The thing I always remember was a panini sticker saying Tony Galvin was the only Russian speaking player in the league!
It's turned full circle and now English (or even British) are the minority. Multi national/ cultural is a great thing, sadly all clubs in Europe no longer represent where they are from (the club) but owners
"Elite" football has become like F1... just another plaything for the super rich. One of the reasons I struggle to engage with it now.

Would be quite pleased for Rangers and Scottish football in general if they managed it - would prefer it if the others all failed, purely to avoid the dreaded "bantz". :poop::hungover::hungover:

Voted Rangers simply because it would be good for them and Scottish football in general. As for the others fuck 'em.

You'd be hard pushed to find any Rangers (or Scottish for that matter) supporter who didn't want any English team to get properly stuffed by any other nation. Same with the Welsh. Fuck them!

They want us to get stuffed because they envy us. We want them to do well because we pity them. It's better to be hated than to be pitied.

I remember watching the 99 CL final wanting United to win and running around the house when they scored their goals.

Then again, I was 8 and since then I don't think I've ever wanted an English team to win a European final.

Nah, don’t want any of them winning anything, least of all West Ham as we will never hear the end of it off their fans

I know one lunatic Rangers fan, and any time England play any body at anything, he wants us to get battered. Same with a Welsh bloke I know. I said to them a while back 'If ISIS had a football team you'd support them against us wouldn't you'. They both agreed that they would. ****s.

I wonder why?
Watch Braveheart.
Its why most of the world hate us. Same with Italy and the Germans.
At some point we've all invaded peoples homes and oppresed them.
That kind of thing really annoys people lol.

I was in a bar with a drop screen watching Liverpool / AC Milan CL final. Was rammed. At ht this little boy, about 6 was crying as 3.0 down and I said to him ' Dont cry. It's not over yet. They scored 3 in 45mins, so can Liverpool.' What followed was brilliant and I often wonder if that little boy remembers that night. Couldn't help but want them to win.
Man U CL Final was amazing as well, even though I hate them.
England 5 Germany 1,
and ours and Liverpools CL semi finals, probably the most memorable matches for me.
These days I think fk them and want them all to lose.
Side note, all English CL Finals are fkin dogshit and a total let down. Real anti climax.

Most of the Welsh support English Clubs, mostly Man Utd and Liverpool but I even know a Villa Fan. So they would obviously support their respective clubs in Europe. The England national team on the other hand…

What kind of cuck are you if you’re cheering on someone like Man City to, God forbid, win the CL and then leave yourself open to being bantered via the “champions of Europe you’ll never sing that” chant?

it’s blasphemy and there’s no place for it. Football fan culture is too toxic.

"None"

Why would I want to watch/cheer any other club?

The one I do support gives me enough heartache/pain/frustration.


I'm fucking ugly but I ain't half as stupid as some of you believe.

I don't want Liverpool to get a quadrupole~ if they beat Madrid now and fail in one of the others Im OK with that.
WHAM, CITY and LEICESTER going out ~ happy about that.
