[Brownie]

LESCOTT COMING IN AT THE BACK POST, LESCOOOOOOTTTTTTTTTTTTT

JOLEON LESCOTT FOR ENGLAND AND SCOTLAND!

 

[Brennan]

Supporting all the home nations is the way forward, and the ROI.

 

[Allezfan]

Could be dark horses the French like.

Overated if you ask me. And I know that's asking for them to score past ten us. But there's a big gap between being better than us, which I think they are, and being good enough to win it.

 

[Brennan]

Could be dark horses the French like.

I hate that term SO much. Teams i've heard labelled 'dark horses' so far:

-Russia
-Denmark
-Portugal
-France
-Italy
-Croatia

Where's the white horses ffs

 

[chicoazul]

Flagging this with Panorama.

 

[Brownie]

As if someone like Brennan was born in the 90s but is still over the age of 20. Time flies eh lads, doesn't it tho eh.

 

[Cena]

BrOwnZ be controversial lad and say you hate England coz i know you do

Boss being young and black and looking like Distin.

 

[chicoazul]

Pre match butterflies already ffs.

I think this is the reason i'm not as passionate as most England fans are, i hope our lads win like but i can't help but watch as a neutral rather then like it was my team. I get butterflies before Everton matches and they actually effect me emotions when looking at the results, never ever felt this way about England.

That said i do hope England do well, followed by Ireland, Croatia and The Netherlands.

Edit- forgot i got Sweden in sweepstake so support them too, come on sweeden FFS!

I think most people feel like that really.

chico - no

ceno - no

 

[EFCNIK]

I'd hate to feel that way about england at a tourny. No fun at all. I ****ing love England summers even though I know it'll end in misery.

 

[Huyton Layne]

Can't fully support a team that has a player or players I absolutely hate. Hate isn't something I can turn off just because someone gets picked for England. I hope Jags and Baines barely get played and do well when they do. I've got no respect for Downing and Gerrard, think Terry is a t*t, and Young is a diving little snide. Besides that, come on England.

 

[EFCNIK]

Oh wow the whole 'how can you support a team with THOSE players on it'.

We'll say 'its our country'

You'll say 'its just a piece of land and der kopites r playin'

We know how it goes. We know how some of you feel. A minority. A ****ing vocal minority mind. So let's not do it again.

 

[Brownie]

If we were good I'd think it was great, isn't much there to get the party started at the moment tho.
