I'm English, DH is Scottish and we live in Argyll.

We're both rooting for England tonight!

Thank you op
I was rooting for Scotland as their fans are amazing and so dedicated
Going to be a tough match tonight

Skinglow · 14/07/2024 18:53

Lots of us were rooting for Scotland, It's nice to see it reciprocated.

Living in Scotland- English DH rooting for England
Sister in law is Spanish … making for an interesting debate about football
No room for anti English sentiment here

Thank-you OP!
My parents were both Scottish (I was born in England) but they were big supporters of both nations when they did well. As am I!
Sometimes it feels like we are losing that and it makes me sad. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

Good for you hen

lastchancesalmon · 14/07/2024 19:21

Me too (Welsh) but also because I do not get the whole premiership football is king thing. No one extends licensing hours or says the kids can come to school late when it's 6 nations or World Cup cricket...
I've just arrived into a Euro holiday resort and every restaurant/ bar is showing the game.. we ate early and headed back to the villa before it starts 😁

2AND2GC · 14/07/2024 19:22

Thank you!

I'm English and would 100% be cheering Scotland on if the roles were reversed.

This is nice. I am English but live in Ireland so my instagram algorithm is basically full of ‘hilarious’ Irish influencers pretending to be Spanish. I’m not normally in possession of a sense of humour bypass but after a while the constant bashing of the English just feels a bit mean and unnecessary.

(sorry just needed to get that off my chest 😳

Mystro202 · 14/07/2024 19:47

I'm Irish and wishing England well! I can't see why there is so much bitterness, the team has done so well to get this far..something Ireland, Northern Ireland, Scotland and Wales haven't done in a long time!! Ireland didn't even qualify ffs 🤭

TheDogsMother · 14/07/2024 19:49

That's really nice to hear OP ❤️.

GargoylesofBeelzebub · 14/07/2024 20:21

Me too!

Covidwoes · 14/07/2024 20:42

Me too! I'm Scottish, but have lived in England (with English DH) for years! I don't mind the banter rivalry, but when people get serious and offensive about it (or should I say, 'discusting' 😂), I have no time for it.
