A long shot...I'm gonna be in Campbeltown..mull of kintyre for Sundays final..anyone close by wanna join for a pint and the game..like I said..long shot..more chance of allams selling up
 
I hate goal music and brass bands from Sheffield but don't mind some celebratory tunes after a Wembley victory. But they often get the mix wrong, for example I hate Hi Ho F***ing Silver Lining or anything by Status Quo but do love some Heroes by Bowie post glorious victory.
3 Lions and now Sweet Caroline don't need any orchestration, just let the crowd express themselves.. we're singing for England... Arrivederci it's one one one... Come on!

Will it be a bit unfriendly in the boozer if England win? Will they even have It on?

Dont get why people are so snobbish about stuff like Sweet Caroline, weve had months of empty soulless stadiums, now we have 50/60k joyous fans belting out something , i personally dont care what they sing, they could sing Cotton Eyed Joe for all i care , it just sounds great to hear it and see the players embracing it.
honestly think some people prefer it when things are going ****.

Totally. Imagine being the sort of depressed negative **** who would prefer to boo England players than sing an exuberant song. People like that just need to stay away, it’s not 1974 anymore, the world has moved on.

Who are you talking about?
 
Ever since the likes of Vila and Ardilles came and the other foreign players arrived when sky pumped money in we've been seeing a huge influence of diving, shrieks of agony only to get up when the free kick is awarded.. our lads have just seen that and followed suit. Foden last season stayed on his feet numerous times in the box, despite getting the sh1t kicked out of him and got fk all for his honesty .. so if the refs don't blow unless ya go down under a challenge .. then fk it .. go down like a sack of spuds. The Italians, Spanish, French etc have been employing this tactic for years. If they want it stamping out then get some refs in who will do something about it. If the 'challenge' on Sterling hadnt have been given I bet ya thousands would have been shouting it was fixed .. bit like when we dont get pens we think we should have.

Same with Lukaku in this tournament, tried to stay on his feet and got nothing, had he gone down, he'd have got a penalty.

See my post above. People talk about racism, what I experience in Scotland probably surpasses a lot of what others have experienced.

I go to Scotland quite a bit and I'm absolutely positive that the anti-English sentiment has been ratcheted up manyfold since the Independence referendum - away from 'touristy' areas you need to be even more switched on than you ever were.
