19QOS19 Posted July 13, 2018 Share Posted July 13, 2018 England is part of Britain and all 3 nations represent Britain regardless of having a separate identity in some sports (including football). If this was a PTTGOYN I'd understand your point. Surely you cannot be upset that Britain gets praise for the success of a British team? It's like those people who get upset when a Scot succeeds in sport and becomes British but in reverse. Ok, I'll make it simple - If England do well does it move Scotland, Wales and NI up the rankings? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brother Blades Posted July 13, 2018 Share Posted July 13, 2018 The Yes bar in Glasgow is possibly the worst place on the planet. I’m a massive Indy supporter but the fucking arsehiles of staff in here have me almost convinced me to vote No next time around. Bunch of c***s. I’ve been a little bit sick in my mouth a few times during the 11 minutes it’s taken me to drink my drink. Will not be back. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But, that's got nothing to do with England winning being a good day for British sport. Prestige, image, positive impression etc are surely of some value regardless of moving up the FIFA rankings or not If Andy Murray wins you wouldn't say it was a good day for Scottish sport because it doesn't move Scotland up the FIFA rankings? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
