No mate. People are intelligent enough to want the England football team to win because (a) They love football and (b) it’s their country and to see all the jingoistic hoo ha and misplaced patriotism for what it is. It is maddening to see people who usually despise football and it’s fans jumping on the bandwagon but they will be gone in a day or so.
And Football won’t.
Plenty of “Football is lovely again, pity about the beastly fans” floating about in the Tory press. Well, they despise us and I despise them, but it doesn’t stop me getting behind the team and they’ll have soon found something else to froth and lie about and all the hangers on will have gone back to tennis and sudoku. C’mon England.
