this game for me is one of the great rivalries (like germany v italy or holland too). its so sweet to send one of your great rivals home early and play on and the adrenaline is rising. what a lot of english dont get is, that we are not obsessed with the war and all that. the rivalry exists because of 1966, there it started, continued in 1970 and went on and on (1980, 1982, 1990, 1996 etc) also the last game/goal at old wembley, first team to beat england at new wembley etc.
IF we would live in history (like e.g. many SUN readers) we would have an even bigger rivalry with Russia and the USA (which we havent)
in icehockey we dont have a rivalry with the UK, there it is Austria, Czech Rep and the Swiss we look to defeat. and for british icehockey fans its mostly holland, france and poland I believe...
said it years ago, for many people football is a substitute for war, listen to the songs when england plays germany or argentina.
I scratch my head when fellow welsh fans sing those stupid songs and act like drunken english football fans
we had a few doing those songs when we got stuffed over in germany , but thankfully only a few
how comes that when Germany plays Scotland, Scots and Germans sing/drink together? been to Wales v Germany games and there were no bitter feelings...

Denzil, for the 50th time.
My first football matches with my Grandfather from Bury(Mothers side) were 7 matches watching Bury Town and 3 England games, then in 1972/73 Season after my school in Marshfield gave me kids tickets, I went along with my Grandfather while he was visiting us, and from there he moved down here and we became season ticket holders, they were his teams.
If WALES play England then I AM 100% for WALES
BUT I WILL ALWAYS SUPPORT EVERY BRITISH NATION v THE WORLD Except EGYPT of Course
