I wasnt referring to the media, i was referring to the reaction of some people on here when confronted with an obvious bias in favor of a certain country despite it supposedly being a British organisation. Its almost like its being taken as an attack on England, with people getting offensive and not even taking the time to understand the reasons why the subject is being brought up in the first place and formulating informed responses instead of attacking Scotland, its team or its similarly trated neighbours.
Very immature.
I presented reasons why its annoying and showed that its persistant and not just a World Cup fad, i then stated ways that the BBC could very easily rectify it and then went about trying to show why some people could hate English people because of they way that they treat people when faced with the evidence as has been shown here.

That's why I said popular, instead of invented
If someone had posted a thread in a similar vein to your world cup thread, but about Scotland, how would you have reacted? Wouldn't you have seen that as an attack? You might want to think about the content of your posts next time if you did not like the response.
Very immature.
It has been pointed out then and now, that we cannot do anything, the English people are not the media. Set up a petition, march on London, just do something about it!
I think Foreverwar is a Scot, so not all the responses are from the English
