Now me, I'm normally a real England fanatic. Get very worked up before games, get very nervous, etc. But this year, I'm looking forward to Euro 2004, but I really, really can't wait until next season in Div 1.

In the past, I've always thought that the national team was of primary importance, but now, I think the success of my Albion (yes, it's mine, all mine :p ), is more important than England.

Is it just me?

Div 1 for me. England are shite at the moment and I dread the game against France. We could get walloped big time.


:nono:

Both for me as i'm proud to be English and a fan, obviosuly next season speaks for itself but I would like to see England win something...although I reckon the 1/4's is as far as we'll get this year.

England is a different kind of support innit.
When the National team are in a major tournament, its special. The whole nation follows it, and every match is truley a national event. I love the Albion, and they will always take priority, but when it comes to England, theres nothing quite like a summer tournament to galvanise your mates and get the adrenaline pumping. Get this from the legendary Bobby Robson:

"Every time England wins, its the most marvellous feeling every time. Because you know you're representing the whole nation. When we did well at Ipswich, we did well for that community - but when Ipswich win, nobody in Plymouth gives a monkeys, do they ? Nobody in Carlisle gives a monkeys. But when England win, the postman in Carlisle, and the girl who sells papers in Plymouth, they care. Because its the nation."

(thats a quote from the best football book EVER by the way - All Played Out by Pete Davies).

I'm afraid England will let us down again so I can't wait for the next season. I'll be watching Euro 2004 and supporting all the way but I won't be able to get to the games, bloody teachers job means no mid term holidays, and have a funny feeling we won't do particularly well. No-ones fault, we just don't have the players. Having said that, we could do a Denmark circa 1992.

Div 1 and brighton next year all the way. Struggle to get excited when it comes to England- no real reason but I'm definately a club rather than a country man, never too bothered about England until the actual finals and even then i never get too excited about em.

I just can't f*****g wait till we're playing the likes of Leeds and West Ham next year!!!

Has to be next season, watched the Japan game in Tuesday hoping it would get me looking forward to euro 2004, it did the opposite, and we will get hammered by the French.
