This was ably demonstrated by my roar when he quick-stepped his way to a penalty miss. I'm 68 etc, etc 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scotland at no point in the tournament were anywhere near winning or stopping England from winning the thing. You were irrelevant. You're laughing to yourselves about being one of the worst teams in the tournament whilst your "rivals" nearly won the thing. Sounds hilarious. Or "beaten in the final on penalties", as we prefer to say. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

well fan for life Posted July 13, 2021 Share Posted July 13, 2021 Thinking back on it the Italian players behaved like complete arseholes all night. Cynical fouls, harassing the officials and generally riling up the England support. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Monkey Tennis Posted July 13, 2021 Share Posted July 13, 2021 On 12/07/2021 at 13:01, Detournement said: The "Coming Home" hype around England looks like a noose around their neck now. It's ramped up the pressure on the players, driven the fans insane like the "The Ten" did up here and seems to really piss off Euro fans and teams to the extent that a Scottish/Irish attitude to them getting beat seems quite widespread. Bonnuci and Schmeichel were both clearly pissed off by it and the idea that England winning is somehow more important and meaningful than anyone else is only going to motivate all of your opponents making winning more difficult. Totally agree with this. It started off as a good football song marking the idea of the game returning to the place it was first codified, in the form of that place hosting a tournament. The same song lamented England's (even then) long run without success on the pitch. However, with England doing well in the last two tournaments and with a generation born since it first came out now in adulthood, it's become warped to the point about football coming home, somehow coming to represent England winning a trophy. As such, it has all sorts of connotations to do with success being somehow correct and fair - it now reeks of an entitlement it didn't initially carry. In the last World Cup and in this tournament, we've seen exactly the sentiment you describe. I think Brexit and Boris Johnson are attached to it, but there's no doubt that it's not just people in these islands that now see England defeats as desirable. The corruption of 'Three Lions' is definitely part of that. 15 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
