Subjugating the Scots in the name of Empire for hundreds of years.
Being better than Scots at pretty much everything.
We dont have anything to be jealous off. We get subsidised education, we get free prescriptions, we get cleaner air, better water, quieter roads, better standard off living all at your taxpayers expense.
Yeah mate, we are really jealous
Only some. I actually laughed when I saw him on the telebox, although I did also think it's a bit same-old-pathetic-Scottish-nonsense.
Fine line between banter and prejudice and all that.
Dont like the definition of racism so you belittle those that point it out to you. Good one.
Most will support one of the home nations, many will also pick another underdog team forma small country to support, that might be countries like Uruguay for example.
weird, he gets referred to as Scotland's Andy Murray when he loses but when he wins he's Britain's Andy Murray .......

Yeah, but we got your oils and Westminster.
Scotland is truly stunning scenery wise, if the weather was better I'd be struggling to think of reasons to stay in England
Plus everyone just seems so friendly (Irrespective of whether they want England to lose at football).
I posted in post 2. I don't see your point honestly. This whole thread was a deliberate kick in the nuts toward English football fans. Why shouldn't I defend myself and my team as an Englishman? Are you one of those people who think that only your opinion counts ? Are you a solipsist ?

Can you prove that with some links? I'm pretty certain it's a common myth as I've never seen him referred to as Scotlands Andy Murray in the press.
Only every really seen him referred to as Britain's number one.
Murray was all "I'm not British, I'm Scottish" until Wimbledon where he was quite happy to accept the English cheering him on and drape himself in Union colours.
Some Scots are just plebs when it comes to the whole nationalism thing. No different from our EDL morons.
No, but what he's highlighting is continuing anti English sentiment amongst parts of Scotland and the Scottish people.
As I've said, basically racism.
If you honestly believe that it's racist to support another nation then yes I will belittle you. You still haven't said what detriment or even who in particular has been discriminated against.
You're arguing you can't support an international team, seriously?

You can defend yourself with resorting to racial slurs, when you cant even spell the racial slur correctly then you make yourself look pretty stupid.
Imho of course

So you win because I said 'Jok' instead of 'Jock'. Ok. Thanks for clearing that up.
