AIBU to be English,  but really really want  Scotland to win the world cup.

The old firm thugs are a world away from the tartan army-they’re an embarrassment to humankind, never mind football

This post was based on Op saying she wanted Scotland to win.
Of course most English people want England to win. And because we are accustomed to getting in tournaments all the time, it would be extremely rare for anyone to even mention Scotland.

Yes. We went off to the U.S. after Aberdeen. A breath of fresh air.

Have you ever been to a Celtic / Rangers match?

Sorry but please do go and then say Scottish football fans are well behaved.

Let’s see if the same is true by the end of the competition

Show off! Grins.
I am opposite one, it's about 7 meters away. One down the road, about 30 meters and one to my left, about 10 meters.

Luckily we've bought a do upper house, so by the time the Euro's come around be far away! I may even go back to hoping someone in the UK does well... :-)

@fruitandbarley Here's hoping, hen!

Here in the USA atm,really not liking the Scottish fans here! Loud, rude and really, really drunk, swearing and being dicks, letting the kids run amok because the football is on, about 15/20 families.. So not the whole of Scotland but letting down their country!

YABU. It is against the law

I was born and brought up in England but have a mixed Scottish and Northern Irish background. I consider myself British. I'm married to someone who is half Welsh, half Spanish. This conveniently allows for strategic selection of who to support in a number of sports!😂
I'm supporting Scotland currently. My adult children live in Scotland and have Scottish partners so it's easier to all be on the same side. I would genuinely like to see them do well, but I have alternative options for later in the tournament. I have to say I thought Spain were going to be my best bet but I'm not so sure now! I won't be losing much sleep though. It's only a game after all.

English and 100% supporting England. Personally I think YABU but it's a free world, you can support who you like. English and proud here. But no doubt saying this will offend someone.

And Sir Chris Hoy of course.

I think Andy Murray, Eilish McColgan and Duncan Scott would like a word ….. and that’s just quickly off the top of my head.

What? Tennis, cycling, golf, judo… we do well at plenty of sports. And our fans don’t act like total louts.

@countrylife00nope. Happy resident here - doesn’t suit everyone but maybe that’s for the best 😂

Are you the same Alpaca poster who goes on and on about the SNP at any chance you get.

Ah the Scottish fans look like they are having the best time over in Boston. In any big group there will always be arse holes but on the whole I imagine it’s all good fun.

I am Scottish and first and foremost, Scotland have my backing. But I also want England to win if Scotland don’t. Im in the minority - but I’m guessing the OP is in the minority too! Everyone knows about Scotland v England rivalry!

Also 1966 ruined it for England. They sickened everyone by how much they went on about it and still go on about it.

Almost 50 years ago? Is that the best you can do

NO SCOTLAND NO PARTY

Of course you're not going to find many Scots wanting England to win. Do you know nothing about football?

England and Scotland have one of the oldest and most traditional rivalries in football.

If Scotland were regularly competing at England's level in major tournaments, plenty of England fans would be cheering for their elimination too. The idea that England fans support Scotland is a myth. When people say it, it's either out of pity, because Scotland rarely gets far in these tournaments, or simply to gaslight.

But Scotland don’t care. They are just happy to be in the game this time, and yes once out will happily support anyone but their rivals, just to wind England up.

The oddest tithing about it is why on earth does England care and take it so personally 🤷🏻‍♀️ Football rivalries aren't always logical, but that's part of what makes them rivalries.

SCOTT MCTOMINAY I LOVE HIM TILL MY HEART ACHES

England all the way for me. But I do feel sorry for Scotland. They just never seem to be successful at any sport. It must be frustrating for them….

The World Cup is next year OP! 😂
