So you’re cheering….Italy? Who famously have no historic (or in fact present) issue with right wing populism…

These people 🤦‍♂️
They’ve got it correct. If we don’t empower Trippier or Walker down that right wing, we’ll probably lose. It’s that wing we should target.

And what about all the ones who said they don't bother watching England play and can't be arsed whether they win, lose or draw?

😉

They tend to repeat how little they care, louder and louder until they get the attention they crave for ‘not caring’, then watch the same as everyone else even though they don’t care

I’d argue that the only reason they had 10 men was that they were under so much pressure that they had to use up all their subs. So we basically forced them to play with 10 👍
I’ve missed something here! I didn’t notice anything. Why 10 men?

They'll all be watching of course and desperately hoping we lose to satisfy their joyless lives

Verona, Italy
Maguire is going to have to be careful, they have likely singled him out as someone easy to wind up. His reaction to the yellow card and moaning about it 5 mins later will have been noted.

They used up all their subs..

couldn’t believe how long it took tv to realise

Yeah. Bizarre squad management to run out of substitutions when you have 6 available.

I thought them making a triple sub & removing Larsen, Damsgaard & Dolberg so early was madness & handed impetus to us. Especially as I believe Christensen was down injured at the time & had to come off shortly after.

These ones get hidden under the "didn't happen " nonsense

Really looking forward to this now. Gonna be one of those "Where were you" events that you look back on for years to come. Usual place we went to watch it had 2000 people trying to get 50 tables, just got a table sorted elsewhere now.

It does literally feel like Europe v England. Support whoever England are against.

Not really. Plenty of European countries have a genuine rivalry with Italy and would probably prefer if we win for a change.

It;s not a new thing, it's happened for years hasnt it?

As for booing opposition players, I am all for it. Especially when it's a whole stadium booing every time a player gets the ball.

Rememebr Jodi Jones against Lincoln was getting it from their fans, he then scored. :)

As for the Scots on social media moaning about our fans disgraceful behaviour.




Long story short , the hypocrisy levels on social media and in the media are pathetic

Can't stand him, always going on about morals and all that. Pipe down mate.

Booing has happened for as long as I can remember from going to football.

I don't like it too much, but I'm not at the point of getting all wound up about it- but let me ask this

Why bother with the booing, what do people get out of it? I don't see why people are so protective about it

If its "tradition", "It was always the way" etc- well so was chucking bananas at black players & darts at opposing fans, and smashing up pubs. Kind of at a loss as to why people want their rights reserved to act stupid

But sanctioning countries for it, not sure how anyone is going to enforce that, there will be a lot of fines handed out

Not sure how you can equate throwing bananas at players with booing an anthem but OK

The anti English rhetoric is frankly predictable and boring

I hope he doesn't plan on going to see his country play in Poland, Russia, Hungary etc, he might find himself reassessing who the real baddies are in European football at the moment if he does.

I don't understand why it's always England that get the stick .
Easy targets with media that have always twisted the knife on the fans anyway and a new age of fucking social media melts that just hate their country and its countrymen.

Fuck off to be blunt
