Football

[dieselboy]

World Cup is working out like WW2 -France have forfeited, the USA turned up late, and England are left to fight the Germans!

Just what my colleague said this morning. It's very entertaining!

Paper read last night that the French are blaming us! (English)

[dieselboy]

You want the Americans to win, Russia to come a close second and the British empire to be put in the dustbin of history?

Fair enough, but Russia aren't even in this world cup

Thats just the point of view as seen by an American, so I thought?

[John h]

He started it!

Maybe the thread title should have read;

If you hate football don't look.

I assumed it WAS going to be an anti-football thread, not a troll stirring things up.

OK Vince,

fair point

[JUDWAK]

... so if you don't like football (who gives a f*&k) move along to the next thread, the title makes clear what the subject matter is.

I can't believe there are no red blooded patriotic Englishmen on this forum. What's the matter with you all? Anyway, good luck for tonight - from a Scotsman who genuinely hopes you do well.

players may be overpaid, but football is a private buisiness which can pay players as much as they want.

since England are playing......im pretty sure the players on the England squad are all.......English.

being patriotic is for ones country not ones home town or city team.

so just because there are alot of foreign players in the football leagues....that does not stop me being patriotic for my country....England.

George, normally your excusably daft, but that deserves a YOu're out your tree!! What has flag waving and supporting England got to do with the BNP? It ####es me off that whenever someone want to show a little support to England they get called racist.

I do consider myself reasonably patriotic, who are you to tell me otherwise? I'm proud to support England for all its flaws and good points, and hope they do well in everything they are involved in. Then the rest of the UK and Commonwealth after.

I'm enjoying the whole thing, love watching all the games, been good fun. I'll watch the rest regardless who's involved, but be nice if England are still involved.

If you don't like football don't watch it, but don't tell others how to think and act.

well tell me one team that represents its country with only that country's people in it? There is none

WTF? The one thing you can say about the England team on the pitch is it English people playing, not much else is in footie these days.

As Vince said, you can post what you like, but if you post what I consider drivel, I'll call you out over it, especially if you're going tell me I am not patriotic, or what I can or can't do...

What has flag waving and supporting England got to do with the BNP? It ####es me off that whenever someone want to show a little support to England they get called racist.

who said owt about racist?
waving the flag to make people feel patriotic is what they do
feeding football is far better than feeding the bnp
but by what i read the reply i put it in was pionting out that they both wave it
but we only feel patriotic about what we want to
some see the flag and go all patriotic with out no thought

I do consider myself reasonably patriotic, who are you to tell me otherwise? I'm proud to support England for all its flaws and good points, and hope they do well in everything they are involved in. Then the rest of the UK and Commonwealth after.

and right fully so iam not saying other wise iam pointing out why alot of patriotic people boycote football
i feel more for the uk than most do

I'm enjoying the whole thing, love watching all the games, been good fun. I'll watch the rest regardless who's involved, but be nice if England are still involved.

and if they not? what do i do then?

If you don't like football don't watch it,

i dont do football

but don't tell others how to think and act.

so whats this then?

iam not your just taking it that way
but thanks i will keep posting
has iam sure you will
we are all grown up here

[che2318]

no

private buisiness yes
but its not allways been private buisiness has it
you lot feed that private buisiness?

its not patriotic to to feed a private buisiness is it?

they put on an england bagde that makes you feel patriotic?
so do the bnp

so...you dont feed private buisiness then? where do you shop? most things you buy are from a private buisiness.

as for only feeling patriotic about what we want to...

I see the flag and feel patriotic because of what it stands for, for the years, decades and centuries of strife that was endured so we still have this nation under our feet. I am patriotic all the time except it shows more during events like the world cup etc. this mainly due to the fact if one is patriotic nowadays it is seen as they are racist, which I am not.

I joined the Army because i love this country and like TonyN said ''for all its flaws and good points''.



im not bothered about football being a private buisiness as it is a sport. it provides jobs, entertainment and a whole lot of taxes.

Judwark reply
and if they not? what do i do then?

what do you mean? ''what do i do?'', its not the end of the world if England go out.


the only player on the pitch who you may call non english is Hargreaves as he was born in Canada but im not sure on the details as whether he was just born there or the parents were there when he was born etc.

[JUDWAK]

i agree with that dude

iam not and never going to say anyone is racist

and what i mean by
what do i do then?

thats just coz tony put
but be nice if England are still involved.

i'll wait to be bad then?

a judwak first eh? no more bubbles

tiz this bit that got me to start fishing i dint want tony to bite tho
red blooded patriotic Englishmen
iam not going to ever have that said to me
iam more a red blooded patriotic yorkshireman than anyone i know
red blooded patriotic about all things in the uk
just not sport of any kind
i have no time for it
too bizzy learning about this place we call home
iam into history and its wars nowt is going to tell me what red blooded patriotic means

i just feel there is more things to focus my time on than sport
iam a full red blooded patriotic person
i feel there is more to the uk (not england) to be patriotic about
wales scottland england and yorkshire
we all stand for so much more than football
football has its history in the uk
i have read all about it
it was cotton mill v coal mines v steele works
they were the first teams sheffield united (all tho it was twin teamed in jamaca)then sheffield wendsday (but football was invented by 2 english dudes in france) or so i read
one works takeing on another
hence why some towns and citys have 2 teams
after the late 1890 there were a fair few teams about the uk
much better then than now
top players got 17 quid a year on top of there daily jobs
yes these were people not gods
just people from your local town people you knew and saw every day

patriotic? we all were then i would have loved the sport then
but never now
there is history in every part of the uk
i feel football has lost its way
its now a cash cow
and
we are crap at it anyway
