Even during the Brazil v Belgium match the half time commentary included talking about England, as if the Brazil v Belgium match wasn't worth 15 minutes of analysis.
Also, every Englishmedia commentator is jumping on the bandwaggon and talking utter shite.......most of them hate The England football team and are embarrassed by England supporters any other time.......suddenly they give a toss!
That said.......Come On England!!

However, I'd like to think that the SNP are not representative of the majority of Scottish people.
In which case, I wonder how so many were elected to Parliament.

Of course with regards to the BBC, Southern England is getting a taste of it's own medicine now that everything has moved to Manchester. It's as though nothing happens outside Salford Quays.

Yet when given the opportunity of a referendum, the majority of Scots voted to remain in the UK.
I find it difficult to relate the one to the other.

The Scots enjoy a wee bit of antagonism towards the English, especially regarding sport, but scratch the surface and the majority have no real problem with ordinary English folk.
However they hate our media and they hate our politicians and they hate the Tories/aristocracy/public school types........and rightly so !

But if the majority of Scots prefer to remain part of the UK, how did the fish woman get elected?
