If there’s ever a game where I’d want to see both sides lose, it would be tonight.
It would be funny if the perennially useless Jocks could pee on Germany’s bonfire, but we’d never hear the end of it. Videos of the skirt wearing ‘Girl Guide Army’ staggering around Munich singing about Maradona knocking England out, just about sums them up. The only thing they’ve got to sing about is an Argentinian knocking England out 40 years ago. Talk about living rent free in their heads.
It reminds me of years ago when the Scots had actually qualified for a world cup. I was driving home from work and Billy Bremner was a summarizer on the radio, when they were playing Brazil. In fairness, they got off to a great start and I think hit the crossbar in the opening minutes, only for Bremner to shout ‘Oh F##k’. After a short ‘tumbleweed’ moment the most professional of commentators carried on as if nothing had happened.
I see the German police are reportedly going to fine any English fans singing ‘Ten Bombers’. Great idea Fritz, what could possibly go wrong with needlessly winding up pissed English hooligans?
The joys of being English hey, we cannot sing a jovial piss take about defeating the murderous Nazis, but every nation on the planet is free to give us endless shit about the actions of our forefathers, be it colonialism, slavery, famine etc. etc. etc.
If you come up with the idea of creating mass extermination camps, then have to listen to a bit of ‘banter’ every two years, I would say you’re getting off quite lightly, compared to the crap the English have to take on just about everything. Can you imagine us issuing fines to the Irish every time they sung folksongs about the famine, it’s ridiculous.
As for the reported 500 Serbian hooligans looking for trouble, it would be appreciated if they could restrict their fisticuffs to any English ‘fans’ throwing bottles or the ticketless scum trying to fight their way into the ground.
Has anyone seen the Netflix documentary about the 2020 Euros final at Wembley? It’s a miracle no one was killed and sadly a blessing that England lost (and also that it started to rain), otherwise it could have been our darkest hour.
Every country has its idiots, but at least the French riot about the price of fuel. I don’t think irony comes any better than the ‘Gilets Jaunes’ petrol bombing government buildings, to protest about the price of petrol!!!

I guess we are more conditioned to cope with a German win and for the sake of world peace it’s probably best to let them win something now and again.
Just image how much suntan lotion the poor Jocks must have packed to head as far south as Munich in June and the forecast is for weather just as shite as they get at home.
To quote the Two Ronnies…….
There was an unhappy incident at Kings Cross Station tonight, when a Scottish football fan lost all his luggage. Moments after stepping off the train……
…..the cork came out.

Personally love to see Scotland win.
I hate to admit it, and as long as they lose all their remaining games, I would quite like to see the Scots scrape an undeserved win. If only as an act of Karma for the Lampard goal that never was.

I know it's never reciprocated, but I almost always have to root for the Home Nations in international competitions, plus of course the sweaties are up against the hermans, so Och Aye The Noo, or whatever it is they say north of the Wall.

Travelling home tomorrow from a brilliant fortnight on the west coast of Scotland so I’m feeling well disposed towards the Scotland team so won’t begrudge them a draw tonight.
Holy shite, it's only half time and the Jocks have lived up to expectations. 3-0 down and a bloke sent off for trying to break someones leg. How can they be so shite all the time? You have to admire their consistancy.
If it was an animal, you would take it to the vets to have it put out of its misery.

Crikey - that article doesn't pull its punches does it - and the author, BBC Scotland's chief sports writer, is Tom English (no relation I assume).
I think it was the "Angus Gunn not doing nearly enough to keep out a shot that was launched from about a quarter of a mile away" that set the tone for the rest of the article.
