Blokes like this nob off 606 (see below) turn my stomach. I thought this type of misguided sentiment had died away. I'll wish the porridge w0gs well when they do the same for us. Until then I hope they lose at everything and gain full independence.

For England fans Saturday evening could be a delight or an absolute curse - Alastair McSporran (WANTS US TO BELIEVE HE'S ENGLISH)

 

Israel could yet do England one of the biggest favours in international football history and give Steve McClaren?s men a chance of qualifying for Euro 2008 the following Wednesday against Croatia.

 

But if Russia win in Tel Aviv and England crash out? tell you what, let?s just not think about it for a while.

 

news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/foo...

 

Which is why, draped in the Israeli flag, I will be cheering Scotland - a team which still has qualification in their own hands.

I will most likely do this from a pub in Yorkshire as despite the name, I?m English, and I don?t have a problem supporting the Scots.

I?m sure there are many other people from England, with or without celtic connections, who will be cheering on Alex McLeish?s men in the hope the British Isles has one representative in Austria and Switzerland next summer.

But the question is why do some people have a problem with that? (YOU THICK TW@T. BECAUSE THEY ACTIVELY SUPPORT EVERY FECKER AGAINST US)

Supporting another national team may be a cardinal sin in some quarters but with the possibility of England not qualifying at all isn?t it better to have one home-based team at a major championship to keep things interesting?

And is it any worse than all those Manchester United fans who reside in the West Country?

Don?t get me wrong, I?ll be watching the Euros next summer whoever is there but if England don?t make it then I?d like to shout for someone on the TV.

Of course, we have been here before. Many British people will have cheered when Ray Houghton scored for the Republic of Ireland against Italy in the 1994 World Cup.

And I was genuinely disappointed when Paul Bodin?s penalty hit the bar when it looked like Wales might qualify for the World Cup the same year.

I dare say it has something to do with the underdog tag which many of our home nations seem to carry.

Devoid of the millions of pounds which the FA chucks at the England team, it makes a brilliantly-engineered qualifying campaign like Scotland?s seem an even bigger triumph.

But they are not there yet. Two superb victories over France have put them within a James McFadden boot width of reaching the European Championship finals.

Now they just have to take on one of the most professional teams in world football and give the Hampden crowd something to get excited about in the first 20 minutes.

Quite often, the biggest argument against supporting Scotland, or any other home nation, is: they don?t support us so why should I support them?

But I urge you to leave aside your nationalistic tendencies and cheer on a British side as well as a Middle Eastern one on Saturday.

Come the evening it might just be the only pleasure you will get.

I really can't be arsed going over that game, it was such a sickener, but surely you don't believe Italy were the better team? Dodgy decisions? The penalty claim, the free kick that lead to the winner? Don;t even start on dodgy decisions.

 

The facts don't lie, they won, you lost, end of

Just can't help being a dickhead eh bolty?

 

 

I have a long way to go to drop to your level. Go have another deep fried Mars Bar. Thank you so much for biting. Forza Azzurri

highest scoring Englishman in the premiership this year!

 

suredly you should get picked on form and he's out scored Bent, Owen and Crouch overall

 

Aye, but you're forgetting they play for Spurs, Toon & the scouse murderers.

 

Players should be picked on form..........but I'll bet that the second lumps like Keiron Dyer are back from injury, they're back in the squad.

 

I sooooooo wish Scolari would have got the England job - he'd soon drop the f?cking dead wood in that squad.

Really, even though you just admitted trolling, you think you can claim the moral high ground? I am not the one who starts unprovoked nonsense, that tends to be the preserve of the "58" twins.

The Italian goalkeeper had to wear a hat to keep warm. Enough said.

another well thought out and convinving arguement from our resident Nobel prize nominee

Go and iron the pleats in your skirt and stop f?ckin whinging, get the Blackpool brochures out for next summer

Oh do f?ck off, your arrival from TW started it.

Assuming we qualify, let's get rid of McClaren and get Mourinho in for the actual tournament. We might actually win something.

Even if we fail to qualify - he'll keep his job.

 

I can't imagine the FA will sack him straight away, that'll be admitting they made a f ?ck-up appointing someone sooooooooo sh?te in the first place. Best supported country in the world are England - we deserve better (instead of paying SGE so much money after he'd left).

The F.A. are a spineless bunch of yes-men with a track record of piss-poor decisions. Remember when Don Revie left and they appointed Ron Greenwood instead of Brian Clough?! Only in England.

Brian Clough would never have taken the England job, FACT. It would have ruled him out of the Bells Manager of the month award.

Funny, you don't see this pish over there. Just because I make a post doesn't mean it has to be followed by personal comments all the time. Grow up. I didn;t realise whenI started posting here that posting on BB & TW meant I wasn't in "your club". I thought this was a Bolton forum and not a clique, gues I was wrong?

 

Oh, and come on Croatia.

JCL everyone knows it's a cliche on here

TRIBUTES are being paid to Scotland this morning after the entire country laughed itself to death.

 

The alarm was first raised at around 10pm last night as thousands of phone calls and text messages went unanswered.

 

Small groups of volunteers from Berwick-Upon-Tweed and Carlisle ventured north just after midnight only to find houses full of dead people gathered around still blaring television sets.

 

By dawn, as RAF helicopters flew over deserted city streets, it was clear that the whole country had suffered a catastrophic abdominal rupture.

Wayne Hayes, a special constable from Northumberland, said: "We went into one house in Dunbar and found three men sitting on the sofa with huge smiles on their faces, still holding cans of 70 shilling. They seemed to be at peace."

 

He added: "In a house near Edinburgh we found a man face down on the living room floor with his trousers and pants round his knees.

 

"It seems he may have been showing his bare buttocks to the television when he keeled over."

 

Roy Hobbs, a civil engineer from Northampton , said: "I got a call from my friend Ian in Stirling at about 9.50pm.

"He was already laughing when I answered the phone, but after about 25 minutes of the most vigorous and uncontrollable hilarity, everything suddenly went very quiet."

 

Moving tributes are already being placed along the Scotland-England border with many mourners opting to leave a simple bag of chips or a deep fried bunch of flowers.

You can't even take the piss without making it sound dreary.

Now you see, fatshaft, that would've been funny if your shower of shite were any better.

But you're not, so it's not.

Hahaha, brilliant Fathead. You must have been up all night writing that you sad and bitter little man. One question. I assume you live in England? If so and you hate it so much (and love Scotland), why don't you f?ck off back up there? To his credit, Jazza did. Maybe when you sad sacks get full independence you'll sling yer hook? Won't be a day too soon.

 

One thing you seem to have overlooked is how many English fans were happy not to qualify if it meant getting rid of McClown. No ginger minge tosser with Mc at the start of his name should ever manage England.

 

The one thing I do know - besides what we have already won, we will win more before you useless coonts get anywhere near

Independence? They're a third world country as it is......

So dreary AND unoriginal as well as a cross-dresser. Life hasn't been kind to you has it Fathead?

It's Wales v Scotland on here today!
