Don't they? Hence my reference to sheep

Jye

But Tel, surely these are the views of only a few peeps on a motoring forum, hardly representative of Scotlands whole population and of those disinterested in football generally. A bit like saying all English fans are thugs when we know it's only two or three people that cause trouble

Claire I am not offended by anything I am just fed up with people baiting each other and slagging off just for the hell of it, when I walked into work today I had **** from the Germans about it and amd still getting it from people as they see me, then I log on to scoobynet and the Scots are dishing out the ****, like I said earlier if it was one thread fine but it isn't it is about 6 threads on 4 different forums.

imlach

Oh no Wurzel,

Don't mention the Germans

Diablo

Its not just the papers, its the TV and radio. TBH the BBC has a lot to answer for. You get BBC Scotland, but there's no BBC England, is there?

Tel, you ever been to Wales or Ireland mate?

There is more Anti English feeling in some parts of Ireland and Wales than in the whole of Scotland.

But then, everone hates the Welsh

And try Cornwall that was an eye opener.

eClaire

Ok, so what if we had just the one thread? To be honest, it has died down last time I looked! The English of all people should have plenty to say to the Germans

Jye

Wurzel, why does it bother you so much? It's only a stupid game, hardly a threat to world peace.

imlach

Anyway, there was a lot of french-baiting going on the other day....what happened to all of that, and why was that ok?

Redkop

Where have I said hatred with regards to football? Age-old rivalry... my ***! There is pure hatred in what some Scots think of England and English people!

I have visited Scotland a few times, so have seen and heard it for myself, especially when Celtic played Liverpool in UEFA cup last year. Why do you think Diouf got fined.... did you think he was responded by spitting on a Scot to a complimentary remark - eh?

Diablo

Lynne, thats a bit unfair

There are loads of English living happily all over Scotland, likewise loads of Scots in England.

If anything its a sweeping generalised bigotry

just what was the competition question before the start of the game last night??!?!?! was it not "who scored the winning goal against scotland?"???? gazza it of course was, cannae forget, fabulous goal, but was there any need to make it look like rubbing our noses in it?!?!?

eClaire

Don't tar us all with the same brush!!!!!

You know fine well I don't hate the English missus!

RichWalk

The Cornish LOL, they hate everyone whos not Cornish, very straight forward if you ask me! This thread is about is stereotypes, one on one with any nationality will be a different deal altogether

Diablo

You also have to know that football as a game has its own supporter and player issues.

You would never find that kind of hatred anywhere but at a football match.

imlach

...so the non-english liverpool player was repsonding to an anti-english remark was he? Anyway, a lot of celtic fans are not scottish - I believe you are a celtic fan as well???

...and when a french player (manU captain of old?) kicked a fan at a ManU premiership match, that was to do with national bigotry was it?

Redkop

That's why I said some Claire , how come some people miss out on the all important words sometimes?

Diablo

LOL...I was just going to ask if Diouf was not a strange name for an Englishman

Redkop

Would same thing have been said to a player of his nationality if he played in SPL?

Wurzel

Ok now this is funny unfortunately it is in Dutch and German.

http://www.schade-deutschland-alles-ist-vorbei.com/

Go and look at the section that says Deutsche Fans

Also the Photo Gallery section. When did Holland beat Scotland 6.0?????

Regards

Wurzel feeling a bit happier

Jye

Sweeping generalisation mode - Anyone who supports Celtic (or Rangers) is a sectarian biggot

Diablo

That would depend upon whether or not he played for Rangers or Celtic

imlach

Exactly. Quite what a liverpool v celtic match has to do with nationalistic bigotry, I don't know. Especially when the player involved was not english

eClaire

PMSL Jye

Diablo

Thank **** I didn't have email notification turned on

vindaloo

Ahh, the country air, the smokey pungence of a real cottage fire

Redkop.

I don't know where you're going with this, but you seem to be headed in the direction of ANY abuse thrown around a football match!

Shows what a load of mindless chavs the fans are

Diablo

Whats that I hear?




































Aha! - Lynne thinking

Redkop

Loosely speaking - yes, but I don't slate or hate the Scots - subtle difference.

Totally off topic... it's Scots and English we are talking about, other teams bigotry can be discussed another time.

Imlach, errrr where have I mentioned any other nation? I think you are slightly digressing

imlach

Errr...so why exactly did you raise the issue of a non-English liverpool player at a celtic match as an example of english hatred?

You started it

Jye

hole - must - dig - deeper
