I'm hoping that Andy Murray wins the Wimbledon finals this Sunday. It will be a unique viewing experience for the British public and one not likely to be repeated for many years. I'll be glued to the T.V, savoring every moment, so that when I'm old I can tell my grandchildren that I was watching when it happened. . .

It dosent matter if Murray wins or loses. He'll STILL be a right soor faced bugger! I reckon if he cracked a smile his face would fall off.
Oh and the media used to be bad for the whole British winner/Scottish loser (especially the BBC) but they aren't nearly as bad now. Personally I resent the English medias self proclaimed, god given right to win everything every time. The euro cup was a very refreshing change where they played down their chances and I was actually rooting for them in the end. Well, it was either that or support Italy!
It's always interesting seeing peoples reactions on holiday when they ask "are you English" and I reply "oh no, I'm Scottish." They look like they've just kicked me in the balls.

Unless he's holding it on his shoulder that doesn't make sense, even plumbing the low levels the joke was going for.
Everyone hates the English. It's just a general fact.
Except Americans and Japanese. They seem to love the English.

This. It's just the usual banter between rival teams/nations...but the universal will for England to fail is usually due to all the expectation.

Skim read it and thought it was a joke about Scots having a chip on their shoulder which would have been funnier, even when incorrectly told, than the actual joke.
I'd love Scotland to become an independent country like all the politician's seem to want up there. Free dental care services, free of charge prescriptions, free long-term care for the elderly and university tuition – all paid for by English taxes.
Let them have independence and good riddance.

You're forgetting that we'd have a permanent Tory government if they broke away.

Jesus Christ, this is exactly what I was talking about before. ALL of this has been talked about so many times it's embarrassing and pointless.
If I had the time or the inclination then I'd link every single one of the threads which 'debate' these points. There's a reason that these posts stay in GD and not SC.
Most mainlanders I've met are *******s.
The English are the worst. Every time there's a sports contest it's going to be England's year. They've won sod all of importance since 1966. That's why they got the Olympics. The rest of the world felt bad for them and the rest of the world said "like hell we're going to try and top China's opening ceremony, give it too England". And only the English are arrogant enough to believe they can. And no matter what tripe they trot out the country will come together claiming it was the best opening ceremony ever. They also never shut the **** up about the 1966 world cup, or the ****ing olympics. Or the war. Or how good "our boys" are. They conquered the world, but get ****ed off when the natives of those conquered lands follow them home. When they go on holiday they do so like they're still conquering and crusading by drinking their way across the country and ****ing over everything and fighting with all the natives.
The Scottish are hateful people who hate everything for no good reason. To justify their hatred of everything and anything they blame everything and anything from the English to the Troubles and sectarian conflict in Northern Ireland. It's so boring in Scotland with nothing to do but become an alcoholic or heroin addict. They also like knives because the savages haven't discovered fire, gun powder or electricity.
The Welsh are Welsh and the less said about them the better. The accent is horrific. The food is awful. The weather sucks. The towns and villages are so depressing in Wales that instead of having outbreaks of alcoholism or drug addiction like in Scotland the youth kill themselves on mass.
The Irish are twinkly eyed ladder stealing drive way tarmac'ers. The world would be a much better place if the entire island was sunk.

I sense you post says a lot about you actually, low self esteem is somewhat apparent.
Did you put on your Daily Mail armband before you typed that?
O bhatt, ew need a cwtch or wat?
Wales is magnificent, I can pop on a bus and go to Cardiff in less than a hour - or walk through the countryside which surrounds my little village.

I don't think they hate the English, but England, if that makes sense. I have Scottish friends and they have nothing against me personally.
But when you see the way they are treated by the government, and the BBC is it really any wonder? Tories are anti working class and scotland is almost entirely working class, for them things can only get worse.
To be honest when scotland is independent I'm probably going there.

Read some of the old posts.
Or don't and pretend that you're telling us some new, wonderful thoughts which you and only you have just come up with! My, it's so exciting! Why has no one done this before?
Well they have but they also understood all of the issues before posting tripe.
