Whats all this negativity against the english? You would swear they had done us some misfortune in the past................!!
Although to be fair, my own bias against them is based more on how thw media portrays them (world beaters one minute, turnip heads the next) than the team itself. I always find it hard to understand how Irish football fans can feel so differently about players depending on whether they are playing for their club or their country. Especially when the game doesnt influence the Irish side. If anything, a successful English side would probably benefit Irish football at both club and international level

England for me. To be honest at the end of the day I live here and despite instances of racism (which would probably have occured in any country) it was a good home to my family when they came from Ireland and Burma. Probably the only country in the world refugees from Burma can achieve so highly and I'm really greatful for that.
Lot's of my best mates are English or part English and it's always great fun to watch in the school hall. I grew up with vindaloo on the school bus on the way in and three lions on the way home
I hate the no surrender chants and the racism but to be honest this is a tiny minority of fans around here. Most of my English mates don't know or care what no surrender means and none are racist (a few are black). Congered in the street with the England fans after winnign agains tDenmark a few years back and I have an England flag with 'Guildford SJA Cadets' written on it
I'd always support Ireland if we play England and I always watch the Ireland games if both are on at the same time but I will be supporting England in this world cup.

[Plastic Paddy]

I felt like that once (Euro 96) and cheered them on until I was accused of being a glory-grabber (by a group of England supporters, I might add). After that, I vowed never to bother following them again.

Anyone but England for WC2006. I don't really care who.

[FarBeag]

No way do i want England to win anything. My God if they win the World Cup we will hear about it for the next 50 years look, at 66 and they still go on about it. One think for sure is,if any of the nations that they get beaten by have bars in their little community in uk they will be shells after they are throught with them.Come on The Ukraine.

It's called hypocrisy and the Irish are excellent at it

True enough................thats is one thing about which we can hold up our heads and say "You will never beat the Irish"!!

I take it the quare one won't be reading this then . I think Sweden and possibly the Czech Republic, both of whom seem to have the highest amount of good looking fans - a descision came to after a long debate in Raffs (RIP) between Sylvo and myself during Euro 2004. Actually better not let Mrs O' B to read this!

[Galwayexile]

i will be living in the states by then so might as well support the USA in the world cup thats if i get too see any of the games of course, hope they are showing it there.

I hope england go out asap as sven turnip head does my head in, how on earth does anyone thing hes a good coach is my guess.

Its a terrible shame ireland wont be there

ESPN/ABC will be showing ALL the games, also in HD. It's a far cry nowadays over here compared to when I moved here first 13 years ago. There was never any footie on TV back then, now I've got the Fox Soccer Channel, GOL TV and Setanta USA showing soccer all the time every day plus the odd game on other channels such as ESPN and CCSTV (College sports). Satellite TV is great!

Not a chance. My voice would be raised by several octaves were she so to do, you can be sure of that.

How's life in the grim northern wastes treating you?

What else can they go on about? It's not like they've won anything else is it?
