    Now England are out of the World Cup, are any of you England fans going to cheer on another nation?
    If it was me and Wales was out I would be rooting for one of the other home nations to win it.

    Why would I hate you? It's your choice. Me as I said would support British first, a load of my mates support Wales and whoever is playing England. I've had big arguements with some over it.

    I didn't mean hate, that was an expression mate, it's just me, I can't stand Andy Murray but George Best is my hero for life, ain't life strange.

    I saw Wales play The Aussies last year and deserved to beat them only to lose yet again in the last minutes. So let's hope the boys do it tomorrow to finish top of the group.

    Hope yours was cheaper tickets than when I saw us play the Aussies, I paid £220 for two back in 99 at quarter final stage.
    Also went to New Zealand v S Africa in the third place play of that tournement. So I had the privilege of seeing the great Jonah Lumo, in full flight.

    Would be happy for Ireland to win it... took a lot of stick off the Welsh so I await their demise.

    Sorry ROD.

    Mam was Welsh so no prizes who I'll be wanting to win.

    Anyone but the Irish.
    On a cycling tour 10 years ago every pub in the Wicklow mountains and south of Dublin gave us less a than friendly welcome.
    2 pubs were openly hostile, particularly Johnnie Foxes.

    That's interesting RP - I've been to Ireland a number of times, staying in Dublin and Leitrim and found the locals really friendly - got invited into a random neighbours house on one visit near Carrick on Shannon - they shoved a guitar in my hand and we sang and drank into the early hours.

    Why sorry mate, it was only a simple question.

    What makes these tournements more entertaining is that it's full of of home nations, hopefully the Euros next summer can enjoy the home nations taking stage.

    **** me that is how you defend, fantastic defence with 13 men by the Aussies. Impressed with them last week and even more so this week. Got a feeling I wrote them off this tournament too soon.

    I don't like Dublin, bus drivers especially was very abusive when he tried to pull out when I couldn't move very racist .... Cork and everywhere else fantastic... but beware Waterford they have every flag from every nation except the union jack or flags from England Scotland or Wales !

    I naturally felt like supporting Wales earlier, after all I am a 16th Welsh I guess. I reckon New Zealand V Australia in the final

    We will just have to beat them in the final after we have got rid of South Africa and New Zealand.
