    There was no assumption, again its just lyrics lol. We british have a certain humour that, yes, many others just don't understand. Even when we knew we "only" had to play sweden/croatia I honestly don't think any england fan genuinely believed we would win the whole thing. Slight chance perhaps but not a "it's 100% defo coming home". It's just a catchy song thats all.

    Honestly, it's no joking matter. They were pretty close and they did last this long.

    I mean I don't have an issue with that side of things anyway, the trashing of IKEA stores after winning vs Sweden is the sort of thing I'd prefer we were suspended for; but FIFA is a piece of shit so w/e really.

    I think the bottom line is that enough English football fans are viewed quite accurately as a bunch of cunts that the rest of them will just have to put up with everyone wanting us to lose, and taking great delight in mocking us when we do.

    One of the few nights you might get a freebie in a Scottish pub.
    Stains on the carpet and stains on the memory
    Songs about happiness murmured in dreams
    When we both of us knew how the end always is...

    then don't watch, play it.

    i'm serious, i have plenty of friend that don't like watching football on TV but love to play it. It's really fun to control the ball and try to do whatever you want with it, of course, never touching it with the hands, only feet and body.

    Also Three Lions is a song specifically addressing pessimism. It's about having hope despite never quite making it.

    People hear one line of the song because it's easy to chant, but anyone who's actually listened to the song knows how down on England it is in parts. I mean the very first thing you hear in the song is Alan Hansen saying "I think it's bad news for the English game", followed by Des Lynam's "we're not creative enough, we're not positive enough".

    It's not an arrogant song by any stretch of the imagination. It's saying - look we've been shit, but I know we can do better.

    wow, 2 throw away accounts in this thread already swearing like little 13 year old boys behind the bikesheds smoking thinking they're literally the coolest thing on the planet.

    mmo-c needs an autoban feature or auto-kick feature like WoW & LFR, if 20 people report your post the account is instantly banned.

    to avoid abuse you need 500 posts to report someone.
