You've hit the nail on the head! That's why Barnsley winning promotion would be better than England winning the World Cup. All these plastic football fans, part of me wouldn't mind England going out as it would piss on their bonfire. If all those people in Barnsley that had England flags on their houses or cars actually bothered going to a game Oakwell would be sold out every game.
Again - I don't mind I'm British when it's the Olympics and English when it's football. I want Scotland to lose when they are in the World Cup, it least I think I did but my memory isn't what it was! It's not even as though he represents Britain at Wimbledon as it's an individual and not a national sport.
