The pressure's building on the Gerries to win something if you ask me. The past few tournaments they've used the 'young team' card. It won't work this time
Agree. Love watching the Bosch play but I still think there is something lacking there.
It's not so much i hate Brazil ER but more the media fawning over them as though they have a divine right to win it. It gets impossible to watch because the commentators almost have an orgasm every time they have a shot. I'm getting to feel exactly the same way about Barcelona and spain.
They won't need to play the young team card - they can just use the "FIFA fix it so that a European team cannot win in Latin America" excuse and most of the media will agree. If England qualify they'll use the same line when we get knocked out in the group stages by Bosnia Herzegovena - and apart from Adrian Chiles, Ian Wright, Clive Tyldsley et al nobody will agree.
The non-English always seem to claim that England fans think we have a chance, but no one I know thinks we're any good 
Where does this misconception come from?

So for this one thing, most Scots/Irish take the media as gospel?
Yes actually Jip.
I have nothing against England as I was born there.
The media do my tits in though.

No. But when you're ex ex manager and former golden generation player come out and say stupid **** like "We can win the world cup" the media get worked up in a frenzy.
Thus resulting in the rest of the UK having to listen to all the pish that gets spouted for weeks on end about how England have the players to win a major tournament.
This is my stop. If you want to argue over it so more, you best find someone who gives a flying ****.
"Huv ye seen what it says in the paper an that Wullie? The English hink they're gonnae win the World Cup. It says so in the paper, so it does!"
When that plane went down a couple of years ago with all those polish vips on it, the poles around the corner from me hung a polish flag at half past. Like any ****er in our neighbourhood would know what it was 
Anyway, the first game I watched was that 1973 stinker. I expect us to beat the poles tomorrow, no sweat.

To be honest MD it pisses a lot of us off too and we support the bloody team so it must drive you lot mental. I know quite a few Scots and Irish who don't mind England doing well in any sport but they all say the same about the press.
