    Probably go for Belgium if pushed mate. TBH I do not always watch Engerland games but take a passing interest and cannot really offer any valid arguments for or against them. Its just my opinion based on not a lot. To state Engerland will not it is easier than stating who I think will win it.!!

    It sort of goes with my non plussed attitude about our National team

    I hope Im proved wrong, but as you can no doubt detect, my opinion does not count for a lot in the grand scheme of things!!

    Thats refreshing. If Id posted elsewhere I would probably been accused of being unpatriotic and not having a clue etc etc etc.

    When I was living down South I went to Wembley quite often to watch them. Local shop owner used to take us there in a Minibus to watch England in Mid 60s. Lare on I was there for Tomaseski (however you spell it) for Poland match and Macdonalds 5 against Cyprus. I used to enjoy it.

    However I gradually lost interest when all the hype 'over hype began'. For some reason it puts me off a bit when people all of a sudden take interest in a team only when success is on the horizon.This applies to SAFC as well. Also the modern day footballer ( getting haircut every day!! Headphones continually on. Tattoes. etc etc puts me off a bit. I don't move with the times!!

    However, having said that, I will make a point in watching them if they reach semis etc (makes me sound a bit hypocritcal I know) but I will not hang flags out of car or drape over hedge! I will not lose any sleep or be that bothered.if tyhey get knocked out. I don't class myself as an England supporter just a football fan
