Bonzo - it has nothing to do with being British or considering ones self as British. My sentiments are aimed directly at English Football. Also, for your information, Trinidad and Tobago are a member of the British Commonwealth, so using your own logic of "Britishness" it should be perfectly acceptable for the First Minister or any other Scot to support them during the World Cup.
NATN - it has nothing to do with 1966 and everything to do with the attitude that they think they have a god given right to win the World Cup and every other freaking tournament or match they play in. They have already arranged their World Cup Victory party FFS, and their hasn't been a ball kicked yet.
I don't give a flying feck who does or does not support England or any other country during the World Cup, but it does annoy the chit out of me when people think it is perfectly OK to tell me who I should or should not be supporting.
