I know plenty of English people who say the want Scotland to do well......I live in England, near Guildford 

At least you are honest about not wanting us to win

I suspect these are the types that follow football every two years at a tournament and to be fair they are allowed to if they want to ! if we are honest the most enjoyment football fans get is from schadenfraude and other teams misery unless you support Man city, Real Madrid or PSG and you are French or Spanish.

If by some miracle England make it to the final and Kane does a gabriel and balloons it over the bar in a shootout , Scotland would be rocking. I would expect nothing less !

You would suspect wrong mate, they are mix of Spurs 👍, Aldershot, Woking, Palace, Man U, Reading, Arsenal 🤮 fans. Don't worry, I told them they were full of shite when they said they want Scotland to do well 🤣

We dont support you. I hope you get horsed. I celebrated like a loon when Gabriels penalty went over that bar because i dislike Arsenal intensely . Although perversely I hope Robertson has a good WC now (that purely Spurs related however) I dont want you to win anything just like you dont want us to win anything and that feeling i suspect is mutual across most genuine football supporters. 

dont believe the English media they're twats 😉 Nothing wrong with a bit of banter and a piss take.  

edit- My dad, sister and eldest boy are gooners and they got some abuse, it doesnt mean i dont really love them. I would add that I would have to get to know you before professing my love for you however 

Good on you for posting here and adding to the variety of chats.

Of course I hope you have a terrible tournament because I think you're manager is a bit of a knob (no offense Nobby 😁 ).

I do agree that arsenal and Arteta are also dicks. 😄

Good to have you back. The TAMB is is all the better for having other football fans here. 

But ssn and 60 years of of hurt, rolling out Geoff Hurst etc is painful viewing up north. 😆

Livramento drops out injured and is replaced by Chalobah. Alexander-Arnold must feel he'll never play for England under Tuchel.

He is their Oli McBurnie!

26 man squad and they’ve got 3 full backs. One of whom is Reece James who makes Dujon Sterling look robust, another is a 21 year old with only 3 caps and the other is Djed Spence.

Although I guess O'Riley could play left back and Quansah has played right back. I'd still be fed up if I were T A-A!

Credit where it's due. . . . they looked impressive (second half). . . . . . .although that Croatia team is a shadow of side from a few years ago. . . . .time for Modric to hang up his boots.

They looked very good going forward but pretty poor at the back.  A team like France would rip them apart.

Who's up next for them? Lapland?

They will probably get Jordan in the round of 32.

🤣🤣🤣🤣

Aye, he's past it now, sadly.

Wow Congo all over us. What a great save. England so frustrating to watch. Got to pull something out the bag. Got no chance playing like this. Although the last ten minutes in the first half they’re playing better. Panicked and desperate pretty much sums it up.

Wow what a game. Super hard to watch but we progress. All three goals were fantastic. Congo played so hard and the keeper was unbelievable. Sloppy to start but so glad we pulled it out of the bag in the end. Kinda feel sorry for Congo the way they played. I expected them to win.

Englands defence is honking and their keeper is very , very suspect.  No idea how he has survived as their number 1 for so long.

I'm guessing there are no alternatives.

Dean Henderson seems to be their only goalkeeper who played regularly in a top level league last season. Nick Pope and Aaron Ramsdale alternated at Newcastle. The others were all back-up options or playing at a lower level IIRC.

Fantastic game against Mexico. I’m glad I didn’t watch it. 😂 Proper nail biting. Though the over hype is massive now. Annoying the hell out of me with all the it’s coming home bollocks and we’ve definitely got this. God knows how y’all put up with it. 😂😂 If it’s annoying me I have no idea how you lot feel. People will never learn to just sit back and see. I would love to see us win but been disappointed plenty in the past. So just take each game as it comes along. At least I can watch Eng Nor. YouTube definitely isn’t the same without the Tartan army out there.

England get to the Semi Final without playing a single top 10 team. Scotland get two in our group. That's probably fair enough because we have been so shit that we don't deserve any better. Morocco will have to play 4 top 10 teams to get to the final. Spain will have to play 3. France will have to play 2. It's all designed to wear all the top teams down before they have to play England in the final. Corrupt as fuck and just totally blatant.

Think Norway are a perfect team for England.  Can see them winning 2-0 and also then beating a very beatable Argentinian side.

In France we trust.

Its hardly the end of the world if England win the world cup.

im sure we are grown up enough to congratulate them on what would be a massive achievement if they pull it off.

its not like we have a chip on our shoulder or small man syndrome or anything like that.
