I think one of the reasons that St. Georges day is a bit poo is that our flag sucks goats. We should design a new one. I mean 2 colours. Thats pretty lame. The Irish one is all ready 50% better.

Check out the bad boy flag of Venezuela for example.

I think it's something to do with the English public being too sensible to get excited about a patron saint that isn't English, never set foot in the country, and whose only claim to fame is the slightly dubious tale of having a bit of a dust up with an entirely mythical creature somewhere deep in the Palestinian desert where independent witnesses were a bit thin on the ground.

Why didn't England get their own saint instead of appropriating some Turkish bullshit artist?

can't completely disagree with those sentiments, but isn't the point of it not who st. george was but what he stood for?
