Southern Ireland.

Southern Ireland

This 'Southern Ireland' patter confuses me. I don't know why folk have issues here. I always like Scotland, The Failed Statelet and Ireland to do well.

I only have 2 teams in my top five: Wales and England.

Because that's the name of Southern Ireland, doh.

I concur with T_K - I always like to see the Free State doing well, as long as it does not impact adversely on ourselves or the Failed Statelet.

I think I have only 1 team in my top 5 - England. Can't say there are any other international sides that I dislike.

1. Greece- have over-achieved thanks to a decade of boring football. Possibly Craig Levein's template for his Scotland side.

2. Uruguay- every time I watch them they play dirty from the first whistle to the last. If I was playing against them I wouldn't leave my wallet in the changing room.

3. Ghana- playing at the World Cup should be a proud moment for any player. Holding out for an advance payment of the prize money is scandalous. They also attributed 100% of their WC 2010 exit to Luis Suarez, failing to accept that as well as his handball they're shit at penalties.

4. USA- football isn't even one of their top 4 sports, in fact they don't even call it its correct name, and they're arguably the biggest contributor to its death by commercialisation. They see football grounds as 80,000-seater hot dog shops, and since the 1994 WC opened up a mass audience of Americans, the tournament philosophy has been "sponsors first, sport second".

5. Portugal- see Uruguay.

1) England

2) Brazil (current squad) just filled with so many dis-likable players (Luiz, Alves, Neymar, Marcelo) and get by on their past reputation.

3) Netherlands - They claim to be a special footballing side but they are filled with cynical dirty players and have a real nasty streak.

4) Greece - Ruined Euro 2004 for me.

5) Switzerland - Always qualify well and then bottle it as soon they play someone good so England without the arsehole players.

5. Russia - dross. Capello is living the dream with his salary there, but absolute horseshite viewing. They were 1-12 on to beat Moldova yesterday. Failures.

4. Northern Ireland - sometimes think I wouldn't mind seeing them do well - links to the SPL clubs for many of the players, know someone who knows Michael O'Neill (woooooo) and seems a top man, but if I ever settle down to a game, then the camera cuts to their fans with their flegs, one song(Green and White Ermy). Met a bunch of them in Sweden a few years ago when Laugherty scored that goal. Many, not just 3 or 4, but a large number came across as horrible people.

3. Brazil - arrogant shite house fans who also the media try to make us love.

2. Canada - have family there and I want to see them qualify, but have ended up disliking them due to how shit they are, and ponder a cliche, why can't a country of immigrants from many soccer mad countries (Italy, ex-Yu, South America, Carribbean plus Brits) can't field a team that can side step Martinque, Guadeloupe or Cuba, and never mind qualify, just get to the final round robin stage. They needed a draw last time around to go in to the final qualifying, but ended up losing 8-0 in that game.

1. England - although as I age it's turning into in difference mostly yet I still cheered like the pathetic north Brit I am when Uruguay papped them oot of the WC.
