    Dilemma for if France knock out Ireland

    I'd usually support France in any major tournament Ireland aren't part of (howya World Cup 02) and would buy a France tracksuit top or a jersey, but would this be at all acceptable if they knock us out?

    Would it depend on the circumstances?

    I'm still going to if it happens anyway but I'd like to know what level of abuse I'd get whilst doing so

    what a waste of good cyberspace.
    I like high energy football. A little bit rock and roll. Many finishes instead of waiting for the perfect one.

    Wouldn't bother me in the slightest, and don't see why it should bother anyone.

    You've said if Ireland were there, you'd follow them. So if France get there, Ireland won't and there'd be no question of being disloyal, etc..

    I'd say you'll get more abuse for starting this thread than supporting France.

    Personally, I can't stand them, so wouldn't be supporting them anyway unless they were playing England.

    Spain for me. Have supported them at every international tournament since 1998.

    You could support them, but only in the manner of Éamonn Dunphié, by insisting that Thierry Henry is a good player, not a great player, by calling Abidal a clown, and by demanding Dominech's head on a plate if they fail to win any given game by at least six goals, as is the birthright of France.
    You can't spell failure without FAI

    The only dilemma you should be thinking of is whether you'll be wearing green or white to South Africa!

    If Ireland run France close I would watch France in the WC to see how they got on. Wouldnt support them. Pretty similar to how wouldve watched the Swiss in recent tournaments. Anyways we're gonna beat them so case closed!!!
