Fair enough Flash, we all get swept away when we are passionate about things.....especially football. -

I think it''s reasonably pathetic for a Leeds fan to be hanging around on a Norwich City messageboard People think its pathetic that English are supporting other nations at the world cup, but hey ho........ Leeds fan Jonny has as much right as anyone to debate......I noticed nobody complained about City fans flooding Leeds forums. -

Well said In Dubious battle.....instead of petty point scoring, maybe actual having a reasonable debate isnt too much to ask........ -

And frankly your comments on here remind me what I dislike about the flag waving hoards that infect beautiful cities throughout europe making me truly ashamed. And frankly your comments on here remind me that those that despise our national team and flag are morons like you who belive everything they read in the press about all England fans being racist skinhead thugs..........so Ditto pal........ -

The thing about ''nationality'' is that it is an organic construct, it involves self-determination, people choose to belong to a nation. Whereas the choice of which state to belong too is not optional. For instance your passport says ''British'' Britain is not a nation it is a State which are different things entirely. fair point, although when asked ethnic origin, at doctors etc and they say white british? I always say white english........im not scottish, welsh or irish and all 3 of them hate the english. -

The reason I dont post much on here, is pillocks making little one liners, sitting back and patting themselves on the back, where in real life there is long tumbleweed silence. Perhaps I should set up a help group for self-loathing Englishmen like myself. At least then I won''t feel alone when I put on my Spain shirt, open a bottle of ouzo and tuck into my spaghetti bolognese whilst I cheer on Denmark. Tee hee hee, Im with Millo on this, if you are going to make an attempt at sarcasim, please remember to try and make it funny at least.....what is it they say....sarcasim is the lowest form of wit......well at least Flashearts shown half of it..... Tit!!! -

Seriously, I''m ashamed. Deeply ashamed. I think I''ll go cross out the nationality on my birth certificate since I''m clearly not English enough. I''ll get back to you once I feel worthy of your Englishness. Idiot!!! -

spent much of my teenage years living in France and Spain perhaps for me that is why I never developed a deep attachment to England See now, thats fair enough, if I had lived in another country for a long period of my life......who knows??? -

CT, be honest, you made the original post, saw what a cock everyone thought you were, and are now back peddling trying to make out you were making another point entirely....its there for all to see....rather than lying and talking more crap...people might let you off, if you just owned up and admitted you were a plank for posting that stupid comment??? -

As a side point I would be interested to hear your opinion of who played better football in league 1 than us last season? Southampton? Millwall? Swindon? At times we looked great, but that slowly turned into win at any cost.....dont get me wrong, i want to win, and dont care if we do it stylishly {like Colchester away} or boring {Hartlepool - time wasting 2-1 up at home to hartlepool?, Exeter, etc}.......Im not slagging Lambert, he had a job to do, promotion, he achieved that, so im not fussed that sometimes the football wasnt pretty. To be honest In Dubious battle or Say Hello To The Angels {why the name change?}.....I dont understand how you can have a feeling of being proud and norfolk, not proud and english...........perhaps something happened that changed this???....I dont know you may have personal reasons that are none of my business. All I will say, as another poster pointed out, is that if England are in the world cup final....I have no doubt ALL the people supporting other nations, will suddenly turn to the most patriotic person in england, with over the top st georges bunting flags, car flags, england shirts, wigs and face paint.......funny what a bit of success can do to people....................fair play In Dubious, if we do get to the final and say its England I would be interested to see how many from this thread saying they wont support England....suddenly pop up a thread called say "England in the final!!!} and start gettingall patriotic..... I also think, like another poster that age is a big factor.........obviously im older than many on here, maybe the oldest of all, but say 20-50 years ago, to not support England was unheard of......yes we won the world cup in 66, but before that people were proud to be english.....I think society, for whatever reason has changed over the years.........ive followed England proudly, our best performence abroad 1990, went to evry game, to places like Albania....ive loved it and wouldnt change a minute of it.............thats one thing I will say......maybe you have to have gone to an England away game to feel the buzz....England at home, yes I want them to win, but the atmosphere is hit and miss....England away, you have die hard England followers, who scrape together money by any means to support their country........England away games have given me a bigger buzz than any, and I do mean any {maybe not the milk cup semi v scum} Norwich game.......Turin, italy 90, semi against West Germany, yes we lost on penaltys, but that feeling of pride that not has never been matched at a Norwich game...........Just being honest....................give it a go, its not the racist skin head thugs at England away games anymore, thats the past, and despite the press waiting in the wings to film any smashed pint glass....it really isnt anything like the press make out.....the press and news teams, want to sell papers and people to watch their programmes......pictures of England fans sitting,drinking, enjoying the atmosphere, doesnt sell papers or entice people to watch programmes.... trust me, do what you can to take in an England away game, then come back and tell me how you felt....everyone I know has been scepticle of going to England away games.....but once they go they are hooked........ -

I have never supported England I wish to see Spain win the world cup as I believe they play the best football and would be deserving winners Ok fair comment, you want the team who plays the best football to win...............so I take it you dont support Norwich then???.....We didnt play the best football in League One let alone the whole english league system as a whole.............supporting man Utd or Arsenal next season??? -

whilst I won''t really be supporting England I won''t be supporting anyone else either. Why? You are I assume a football fan or you wouldnt be on the pink un {with the exception of camuldung}..........and I would have thought you support norwich, by you using this forum......so why support Norwcih and not England??? I really dont get this. -

Your point about age may well be a good one even though it doesn''t make a lot of sense. The world has changed greatly since I was a kid and I''m guessing I''m a fair bit younger than you (and a lot younger than Arthur ). What does being English mean to young fans today? Age is the question that needs to be looked at on this debate. So to those on this debate, who will be supporting anyone but England.........how old are you??? The answers might lay in that question........ -

CT - If you read my post again you will realise that what I was actually saying was that size DOES NOT matter and that they''ve done very well to get to the premierleague with those small attendence figures and that maybe it goes to show that attendence is not as important to whether a side is successful as it once was CT''s Original Post - We got 25k week in week out in the third tier - which is fantastic. Blackpool hope to get 20,000 in the premierleauge! WOW! My garden shed springs to mind... I would NOT swap positions with Blackpool. Would you? CT - You are young, but that excuse only works for so long......your original post is 100% different from the crap you claimed it meant. Get a grip!!!!!!!!!! -

I would NOT swap positions with Blackpool. Would you? Honestly???.....Bigger teams, bigger revenue, premiership payments.........and theres also the chance of staying up and not coming straight back down as most have assumed...........didnt people say that about Wigan, Fulham, Birmingham to name a few??? Sop what if we get 25,000 {actually it will be 27,000}, i would take 5,000 less supporters and a premiership place anytime. This thread is possible the thickest ive encountered......and taking into account some of the crap ive put on here that says a lot!!!!!!!!!!!!
