I don't think I really want England to qualify for the World Cup.
I've always wanted England to win before, it's just I've grown to quite like Germany and the Germans, and I can't stand the thought of thousands of our fans acting like complete cunts over there. Simply because it is Germany, you'll have every lad who thinks he's a hooligan over there throwing plastic chairs, fighting with local turks, and being obnoxious to the natives. I don't see that as a way to visit a place myself, maybe I'm just old fashioned.
I haven't even really got a particular problem with hooliganism, although that's a different discussion. It more that I struggle to comprehend why people would actually act that way, rather than seeing what a place was like.
I love my country very much, and therefore I see it through very cynical eye, looking at all it's flaws. I know our fans are tarnished with a bad reputation and will always be scrutinized and critisized much quicker. But I think there must be a cultural problem in this country to make so many people act in that way.
Can't keep hold of the ball anyway, and you'll never succeed at international level unless you can.

my mate amir feels the same, don't get it! :? That's odd, two Amir's and they both don't want England to qualify. It's a conspiracy damnit. I maintain there's nothing wrong with a bit of hooliganism, as long as it doesn't go too far and is between people who actually want it! |
