    I watched the second half last night and i jumped with joy when croatia scord the last goal. I dont know why but i always hope england lose, i dont know if it is the press or what. The english always seem to give us support when we qualify.

    Thats cause they claim half the team is theres anyway.

    I just hate the English International side cause they believe they are world beaters.

    I've said on other posts that you always here this 'on our day we can beat anyone crap' well that happens when they meet a top side on their day? They generally lose and make excuses for why the mighty england didnt win.

    The england set up from top to bottom is as big a mess as the FAI, look at the appointment process of their last manager, miss out on their top target and just panic appointed anyone, and both had the same results.

    a number of reasons

    - Maggie Thatcher
    - John Motson
    - English Papers
    - Scumbag Burberry clad Hooligan fans (Minority I know)

    I never like English team sports to win (Ruggerby, Cricket, Footbal, Waterpolo), however on an Individual level like Ahtletic or Boxing, I would usually want them to win (except, Eubank, Hammed and Hedman)

    I dont like to see them win because when they do, its all I hear about in the press and tv!! When France/Italy or anyone else wins a world cup football/rugby etc. we see the aftermath for a couple of days and then nothing. But when En-ger-land wins a trophy? Christ, they never stop talking bout it. Its much funnier seeing them having national inquiries/crises when they squander their talent as they always do.

    You know the song three lions with the line '40 years of hurt'.Well thats how long we have suffered listening to them going on and on about it.They are insufferable.
    Also most Scousers would not identify themselves with the rest of england.
