I can see how this is confusing people. The media aren't in any way upset by you, and
if England should lose, there will
still be plenty of media hype - either blaming the ref, or Sven, or both - as well as venom directed at one or two players who missed a penalty.
However, any England supporters will have trouble understanding your 2-way stance on their fortunes. They'll expect you to either support England, or to be slowly eaten by hungry maggots. I don't think they'll be appeased by your attempt at diplomacy.
As for the media, in the unlikely (
) event of England winning the World Cup, the hype you've seen will be as nothing compared to what we'll have to stomach then!
