Loads who aren't English apparantly do. Even when the joke is pointed out.
But let's not ruin their narrative!
So we are not laughing at England then?
For me the eye opener is that english are for a part, cocky basterds and precious little flowers. Basically, brazilians on steroids.
I’m stunned. Don’t think I have ever been so proud of an England side. It doesn’t even matter if we dont get to the final for me. This squad has made people enjoy international football again.
That’s what it’s all about, the whole nation unites to watch football. I was hugging City and Liverpool fans yesterday when Alli scored.

It was written because we were hosting Euro 96, so football was coming home.
Anyhow, I do think the way the song has been blasted out every time England scores has something to do with this taking off again. Blame the Russians.

We don’t dope lad.
Spot on, but I feel that is making this journey even better. So are so crap but in the semi final
. Certainly better than looking good but being knocked out like many teams.Not yet, although I'm not sure if one can even laugh at them at this point "haha your underrated squad achieved at least their 2nd/3rd finish at a world cup finals"

How very dare you.
I'm offended by that. Next you'll be telling me we can't handle our drink too!
Why would you laugh at the 2018 world cup winners?
ITS.COMING.HOMEWhy would you laugh at the 2018 world cup winners?
Eww I hope you had a good scrub afterwards....
0 years of hurt.
I was actually thinking about that yesterday. You guys drink like you support England, nothing or too much.
It's getting tasty in here. Redcafe making up for the lack of action on the streets of Russia.
Pwopa naughtee.
Pwopa naughtee.
Actually, the lyrics speak of hopes always being dashed since 1966 "Three lions on the shirt, Jules Rimet still gleaming, Thirty years of hurt, never stopped me dreaming'.
But hey, songs eh? Like abstract paintings....always open to interpretation.
The signs of an addict.
This will keep me ticking over until Love Island tonight, which will find it hard to compete with the bitchiness of this thread.
People take football way too seriously sometimes. Lol @ this thread, jesus
One week to go until Harry Kane lifts the World Cup and Gareth Southgate announces that we've not just won it for the nation but for the whole of the United Kingdom .
.bottom line is this is a forum - the only thing you are guilty of is having an opinion and possibly smelling like Iron Bru
good post and the people taking this thread too seriously should avoid it
even the Liverpool fans in here aren't so precious about the RAWK thread - embarrassing

Yes the words of the song go on about hurt ect, but the chorus "It's coming home" was being spoken before the song was even written. People were saying it after we won the right to host Euro 96, Football was coming home to its birthplace. Baddiel and Skinner used this.

Thanks for reply buck, but for God's sake man, it's Irn Bru. And yes, I do smell of it .
Does Fergie want England to win the world cup and if not is he in the wrong?
He'd be happy for the United lads I think like he was for Nani and Ronaldo when they won the Euros. I hope he's far enough to have enjoyed this World Cup.
I imagine that since Scotland aren't in the WC he has a preference for England but he likes France too.
Yeah that's the thing,he managed an English team,knows the players etc so you would think he would but there's a question as to would he.
True,the final could be tricky for himI imagine that since Scotland aren't in the WC he has a preference for England but he likes France too.
Mental thread now. That Barca fella needs to wind his neck in with the bigotry shouts.
Steady on there Freud! Nothing smug and mocking about saying English players are all shit and we've luckily fluked every game while being dire to watch of course!

And finally back up his accusation against @Pogue Mahone
What on earth does this have to do with anything?
Nobody is saying that other people from the home nations (or non English Man Utd fans) should want England to win the WC. Everyone is saying that is is pretty funny that you would spend such a large amount of your life following an English football team playing in England with lots of English players and set up by Englishmen, with over 50% of its managers historically being English and then actively wanting that team to fail miserably from the beginning, especially when your own country isn't in the cup. Apparently though, Man Utd basically has no link to England according to some on here.
I'm sure Ferguson wouldn't be sitting at home hoping so much that England get beaten in the WC, especially if Scotland were not there.
This is what I find both hilarious and strange in equal measure.
Some excellent wumming from some though I have to say.
I know this doesn't prove whether he would support England one way or another which highlights your point that it's not a foregone conclusion that he does.
I’m certain that Fergie would want Rashford and Lingard to win the World Cup given he helped nurture them into professionals.
Lingard is 25 years old. What kind of nurturing are you referring to?
I actually saw it on facebook that Fergie's had 'It's coming home" tattooed on his forehead.
Could have been fake news though.
Fergie knew every single player in the academy and their families. He was always an inspirational figure to all of them.
Mental thread now. That Barca fella needs to wind his neck in with the bigotry shouts.
What would you classify the stereotyping of English people/ fans as drunken, sunburnt louts, who should feel somehow ashamed of wanting to sing their country's national anthem?
@Barca84 was rightfully aggrieved.
