To be sick of this 'it's coming home' nonsense

It's not coming home. Who ever said England is home? It makes us look idiotic to the rest of the world. Someone on the radio said they really believe England is going to win this year. The rest of the world must be pissing themselves looking at England cheering over such a mediocre team and having such delusions of grandeur.

It also seems to make people behave like hooligans. I've seen some crazy driving before the matches start, and people were making noise until the early hours last night.

It's just a game! We never get this excited about the olympics, Wimbledon or even Rugby.

YABU. I am not keen on football but let the masses have their moment of glory I'd say.

I'm tiring of drunken singing of "Football's Coming Home" that I can hear from some house in the neighbourhood. It's spoiling my enjoyment of the tennis. Wink

When this all started I really couldn’t care less if we were knocked out in the group stages. I don’t hate the hysteria that surrounds it... I’m just not part of it.

However.... the amount of people on here who actively loathe anyone taking any joy from any success England might be having, or needing to squash any hope with ridicule.. has really made me get behind it all now!!

CONE IN ENGLAND!!! ITS COMING HOOOOOOOMMMMEEEE!!!!!🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

Yes - I expect Spain, Brazil, Argentina, Germany et al are well "pissing themselves over such a mediocre team..."

Football has looked at the flights and is now viewing properties.

FarFlungFairy · 07/07/2018 17:05

Oh just go and have a shag or something and chill the fuck out.

Shockers · 07/07/2018 17:05

I’m loving hearing it sung from the beer gardens of the town’s pubs.

They’re a tuneful bunch considering how much they’ve clearly put away Grin
