My favourite, although that's got more to do with the NY Landlords :lol:

The punchline of this is in the last two lines Ken. ;)

Scotland ... the only place the world cup is pronounced "Warrold cup". :D

Could be worse, the world cup is when the English start pronouncing England as Hingerlund.

Yeah I figured that but I already know one Scot who supports the Pommie cricket team and that kinda takes the gloss of it.

Yah got me there sport! :lol:

Actually my Dad is a Londoner and unlike most of my countrymen, I will be supporting the sassenachs in this World Cup. I'll also give up a shout or two for the Aussies! :thumbsupsmileyanim:

I'll be supporting England, while Mrs Pugwash, the Glaswegienne, will be pretending to, just to keep me happy. Then, straight after each match, she'll cry down the phone to her brother of how I forced her to cheer on Beckham's boys ...

Ah, World Cups, love 'em. :D

It should be no surprise that it took a Glasgow resident (Kelvin) to discover absolute zero! :lol:

Will be supporting Australia, unsurprisingly! And, yes, anyone playing England. Not into petty nationalism as a rule - perfectly at home with being European, but somehow the English football and rugby teams are always a step too far. When Northern Ireland beat England, I'll be honest, it felt good :D It's a not-so-guilty pleasure....schadenfreude a la Seaman, Beckham, Pearce & Co....

Kelvin- Borne in Northern Ireland, died in Scotland, I think nowadays he'd share your football predilections.
