    Everything you’ve just said is not true.

    Most I spoke to yesterday wasn’t that confident to beat Malta, never mind win everything. We’ve seen too many disappointments. Don’t judge everyone for some weird comments on social media.

    Also, i and many others don’t claim to not care about Scotland or Wales, I love the Welsh and Scottish people call a lot of them friends and colleagues. However, when it comes to international football I always look for their results and hope they’ve took a massive tonking. Scottish football fans must have an impressive selection of flags now, seem to always wave flags of whoever England are playing. :D

    There can’t possibly be anyone in the whole of human history, who wouldn’t have expected an England win yesterday?

    Just seen the second goal Ian, and what a goal it was! Love team goals like that. Always have time for the Scots in general and don't mind them doing well. Same with NI. Was the same with Wales until recently, but they're a bit insufferable when it comes to football - maybe it was the Bale effect.

    Hmm well all I can say is I’m in heaven.
    Got to be honest I never expected this and let it continue.
    Not an international football fan. I love my club football but all of a sudden I’m interested in Scotland’s involvement.
    But history suggests it will all end in tears.
    Hopefully not and until it does I’ll enjoy the moment.

    Doing extremely well mate - a great result against Norway, a team with a couple of genuine world class superstars and plenty of excellent footballers. Never been a fan of international football, only club football, but sometimes when things are finally looking up, it is very easy to get swept up in it. Enjoy it whilst you can, because as you say, and as we know, it doesn't always last long!

    I’ve followed England away a fair bit and I don’t ever get that vibe from those in attendance, I think that attitude comes more from the England supporters who don’t actually attend.

    Watching England away is almost like following Barnsley, you turn up in some ex soviet territory and you see the same faces every trip. Made some brilliant mates along the way, the majority all support lower league clubs. The big competitions fetch all the numpties out, but that’s the same anywhere.
