daily basis.... Thanks for coming to our lovely town!
The Tobler family's mansion is at the top of the hill behind the Zwingli Cathedral, everything costs a PACKET in Zurich, but it is a very beautiful city. My Dad used to play for a cricket team in Doncaster called Grasshoppers ..... Crickets/Grasshoppers geddit (same things).
Amazing video once again thank you!! The respect for the other fans was amazing honestly thought Willy wonka was a serial killer anyway 😂😂 love the chocolate side show
What a brilliant video. Not sure how you kept a lid on it when that final pen went in, but big up to you Nieve. Can you please go to Amsterdam for the semi final? 🤣🤣🤣
I'm English and live in Basel. I watched the game with two English friends in a great football bar here called "Didi Offensiv". We were the only non-Swiss there. Never any danger, after the result, but awkard being surrounded by disappointment.
"he deserves it" - great comment, your reading of the game was spot on. I hope you hit 1m subs soon and do more videos. Some Everton content would be droll, but appreciated ;)
Hopefully you did get some chocolates on the QT. Excellent presentation despite the raining cows. No bells were harmed in the making of this production.
I remember going to watch Leeds play Grasshoppers in UEFA cup 2001. a 2.1 victory, but my memory was of a very run down stadium, so I can understand the need for this one building a few years later. Funnily enough it never stopped raining the whole time we were there too!
"My hate speech worked" lol
You'll never sing that.
Plus, her story of the Grasshoppers was better than the real story. And we learned the history of Chocolate - what more could be in a video...?
Gravy's better, Gravy's better, Gravy's better than fondue! Gravy's better than fondue!
Hate speech for Wednesday "Wensleydale cheese is better than Edam cheese"
As we all know Stunt....city players cant take pens
its so amazing how she's sooooooo respectful of the people around her. so considerate, wish there were more people like you nieve, it would be great
Especially since she is for england lmao
Make yourself one of them and you’ll be doing a great deal towards that wish. Respect
Wow thats enough simping for me for one day
i think sh'is with the owner
The media love to depict England as being the worst scum of the world, make your own mind up and see it for yourself
I used to watch StuntPegg videos when I was young, to learn about cinematic storytelling.
-Martin Scorsese, probably
I can confirm this is an accurate quote.
Who ever came up with the idea of sending an Englishwoman to Switzerland during the Euros is a genius, and we love you!
Stuntpegg?
Netherlands next?
Netherlands ...and take Karl Pilkington with you.
@@Amethyst_Friend I thought a sponser sent her over, just like when she was sent over to watch F1 in Barcelona.
She sent herself

There is nothing better in this world than watching football with some strangers
Hope you had fun, Nieve
Fresh bagels with real butter. Thats up there.
@@VintageBall19 so very true
@@BenBebbington Also true.
You had me with that Grasshopper story. Love your sense of humour
Would be great for them to put that in the official history as a gag.
They are Swiss so it could be true!
Switzerland has the oldest continental european clubs... _grasshoppers_ and _young boys_ are simply british students' clubs from the 19th century.
That’s the kind of story you tell your nephew and then he repeats it 10 years down the line with utter confidence, generating a myth forever.
Thats the way to be a supporter and respect everyone. Great upload
To bring in some British music that could match:
1:24 "Tell me lies, tell me sweet little lies"
2:12 "Sweet like chocolate"
Haha, brilliant stuff. Or for 2:12 “chocolate (choco choco)”
@@stuntpeggnieve Oooh, how my brain succesfully secluded that one for so many years until now... 😂
@@stuntpeggnieve I Believe In Miracles, by Hot Chocolate. We might need that miracle in the next (and next) game.
Hi Nieve! I liked your story better too! I live in the US, and you could hear the collective sigh of relief from England all the way here after that last penalty kick! 😊. Go Chocolate!!!❤🍫
No sighs of relief from this Englishman after the last kick.
Plenty of yelling and screaming though.
I wonder when we'll make a substitution?
Knowing us, tomorrow!
Love it.
Please go to Amsterdam next.
_"My hate speech worked"_ 😂
How can it be hate speech when she's so correct
That salute to the Lindt at the end. You were so real for that 😂😂💯
😂💙
was that some joking i didn't get?
The Taylor Swift/Cruel Summer gag.🤣🤣🤣 ... I see you, funniest person on the internet.👀
😂💙
Impeccable use of the word ‘squozen’, perfect - I love it 👍
Filmmaking wise, the shot of the empty swing swinging after Switzerland lost is pretty outstanding. Keep doing what you're doing, Nieve.
Hands down the best football vlogger on you tube 👏
Too kind! 💙
Seriously love your content nieve.mainstream media where are ya?
Without a doubt.
Oh be quiet. Stop sucking up. Birds know jack about football. If it was a guy you wouldn't watch it.
@@stuntpeggnieveand the most attractive too 👌
Haha the lady and the bell. Some dark magic going on there.
In DACH (German speaking countries), people tend to ring a bell or shake their keys when their team has a corner. It's kinda like a jinx/crossing fingers that their team scores. At least that's what I learned since moving here and going to stadiums all over.
Nieve's hate speech > Lady with bell
Ringing the bell is no different than crossing one's fingers, toes or anything else superstitious that is a form of trusting in protection from something or someone besides the Lord who created you to trust in Him.

4:34 you face when Switzerland scores was the face of every English fan watching this game...
Running around the corner of an empty street at the end had me laughing out loud. Why on earth hasn't some mainstream TV producer seen her potential and signed her up?
Excellent vlog, Nieve! Swiss history has apparently been way more eventful than I thought it would be. I like that you're always respectful about all the fans of the teams you cover in your videos!
7:40 that smile slowly creeping across your face..you were gagging to jump up and scream ❤😂
Loved the Grasshopper explanation 🤣👍
I'm so happy that Trent got his time to shine, even for 5 bloody minutes in being on the pitch. The lad had the most chances created out of any midfielder up until Southgate dumped him. And is the defending any better without him? "If I speak, I am in big trouble.."
Agreed. While Toney’s PK was stone cold, I love Trent’s massive exclamation point! It spoke for itself in multiple ways… 😊
We'll ignore all the loose passes, poor positioning and his inability to hold onto the ball in midfield.
rj better
@@GamingRobioto Standard English play. It's designed to sucker the other team into thinking they have a chance of winning ...
Everyone scapegoated Trent as the problem so Southgate listened and after dropping Trent, England have been playing worse…
"Gravy is better than cheese fondue" has to be the most niche, least hateful hate speech. Genius.
Brilliantly done. How you kept quiet I’ll never know. Thank you!
I love your dry wit - it's absolutely brilliant.
Your respect is amazing - A credit to all fans and if only they were all like you!
Thank you for your English subtitles.
I'm into football and learning English.
It's very helpful to enjoy this channel.
Thank you! I appreciate it
"they were sentenced to life in prison" - bought this hook line and sinker lol I prefer yours as well even though it made me a bit sad
As someone who was watching the womens euros final in Germany, its very fun when your team wins and you're the only one that celebrates.
I want the grasshoppers story to be cannon please❤😂
😂. It was in the 1800s so there’s nobody that could really prove us wrong if we made the decision that this is now the story.
@@stuntpeggnieve Stomping on the grass at 6pm - outrageous! - they should have been sentenced to pick the harvest from the swiss spaghetti trees!
I also watched it in Switzerland as an England fan, really weird to see such familiar sights on this channel, thanks 😊
Loved how you were discreetly trying to celebrate among the Swiss fans.
Brilliant nieve, your so brilliant with the true one liners and the tunes to boot.
Awesome, this is your funniest video yet!!! You go StuntPegg
I would have jumped up and shouted “Yeeeeeeeeeeeeessssss. Come on”
Pint everywhere😂😂😂😂
I knew that Grasshopper story was too bonkers to be true lol
It wasnt true??? OMG ive told everybody about it, it's even in next weeks pub quiz
@@limmoblack
of cource it's not true
death penalty was abolished way before in Switzerland
@@desgrangesjean-marie5397 Perhaps TAA was the 'new' death penalty for the Swiss
There have been enough weird, arcane laws throughout history that every bit of that story apart from the "life sentence" was plausible.
@@tmage23
dude, we are talking about death penalty!
don't be silly !
I have absolutely no idea how you managed to control yourself there...
Great content as always !!
KRO
Spot on about Trent, crazy that he isn’t being played
Exactly! He’d be such a brilliant against the Netherlands especially if we play a back 3
😂😅😂😂 you had me with the grass hoppers explanation 😂😂😂… but you do come across as very genuine but I will learn …😅
The very best football reporting, what a star.
I was NOT expecting you walking around my neighbourhood this weekend... I live between the Letzigrund and where you watched the viewing at Helvetiaplatz. I go past both on nearly a daily basis.... Thanks for coming to our lovely town!
What a great vid. Your best so far and so funny.
Grasshoppers ... you had me going there :) The hop clinched it. Doh!
I loved this video...❤❤❤❤
Especially the grasshopper story...
Really got me there with that grasshopper story hahaha
Best footy channel on the interwebs.
"Gravy's better than cheese fondue, Akanji" - brilliant and also true! :D :D :D
you are so real with your description of trent. hope he plays some part in the next two games.
I was in Zurich nearly 20 years ago. Saw a U2 concert there. Alcohol was very expensive. Basel is also a nice city to go to aswell.
U2 are satanic band
As someone who didn’t know the history of FC Grasshoppers, I bought that story 100% lol 😂
They beat Young boys from Wankdorf😂
Grasshopper Club Zürich* is the correct name :) No FC or Football in there
Greetings from a Grasshoppers fan! Hopefully our multi decade spanning exile will soon be over
SCHEISS GCZ !!!!
Dream on
Didn't expect to see an English Brett Cooper today lol
The Tobler family's mansion is at the top of the hill behind the Zwingli Cathedral, everything costs a PACKET in Zurich, but it is a very beautiful city. My Dad used to play for a cricket team in Doncaster called Grasshoppers ..... Crickets/Grasshoppers geddit (same things).
This is a great idea for a video. Loved it
i laugh so much with ur stuff fr
love you nieve 🖤
💙💙💙
Look, we all know that Willie Wonka *is* a serial killer.
I was telling hubby that Taylor was playing at the stadium on my birthday, and then you mentioned it! My worlds colliding makes me happy.❤
Amazing video once again thank you!! The respect for the other fans was amazing honestly thought Willy wonka was a serial killer anyway 😂😂 love the chocolate side show
Great video as usual, very interesting learned so much about football thanks xxx❤
Great video 😎 , those penalties were the best I’ve seen England take , Toney is class with his no look one 🥳🥳🥳
Loved the ending, brilliant.
I gather StuntPegg is back in Spain for today’s match.
It is really the best Video I have seen about the Euro 24 on CZcams. Thanks much 🙏
Top tier banter.
This isn't just a video, this is an art
Your videos are so calm and intresting. Your voice is amazing
thanks
Hilarious upload! Great work :)
Great concept, beautifully executed 👍🏼
Appreciate this a lot!
Despite the weather it looks like you had a cracking weekend away.
It was brilliant, thank you! I’m used to rain anyway, being a Manc
I believed your Grasshoppers story😵💫 Not only football knowledge but funniest vlogger on YT 😎❤🙋♀️🇭🇷
What a brilliant video. Not sure how you kept a lid on it when that final pen went in, but big up to you Nieve. Can you please go to Amsterdam for the semi final? 🤣🤣🤣
another great video Nieve!
An England win and all that chocolate, like winning the double ❤
Wonderful video as always ❤
Loved this video. What a great idea to do this.
Awesome as always, "skoll!!"
An undercover adventure that had me on the edge of my seat.
I see a new Nieve video. I stop what I'm doing and watch.
I love it. Thank you very much :)
As always brilliant, you own a set girl!!!
I'm English and live in Basel. I watched the game with two English friends in a great football bar here called "Didi Offensiv". We were the only non-Swiss there. Never any danger, after the result, but awkard being surrounded by disappointment.
Well played. Credit to England too.
You have really opened my eyes to European football ! Thanks
No idea why I like watching you, but I really do!
when you said about the lady and the bell , i knew i loved you lol what a thought
"he deserves it" - great comment, your reading of the game was spot on. I hope you hit 1m subs soon and do more videos. Some Everton content would be droll, but appreciated ;)
Stunt pegg is like a fine wine as she ages she gets more beautiful
Gravy indeed. Well done!
'If Willy Wonka took a sinister turn'? You mean it didn't?😅😅
Really like your videos & approach!
Hopefully you did get some chocolates on the QT. Excellent presentation despite the raining cows. No bells were harmed in the making of this production.

I've been to that stadium, beautiful view from inside
Love the video! Should visit FC Winterthur next
Becuse of the rain I thought you where in Manchester 😂
Busman’s holiday 😂
