You see, I love football, support a team through thick and thin and used to love England (I even got a tattoo d*unk after a game in '96) but years of bullshit has driven me away. I even lost two jobs due to England!! |

I enjoy watching/listening to football. Good job we are all different and like different things.

" We're just embarrassed to show any form of national pride is all."
Not at all,I've been around the world to support both England men and England ladies rugby through good times and bad over the years,and am hugely proud to be a fan.I just think football is boring to watch.The last time I watched England play they were dull,unimaginative,predictable,stale and devoid of any form of flair.Then full of excuses afterwards as to why they were so crap  |

Do you think that was influenced at least by society's view of footballers? Overpaid, spoilt, immature etc |

No not at all. Love watching or listening to the games.

Not influenced by anything other than what I see when I watch.Occasionally there will be an absolute belter of a match that is great to watch,but they are so few and far between.Football when played well can be a joy to watch,but it's rarely played well enough to interest me |

"And don't true football supporters show their support through thick and thin?"
There's thin and then there's thin! Lol. I think the problem comes when u can see they don't try, people don't feel they are representative of them and struggle to see them on their level |

Iv never once thought they never tried today. Not once. I boxed at a very high level and refuse to believe sportsmen at that level dont 'try'  |

"I just think football is boring to watch in general really"
+1 to that club. Had too many years of it "rammed down my throat" by my step dad and step bro.
If there was a match on any TV channel they'd find it and watch it. I mean even second division Italian football as "well they might go up next year, and in two years they could be playing British teams in the European Cup"  |

A radical solution for the FA.
Stop picking Premier League players for the national squad. Choose players from the Championship and below, who will consider it an honour and privilege to play for England rather than those who see it as a chore. |

They probably do but I've been to matches where it does make you wonder if they are. |

I agree there are some too big egos at times and some pride might make a difference |

Just looked at England's qualifier group,hardly a group of world-class teams to emerge from is it?If it's an achievement worth getting excited about that England have come through from a group of second-rate sides then that says it all really... |
