Does anyone actually watch England any more? 

 

I certainly hope so - there's got to be something to distract from the money-laden corrupt corporate behemoth that is high-level football in England now.

I really don't get the 'I don't care about England' bandwagon it doesn't make you look cool,the media like to make out we are much worse than we are and often say we only have one good player,as for Scotland,they've got a few decent youngsters - Gary Mackay Steven has tekkerz.

Still watch major tournaments and the odd qualfier but not watched a friendly for years and that won't change on Wednesday.

Scotland have got a few good players, look at how many play in our top flight.

 

I don't really watch friendlies although I will watch us against Scotland. I'd actually like to go and watch them again but the prices are to expensive for friendlies.

It is surprising. A lot of comments I hear and read base around "Well they aren't going to win anything", which begs the question as to why they support their clubs too, as 85 clubs probably won't anything every season.

 

We are not shit, we are not great. We are in that middle ground which appears to have been lost when players, clubs, countries, support levels are judged.

Is it on ITV?

 

 

yes

 

This channel just can't resist scum can it from Jeremy Kyle in the morning to 20,000 travelling Jocks at night.

The media make us out to be worse than we are???  Everytime theres a major tournament they think we will win it.

 

To be fair they haven't donw that for a good few years now unless you read something like the Sun or the Mirror.

I hope the tv coverage doesn't patronize them, for as i'm concerned itv covers england's game and concentrate's on england only. Never mind that typical bollox they give like when England are hammering them 4-0 "but you've got to admire the jocks spirit", and if england are losing its never "admire the english spirit". If England win its only against the scots, if we lose it's a disaster and we never hear the end of it the same for drawing.

 

It's not just when we're playing them, you don't hear enough praise for England team!

You just know Scotland will lose and somehow it will be brave. That's the way it is. Always has been.

 

They have always been a bit stupid but brave as ****, they keep charging over the hills when the red coats were gunning them down 20 by 20.

Of course, Scottish military strategy is generally a cross between "get the bastards" and this:

The problem with the England international scene is that there seems to be very little passion from the players involved. Representing your country should be the highest honor but they certainly don't seem to act or play like it is. I don't know if its the over inflated ego's or the over inflated wage packets but there just doesn't seem to be much to be proud about!

£60 for two adults and two children isn't too shoddy but £45 is a nonsense for a midweek friendly. 

Posted

If tickets were£20 for adults,it'd be close to a sell out and the atmosphere would be so much better

From £45 to watch Scotland?

 

Jesus.
