Re: The anyone but England thread!
 
Well, each to their own i suppose, i would support any of them apart from England to be honest, for the reasons outlined above.

Just remember that this is football we are talking about here, not a "we all hate the english" thing.

After all, i detest Manchester utd, but i dont hate the people of Manchester.

I work with a guy from Slovakia I asked him if he would be supporting the Czech Republic at the World Cup. He nearly fell of his chair laughing.

BTW OB if believe in this philosophy how come you weren't supporting Arsenal in the European cup final?

Nearly. Also, I needed them to lose to have a hope of my team getting into the champions league, so i'm not going to support them, am I?

However, England winning the world cup is of no consequence to Scotland at all, so the reasons are not really comparable.

In the european cup final. :banghead:

Spurs and Arsenal have a big rivalry hence you wanted Barcelona to win.

England and Scotland have a big sporting rivalry, hence scottish people don't want to see England win.

Whats the difference?

The difference being, that if Arsenal won the euro cup, Spurs wouldn't have qualified, 4th place or not. What the ****'s results were affected Spurs. England winning thw world cup has NO EFFECT on Scotland for any furture tournaments. What bit don't you get?

Are you forgetting Spurs finished 5th?

The final had no consequence to Spurs as they had already cocked it up.
