I ran the Swansea City supporters club with Phil for a number of years. We had a couple of hundred members and ran coaches, sometimes two and mini buses to many games home and away. Many I know now and trust me there’s a lot. Even on here.

Are they English or do they support England because they win more?
You know, like the people who support a so called top six club because they are higher than Swansea?

Swansea Indepenent Poster Of The Year 2021. Dr P / Mart66 / Roathie / Parlay / E20/ Duffle was 2nd, but he is deluded and thinks in his little twisted brain that he won. Poor sod. We let him win this year, as he has cried for a whole year. His 14 usernames, bless his cotton socks.

Supporting your own country doesn’t mean you have to be an ‘English hater’. Wanting your closest neighbours to lose games is pretty standard whether it’s club or country. Doesn’t go further than that for most people.

There’s nothing to grow up from if you haven’t taken it to childish levels in the first place.

I just smiled when the commentator minutes before kick off was taking it for granted that England would be playing in the finals, that's before a qualifying ball had been kicked. Just so arrogant.

Even though it's true it is very arrogant.

Btw i was on an exercise last week in Lincoln, we were having a few beers and a good laugh at about midnight when I young boy who I had never met before aged about 20/25 came upto us and called me a welsh sheepshgger, I told him he's lucky I am in the fire service as he would be on the floor picking his teeth up, I finished my pint and walked out.

And people still wonder why they are hated, I have taken sh!t like that for 38 years, I don't hate them, I pity them as I have many many friends who are english, they are absolutely brilliant, my mates who were with me were angry with him and totally backed me up.

I've been up here night on fifty years
When in Police , in vinegar moments of tension I got some of that
It's words
No more, no less

I've found the people here to be remarkably tolerant and fair minded

My mum used to love coming up here and she was happy I'd made a good life here

Majority of folk here invariably don't give a monkeys about England football and you will see no flagpoles with St George flags although there are three Welsh Dragons in West Kirby

Why not pop down and have a chat

You come on here goading for bites then get uppity when you get them.

Want England to lose at the rugby, but think people who want then to lose at football need to grow up.

Look back at my posts.If I had made everyone of them personal, I guess I’d have been banned by now. Never been banned from this or any other site. You?

Some are English, some were born there others just followed home nations teams. Some half n’ half Welsh English. Seen numerous Swans flags at England games and of course the cricket.

As I said there’s a few on here too.

I can't understand if you're Welsh why you would actively support England over/more than your own country just because they play/compete in most major tournaments... Not to the extent of jumping on a bus and watching them live.

If Wales aren't in a tournament and your one of those who want England to do well as supporting a fellow member of Great Britain then fair enough. I personally always support the opposition, for no other reason than the sooner England go out the less we hear in the media about how "this year is their year" and "it's coming home" and that Neil Diamond song which is now absolutely ruined. I take great joy seeing them get knocked out and having their hopes and dreams crushed

I’ve read that out of 72 hours air time on talk sport 80% of their coverage has been England. They were poor last night.

I detest them more at Rugby

An awful song

Since England ended the 100 years of the Home Internationals in 1984 with no consideration for the other sides then i have had little/no interest in them.

They ended it because they had not won anything since 1966, and that was the fault of the other sides, of course ……

So ….. does anyone know if England have won anything since 1984 ?

Any Swans fan who feels they want to support England has my full support. And I hope they enjoy it.

Beware of the Risen People

He’s just desperate for attention.

Next international break will be Groundhog Day. He’ll spoil at least one thread about Wales by saying he isn’t interested every chance he gets and will be one of the most vociferous posters on a topic he doesn’t care about.

Then he’ll say he ‘detests’ England rugby and anyone who feels similarly about England football needs to ‘grow up’.

Any chance he gets to take a thread about Wales off topic, he’ll be all over.

You’re right, I should just ignore and usually do, but can’t help taking the bait occasionally.

I recall during the premier league, possibly in the championship. But a while ago, a Wigan supporter outside the west stand walking up to people and shaking an inflatable sheep in their faces, hitting them with it as well. Someone who wasn’t with me but I know well received the same treatment. He knocked the Wigan fan clean out, his Mrs dealt with a female Wigan supporter doing the same thing.

Obviously these clowns were being monitored by the police not too far away.

Whether they looked away or ignored it I couldn’t say, but you would have expected all three to be arrested. No action required by all accounts.

People will hold their own opinions on this, as do I.

You will have read in my nightmares on 50 years here, few have given me shtick over my welshness
I've been to games at Halifax and Leeds Rd on a wet Tuesday , on my Jack, and had no problems at all
Ones demeanour can often obviate aggression or unpleasantness
However Pie Eaters are different
Invariably toddlers with a weird way of speaking
It's a kind of siege mentality one finds on council estates there

When on Plod , I really did come to blows with a D/Sgt who insisted on calling me "Taffy" plus a few add ons
This was over Rugby League with me being a Saints fan
I also took my dad to Central Parlk to see them play Saints
It wasn't pleasant
Wigan RL fans are viewed by many in the same light as LFC or Yernited
The kid giving this to Fireboy must be dumb as Eddie strikes one as quite an imposing chap and not just because of his nose
