June 27, 201015 yr glad thats all over :) im sure everyone will make a fuss over the final though :( but hopefully at least people will get rid of those horrid car flags now.
June 27, 201015 yr Author Well, that's it over for another four years.... England have LOST 4-1 to Germany... What do you mean there's still the quarter finals, semis and final to go.....? Well, let's face it watch the general interest in this country tail off dramatically now that England have taken a dump........ :lol: :lol: :lol: Honestly, what a bunch of over-rated, third-rate tossers they are.... No doubt they'll bitch and complain about the one bad reffing decision, and just totally forget about the fact that Germany put TWO more past them in the space of three minutes in the second half... Put it this way, okay, the ball DID cross the line today, sure, but it DIDN'T in 1966... The universe has restored the balance.... Finally...... :lol: :lol: :lol: Now let's draw a liine under this, and put the stupid plastic flags on a landfill somewhere......

June 27, 201015 yr Author erm...it DID cross the line in 66 m8... and surely you mean recycle the flags! :lol: Debateable... :P And, can you even recycle these things anyway....?
June 27, 201015 yr erm...it DID cross the line in 66 m8... And it's pure coincidence that you as an Englishman are saying this... :naughty:
June 27, 201015 yr And it's pure coincidence that you as an Englishman are saying this... :naughty: maybe, but on the other hand it didnt matter, we would have won without that goal! :P
June 28, 201015 yr Author Surprise, surprise, I barely saw any cars or vans with a stupid plastic "Ingerland" flag on them today..... :lol: :lol: Serious point though, why is it the English only seem to show a bit of "National Pride" is when a stupid football match is at stake...? England, the country who gave the world Shakespeare, Marlowe, Wordsworth, Austen, Percy and Mary Shelley, Byron, Keats, Quentin Crisp, George Bernard Shaw, Lennon and McCartney, Morrissey, Thom Yorke, P J Harvey, John Lydon, Siouxsie Sioux, Glastonbury and Reading Festivals, Punk Rock, Acid House, Indie, Goth, etc, all this great music, art, literature and culture, and what does it denizens celebrate the most...? A bunch of barely literate, overhyped, overpaid morons who cant even kick a pig's bladder around a field particularly well.... I think the English need to get their priorities straight and recognise that there is so much more to their country than fukkin' football..... -_-

June 28, 201015 yr Author Other than George Bernard Shaw being Irish, I get your point and appreciate it. Norma Sun's melting my bloody brain today...LOL... But, can you honestly think of anything more quintessentially "English" than "Pygmalion" anyway..... :lol: :lol: There's several others on my list you could probably argue are sort of "Irish" too by descent (Lennon and McCartney, Morrissey and John Lydon...) ;) And I cant believe I left out Joe Strummer... Very bad of me....

Very bad of me.... Even worse - and all too typical of the British - you didn't name a single scientist. Don't the likes of Isaac Newton and Charles Darwin deserve a mention?

You really need to get it into your head that not all England fans are knife wielding skinhead BNP voting thugs.
June 28, 201015 yr Oh dear oh dear, so wonderfully arrogant. You really need to get it into your head that not all England fans are knife wielding skinhead BNP voting thugs. thats not true. most arent clever enough to know about political parties :P
June 29, 201014 yr Author Oh dear oh dear, so wonderfully arrogant. You really need to get it into your head that not all England fans are knife wielding skinhead BNP voting thugs. Talk about missing the point ENTIRELY.... :rolleyes: What you trying to say then James...? That they're isn't more to England than football...? Prat.... No one even mentioned "knife wielding thugs" in this particular context... I just would've thought that any "proud" English person should really find it sort of depressing that the only time when "pride" or sense of "Englishness" is ever shown by the majority of its denizens is when it's football and apparently nothing else.. CASE IN POINT - all the England flags disappearing off of cars/vans in the past couple of days.. Sort of proves my point dunnit...? So much for "pride" when this is the only time it seems to surface, and then just as quickly dissipates when your useless bunch of assholes take a dump against the better team.... Fair enough, I'll concede that not ALL football fans are skinhead thugs, but, let's face it, all skinhead thugs certainly seem to be football fans in my experience..... Suede, you're nit-picking a wee bit, but I guess I should've mentioned science..... ;)
