...Because I'm f*cked if i want to be seen supporting a National team populated with the cheats and shiseters I have to watch my club combat against week in week out in the Prem.
No doubt the press will be rallying round the population's non-football watching sheep as usual, to "Get behind Woy's heroes in Brazil!". Well f*ck that! I am sick of the likes of Rose, Young, Sterling et al diving, moaning and conning their way to stardom at the expense of honesty and passion. The Stars and Stripes will be going up in the front room and I might invest in a Bosnia flag too - because they are the only teams that have any "interest" in the World Cup for me at the minute.

It amuses me that the media and especially the ex-pros totally fail to acknowledge that a fair chunk of the most dispicable, nasty, cheating no-marks in this league are in fact ......English.

Yes you will never catch a Bosnian, Serbian a Croat or anyone from that region diving or cheating! What a great choice!  |

great to see the utterly overrated Lennon replaced by the utterly overrated Townsend. Sums up everything I hate about modern football.

Hoping Bosnia don't score a single goal and have the worst goals against in the entire tourny. Worst of luck to Benedict Arnold in any international fixture.
Go USA, Mexico, Costa Rica and Honduras.

'footballs losing its charm' was the phrase I heard somewhere in the week. I have been saying it for about 2 years now, its getting worse and worse and worse and today epitomised it all.
I wont be cheering on England and to be honest I don't think I have for a while.

I will be supporting my country as usual, just as I support my team. I dont pick and choose who plays for England as I dont choose who plays for Stoke.
If the likes of Lee Hughes, Marlon King or Joey Barton played for Stoke I would not start supporting another team. I may not like it but I'm affraid we cant pick the team or charecters who play for it.
Dont think we will win but who knows, be good to see Gerrard lift the title and world cup this year. England have my backing even if I do not rate the players.

England. End of. I hate fans who dont support their local teams and same goes for England its where im from through thick and thin unlike the gloryhunting twats. How can anyone want any other team do well. If England come good in next few years i can bet the England flags will be out in the cars and all around. England and stoke forever. End of

I don't expect everyone to follow their local teams so I choose not to support the country I'm from. In fact I hate England with a passion.
Can't stand the FA, really dislike Hodgson and the majority of the players down the years have been awful individuals. The fact you have to play for a select group of teams to stand a chance to be 'rewarded' with a cap just enhances my dislike.
Hope they crash and burn in the group stages.

Dislike England with a passion. I bet you didnt in 96 when the nation was all behind England. I personally can't believe you dont want your nation to win. I'm proud to be English

In 96 I was 13 so didn't know any better. Plus the players backs then were likeable, decent humans. Plus Venables was much more likeable than any manager since. It's since 2006 my attitude swung.
I'm proud to be English but that doesn't extend to the England football team. Who knows maybe one day I'll warm to them again but not until Hodgson goes, the current set of divers/cheats/general lowlifes have been replaced and the FA has had an overhaul which means players get picked on merit. Until then I couldn't care less.
But it's just me, I wouldn't criticise anyone for continuing to support England.

I'm proud to be English Unfortunately the pride and passion of the '96 England squad has been replaced by a bunch of cheating overpaid nobodies. Don't give a fuck about the national team now. Haven't watched a full England match for alllooooonggg time!!! |

No, I watched Stoke far more when we were shit. I had a season ticket from the 98/99 season for about 9 seasons. Now I work and live abroad so have much less chance to get to The Brit.
I've seen us lost 2-0 down to Rochdale within 4 minutes on a cold February night in the AWS. I was there at the following games after the 0-7 and 0-8 defeats. I saw all of the 4-goal drubbings under Little.
All the Premier League highs I've missed so I'm the opposite of a fair-weather supporter.

Being away from England makes me realise how much I really don't give a toss about them. I am proud to be English but I have no feeling toward our team at all. I am actually looking forward to seeing Stoke's players in the WC whoever they play for. I am a club team man over the national team any day. It gets my goat when the "english" hate anyone who doesn't support the national team, that's EDL stuff
Edited for grammatical errors, God forbid I sound like the EDL worshippers

for me, not supporting doesn't mean I will give anyone else a shout, I will watch it, but certainly wont be cheering them on.
On the other hand, if they show some integrity and respect for the game, i will hope that they do well
