I want the jocks to qualify for 3 reasons.

1, Laugh at them getting thrashed, mugged and raped.

2, So we can kick the mars bars out of them should we meet up in Sarf Afrika.

3, Wind the 3 Jocks up in my local so bad that we end up wrestling in the pub car park.

One of my all time favourite World Cup squad records (vinyl) was the Allie McCleod one.

We're on the march with Allie's Army

We're going to the Argentine

And we'll really shake 'em up

When we win the World Cup

.....

 

 

I canee remember what comes next....oh , yeah...LOLOLOLOL

The next line is in fact,

'Cause Scotland are the greatest football team'.....similar in a way as Saints fans singing about Southampton being the 'worlds greatest team', i.e completley unrealistic......

 

Also it is 'cannae', not canee...hth

 

 

Enjoy SA 2010........well until the semi finals probably...cue backlash for paying Capello a gazillion pounds to be just as good as the usual choice of managers.

The part that notes that Saints curently are in League 1 whereas the 'best' football teams find themselves in the Premiership, La Liga, The Bundesliga, The Scudetto, etc etc...I have not seen Saints having much coverage recently in Champions League highlights, they may be my team, but they also are crap.....

I thought it was a given on here that one had to agree that Southampton are the greatest football team !?!? Sorry my mistake. Anyway, at least we haven't hada hit record to that effect eh.

I liked the p1sstake version that someone came up with for Italia '90 when Andy Roxburgh was their manager...

 

We're on the march with Andy's army

We're going to do our usual tricks

And we'll shake them up in Rome

When we catch the first plane home

Like we did in eighty-two and eighty-six.

 

Genius!

Not bothered if the Scotch go thrugh or not. Would like to play them in a tournament again though. Would laugh a lot more if the frenchies fail to qualify.

If they qualify then they deserve to be there as much as anyone else. The Scottish and the Irish seem to be able to take large numbers of fans to tournaments and celebrate it. Shame we can't learn from them.

But you're forgetting the part where Brazil is basically a Southampton B team...

I've not got anything against Scotland, I think it would be more interesting if they and Northern Ireland qualify.

 

Would be ****ing great if those Argentina ****s don't get through though.

I do - but I don't think they will.

 

Even if they do though - they could get seriously embarrassed at the finals, so perhaps non qualification is a better option for them really.

I don't think we'll qualify tbh, we've got no chance against Holland. Unless of course, we end up playing the Netherlands U17s. In which case we might draw.

 

Unfortunately the Macedonia result at the weekend has given the nation hope in Burley, which is the wrong thing. We need him out the door as quickly as possible to be with any chance of qualifying for the Euros.

 

4-1 to Netherlands imo.

and qualify for the World Cup finals...?

 

is there anyone English daft enough to want them through..?

 

a big fat NO from me

 

Nothing to do with your dislike for George Burley?

 

I want all British teams to go through just like I support all British sports people. One thing is for sure if Scotand do qualify then they won't be winning the world cup just like England won't.

I'd like as many home nations as poss to qualify, then Sepp Blabber and Michelle Plutoni and their mates can campaign for us to play under one united flag, The United Kingdom Fotball Association. Would have been real world beaters at times imho, and funny as to hear them squinnying when no Taffs, Oirish or Scotch get picked every now and then.

 

The support would be brilliant too, no trouble whatsoever.

 

Anyway, why doesn't someone start a new thread "Who would you pick for your squad if you were manager of The UK football team? I can't be ar......

I used to be happy to support all British National teams, Football, atheletes, Tennis, etc, however my support of all things British was graduallly eroded away over many years by the hateful and constant abuse of the English in all sports by our neighbouring British nations.

 

You don't have to look much further than the TV interviews of "Joe Public" opinions on the street, comments left on newspaper arcticles about any English successes, web forums, pubs, and even work places to see the dislike from them of the English.

 

In recent years, I have not heard many from a British nation that isn't from England wish us any goodwill in any sport, in fact, only the opposite... that they don't like us and hope we lose and even support other foreign teams than one of their own British neighbours unlike the support they always receive from England.

 

From what I understand the majority of supporters of our other British nations would prefer that we didn't support them too so now I don't. I don't hate them, I don't wish them to lose. I just don't have an opinion of them at all. For me these days, as long as it is England that are doing well I'm happy and as for the other British Nations I just don't care any longer what they do or how they get on.

Who is your 'second' team once England get knocked out ofa tournament?

 

Mine is Poland (on my Grandad's side).

 

In the last several years I have continued to watch the team that has knocked England out with the thought if it wasn't them it may have been us, and what could have been. And once they've gone... become impartial.

 

And if a fellow Nation knocked us out... well, these days I'd just be impartial.

At Euro '88 in Germany me and a friend followed England at each of the three consecutive, embarassing defeats. Before during and after each game there was much trouble. The German fans were everywhere (no **** Sherlock), and the Dutch seemed to pop up unexpectedly for the odd disagreement when you least expected it. I think it was at Dusseldorf station actually, where me and my mate were outside the station taking in the atmosphere and admiring the architecture, when all of a sudden police arrived at speed and surrounded the England fans. From one end of the strasse came hundreds of Dutch hoolies, and from the other end came the Germans. If it hadn'y been for my half German mate shouting in German for a shopkeeper to let us take refuge in his shop, I think we would have 'got it' that day.

 

Anyway, the first game was against the Oirish, and on returning to our hotel to get ready for a night in he bierkellers after they had beaten us, we discovered that it was full of Shamrock toting fans celebrating. They wouldn't let us out, insisting that we had a few beers on them. Result. As the evening wore on, I got friendly with one of the young ladies in the group and in the drunken confusion she forgot which room she was supposed to sleeping in (silly girl). '-)

 

I'll spare you the details, but suffice to say, I felt obliged to cheer them on into the next match, as a way of thanking her. So for purely personal reasons Oirland is my 3rd team once England is knocked out.
