Republic of Ireland v Croatia

I wonder if Ireland would cheer if England score?!

Does it matter?

The English have always supported the underdog and by and large see the Irish,Scottish & Welsh as our brothers/cousins/friends. We certainly don't see them as any sort of sporting, social, cultural, or political rivals. :dunno:

If some of them want to go out their way to support whoever England is playing then my response would simply be whatever turns them on, it's a pretty small time attitude and just reveals a slight obsession with all things English on their part. I don't think many English people would lose much sleep on it to be honest. Be better and rise above it.

As a side note...i wonder what the odds are of Sean St Ledger being the only Englishman to score at this tournament? :P

I disagree regarding the Scots not being sporting rivals.

This thread would be very different if it was Scotland vs Croatia.
