Supporting Scotland.

by St Pauli » 23 Jun 2024 22:27

Seems to be a lot of anti Scotland feeling around here.

That’s kind of understandable. The scotch are quite anti English. But that’s mainly because the English are largely c/nts, especially when it comes to football. I mean there is a certain irony in English fans not liking Scotland because of a perceived small minded and aggressive seam of Scottish nationalism that runs through Scottish football fan culture re England.

But then you remember that this is from the nation that boos other nation’s national anthem, always seems to tie their football support to perceived military prowess (LOL) and whose fans are universally reviled by other nations wherever they go.

The anti Scottish nonsense on this forum is baffling. I see them as neighbours, I want them to do well.

Don’t get me started on anthems

1. Booing another country’s anthem is just plain wrong and, if it were me, would drive me to play better to be able to, metaphorically, stick two fingers up at the xenophobic idiots
2. If you’re the designated singer of a national anthem, sing it properly. This is about the nation’s pride, not you, you selfish bitch (yes, I’m talking about the cricket and the American anthem destroyed by soneone who thought it was all about them)

Thanks

I tend to agree.

Although it's always pretty amusing when they fail again.

This. Was in Leipzig for the last few days surrounded by Dutch and French fans with a smattering of Scottish and other randoms. The atmosphere was fantastic. Friendly, lively and not a boorish English twat unable to hold his drink* in sight.

The unfortunate fact is that people all over the world would rather see Scottish or just about any other fans than the English. I would suggest that England focused a bit more inwardly on the large percentage of cnuts that follow them than spend time hating their neighbours.

Well said leon.
I just don't get this antipathy towards smaller nations-it is easy to see it the other way round from fellow Brits in Northern Ireland, Scotland and Wales because of the behaviour of our fans and rightly see us as arrogant and over confident to the point of nauseating.

With us it is always what we are going to do when, because of so many failures and not reaching high expectations, we perhaps ought to rejoice more in what we have done.
Whilst Germany, Italy, France and Spain just get on with it and win tournaments we overhype our players and, apart from 1966 on home soil, we come away with what might have been.

Good luck to the Scots with key positions held by players from teams like Norwich and Southampton whereas ours come only from Premier League clubs-the disappointment for them was probably in not giving it a good go v Hungary but at the same time our 4 shots or so in games v Denmark and Serbia isn't much to write home or crow about.

sadly I think there is a small but noisy minority of English who for some reason see their nation as having always been wronged, and see every other nation as their enemy. This plays out not only on football terraces, but also elsewhere in life.

Have agree with the OP.

I like Scotland, but accept that a lot of them will be praying for us to fail tomorrow evening.

It’s just the Big Brother syndrome. Austria, NL and Switzerland are Anyone But Germany, and the Belgians ( especially the French- speaking ones) are desperate for France to fail.

To be honest, I'm mostly just bemused at how much of a chance they thought they had when they were obviously the worst team in their group.

It's all well and good being difficult to play against, but you've got to actually try to win games.

It's just a big meh to me. Used to be fairly supportive, but so many of them really hate us. Although there is a lot to hate in plenty of little Englanders. I don't really like England either.
