What a lovely thoughtful thread OP ❤

shockthemonkey · 15/07/2026 16:22

Thank you OP! I’m British/French so I hope to heal my heart after yesterday’s disappointment from Les Bleus.

I love Scotland btw and have had many a fantastic trip there.

Good on you, thanks 😀

Hi, wishing England luck too from Wales!

the80sweregreat · 15/07/2026 16:26

I think that they will need it tbh!
Thank you.

MrsBennetsPoorNervesAreBack · 15/07/2026 16:26

Thank you, that's nice to hear.

I was absolutely rooting for Scotland every match they played, and so it's nice to see that it is reciprocated.

2dogsandabudgie · 15/07/2026 16:28

Thank you OP. Very nice of you.

Thank you 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿
I'm half Scottish so wanted both to do well.

(Northern) Irish and wishing England 'Good Luck' too! I'm not into football at all but quite excited that they've got this far

FuzzyPuffling · 15/07/2026 16:47

Thank you. Some of the posts on those threads are really rather upsetting.

English woman with Scottish DH here- he is also rooting for England.

We were rubbish as usual lol which was disappointing as we played so well to qualify, still worth it for the party! It is reciprocated by lots of Scottish folks but the arseholes shout louder than us! Most of it is banter as we do love to laugh but some take it too serious!

It was a shame that they didn't make it through. The Scottish fans did Scotland proud, though - I love the fact that they raised funds and made donations in the cities that hosted them.

Thank you wee Scottish woman! From a wee English woman 😁

Your thread has really made my day. I always want our fellow UKers to do well too.

DurhamDurham · 15/07/2026 18:04

Thank you! It’s our turn to host the neighbours for a match and I fear if we lose tonight we’ll get the blame 🤣

HoppityBun · 15/07/2026 18:06

I have no interest in football, can’t tell one end of a pitch from the other but I wish them well and I think that your message is a delight OP.

Also, it’s not coming home.

FuzzyPuffling · 15/07/2026 18:07

We're off to watch it at church. The big screen normally has hymn words and notices on it!

Any1ForTennis · 15/07/2026 18:10

Good Luck England😀 from one of your Scottish cousins.

Greenleavesandsunshine · 15/07/2026 18:14

Thank you for voice of reason.

Aw you're welcome. It's nice to be nice so they say, too much aggro these days. We should always stick together ❤️🇬🇧

I’ll always support England if they play one of the UK nations.

At any other time I will support Scotland, Wales, Northern Ireland against whoever they are playing.

If no UK nations are involved I tend to support the underdog.
