Glasgow actually.

Oh and i didnt mention the China / India thing as it was a pointless statement, China and India does not have football as a national sport.

Its a bit like saying India should be good at snowboarding because they have so many people.

Boom! Boom!

Re: The anyone but England thread!
 

It's interesting how the scottish whine about 1966, and yet TBR has mentioned 1967 enough times in this thread. Double standards eh. ;)

Re: The anyone but England thread!
 

So now it's "OUR" media, and you have a problem with them going overboard about "OUR" team ...

Re: The anyone but England thread!
 

Not really pointless is it though? If it is pointless, it makes your point, useless then. Saying about it is not their national sport is just a weazel out isn't it? What about the USA? Out of the teams at the world cup, they probably have the largest population, yet don't have a chance.

Great, isn't it? :p:

Re: The anyone but England thread!
 

Don't be fooled, if it were simply a case of media hype they would buy the Scottsman or Daily Record.

Re: The anyone but England thread!
 

slightly off football, I like how it is england and scotland for football, but britain for athletics, cause the english need the scots to do well.
:angel: :D :erm:

EDIT: I am a bit peeved off when I hear about england all the time, after all they are not the only team in teh world cup.

I just hate it getting thrown down my throat and listening to the commentry mention england in every and I mean every game. Why do we need that?

and what amazes me is that they always say who they are going to meet int teh quarter finals and semis and if not finals, they have not got there yet, they probably will not either, god I hope not :angel:

I take it you don't watch the Commonwealth games England 54 gold medals, Scotland and Wales 6 each :D :p:

Re: The anyone but England thread!
 

I've mentioned 1967 twice in response to allegations of Scotland being poor.

If thats double standards compared to the English media banging on about 1966 almost daily since 1966 then there's something wrong.

Re: The anyone but England thread!
 

Hmmm winning one match does compare to winning the World Cup doesn't it :p:

Re: The anyone but England thread!
 

Yes,
Your media goes on about England constantly without a single thought about the fact that they broadcast into other countries. Why should we concider ourselves part of the Uk when they dont concider the fact that we are in the UK too.

Re: The anyone but England thread!
 

And made full use of those posts, with a child-like attitude I might add.

Look familiar ?

Re: The anyone but England thread!

Humped!

Off the park!

Glad you hate it!

It does when you just humped (off the park) your rivals right after they win the World Cup, right when they are at their supposed peak in terms of football at their own ground, in front of thier own fans even.

For the Tartan Army to come strolling down the road and win a glorious game where we utterly take the p*ss - then yes it quite possibly does compare.

FIFA rank them 5th in the World.

Re: The anyone but England thread!
 

I never said I hate it.

That would give you exactly what you crave, the "belief" that you can wind me up. As if ! :D
