England Fans - Who will you support now?

terryfinch · Post by **terryfinch** » Sat Oct 03, 2015 10:16 pm

France for me. They have made the final several times and would be great to see them win it.

Wales and Australia

Think Australia can win it
Loved Wales fight against adversity

I can't bring myself to like kiwis and hate all things South African.

I guess I will support Aus and Ireland.

You should cheer for your province Wales.

jabberwocky · Post by **jabberwocky** » Sat Oct 03, 2015 10:20 pm

I'm already over it. I was 95% sure we'd lose today.

Last week was the gutting one.

The land of my (grand)fathers from here on.

Or maybe Ireland, they're a lot easier to support without Rog.

Missus is Welsh and likes rugby so unfortunately I have no choice. With the frogs players being together without their horrendous club system being counter productive they have the best chance of the nh teams though

As someone that lives in England, it has to be Wales.

All Blacks. Need some guranteed victories to cheer me up.

The Man Without Fear · Sat Oct 03, 2015 10:21 pm

Australia. Although I now worry they're the team that rip it uo early on and stuff it in the semifinals.

croyals · Post by **croyals** » Sat Oct 03, 2015 10:21 pm

Japan but assuming they don't make it out the group stages France. Allez les Bleus!

I said Australia and Wales at the start and won't change.

Still a shitty thread. The home team who are meant to be semi half decent have gone out in our own tournament..

Wales first, Aus second .. and Japan third. Am I allowed a third?

Zico · Post by **Zico** » Sat Oct 03, 2015 10:23 pm

An Breathain beag (Little Britain) would be the obvious choice.

Come on English, get behind Scotland, they're the pluckiest of the home nations.

Yeah, I wasn't very nervous for this game, I couldn't see us winning it - one reason why I was so gutted last week was that we started to look like such a shambles all across the park. Couldn't see that being put right in a week, especially with Farrell at SH.

I'm going to decide on a match by match basis - It'll actually be more enjoyable to watch now that I have no great stake in it.

Dont care who the poms support just as long as we dont have to listen to the insufferable swing low.

terryfinch · Post by **terryfinch** » Sat Oct 03, 2015 10:27 pm

Can all the non-English fans please F*** Off from this thread. When they've done that, f*** off a bit further. Thanks.

Softsteel · Post by **Softsteel** » Sat Oct 03, 2015 10:28 pm

I have some o'softsteel lineage but I quite like the way the Ozzies are playing.

Raggs · Post by **Raggs** » Sat Oct 03, 2015 10:30 pm

Aus and Ireland here. Aus because I think they can win it, Ireland because I think they can raise their intensity, they're a home nation, and I'd love to see them make it all the way.

I've always loved you, Raggs.

I guess it would be the team that deservedly beat your team..... Oz.

Wendigo7 · Post by **Wendigo7** » Sat Oct 03, 2015 10:37 pm

Im moving to Australia next year, so yeah, Aus. I'll end up loving them anyway and Foley was world class tonight after what I felt was an indifferent season from him.

That's the most complete Aussie performance in a LONG time.

Always Wales. Balls of steel and your great under pressure. Just don't rub it in.

Hawk97 · Post by **Hawk97** » Sat Oct 03, 2015 10:37 pm

Aus vs NZ final

Whoever most deserves it on the balance of style, play, bravery, guts, underdogness and general worthiness. Such is the beauty of neutrality.

The other disappointment of the group of death was that there were fewer good games in other groups ( a Wales V. Sa for example.)

That would be good, but Ireland might have something to say about that...

You're describing The Goonies, who don't have the pack to survive the knock out stages.

Wommers is English, they would play chunk at 8 and Sloth at 7.

Dai Hard · Post by **Dai Hard** » Sat Oct 03, 2015 10:50 pm

The English still have a game against Uruguay to look forward to.
Once that's out of the way then they can think about who to support. I expect many will want to support the Welsh.

armchairfan · Post by **armchairfan** » Sat Oct 03, 2015 10:51 pm

Australia ( because I have some class Aussie relatives ) and Ireland ( cause my missus is half Irish )
Wales can go swing thanks to the c@nt plastic Welshy Facebook knob who gloats whenever anyone beats England but doesn't know the first thing about rugby.
