Suggesting 45% would rather England win the Euros than us win the league is utter nonsense. 100%.

TBG Posted June 11, 2024 Share Posted June 11, 2024 (edited) The one good omen going into the tournament is yes, there was some resistance, but we had pretty much taken Normandy and began pushing well into France at this point. Nothing to suggest we can't do similar and push our way out of the group stage and into the advanced rounds. Edited June 11, 2024 by TBG Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ponsaelius Posted June 11, 2024 Share Posted June 11, 2024 These people do exist. I was at a stag do last year with a Birmingham City fan, Man City fan, Southampton fan and Fulham fan - this exact question was put forward. I was the only one who said I'd prefer club, and they were even more flabbergasted when I said I'd take League Cup over the World Cup any day.

Effectively saying they would rather either of their biggest rivals in City or Liverpool win the league than them is mad like.

AyeDubbleYoo Posted June 11, 2024 Share Posted June 11, 2024 (edited) FWIW it's quite risky to express enthusiasm for supporting England, it's way cooler to say you don't care about it. The preference is a ridiculous question to be asked anyway. Edited June 11, 2024 by AyeDubbleYoo Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
leffe186 Posted June 11, 2024 Share Posted June 11, 2024 Yeah I don’t buy that at all. Two out of every five Spurs fans would rather England win Euro 2024 than us win the fucking league? Fuck off Definitely one where I would be investigating the methodology. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gbandit Posted June 11, 2024 Share Posted June 11, 2024 It's got to be one of those surveys where the question is "who's your local team" and then "would you rather they won or England" rather than approaching actual fans of their respective clubs directly Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jinky Posted June 11, 2024 Share Posted June 11, 2024 I might sacrifice a couple of points away to Crystal Palace to see England win the Euros (only if Anthony Gordon scored the winning goal!) On second thoughts....nah! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Birmingham City fan said he’d rather see England win Euro 2024 than Brum win the Premier League, with all the implications of that (your team has been completely revitalized, promoted then taken the Premier League by storm and presumably beaten Villa to the title)? If that means I’m in a bubble, then it’s a bubble of sanity. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Checko Posted June 11, 2024 Share Posted June 11, 2024 No idea what SKIMS is, googled it & from their website: "SKIMS is a solutions oriented brand creating the next generation of underwear, loungewear and shapewear." Quite frankly I'd rather they focused on creating a fucking right off solution. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

OCOCOL Posted June 12, 2024 Share Posted June 12, 2024 I like scousers. I’ve never warned to Everton but I had a grudging respect for Liverpool until recently. Their core supports like Spirit of Shankley are genuinely good people it’s the tourist / entitled hangers on that piss me off.
