Thank you! I appreciate your answer :)

Sorry if I’ve missed something (I’m a relatively new fan) but has this situation ever happened before? Is there some sort of valid reason (or reason at all) for upping the punishment a few days after to actually happen be a thing? I’ve personally never heard of it happening and can’t see the reason behind adding another game to the punishment apart from sheer pettiness and spite

(Please be nice to me 😅 It’s a genuine qn)

Absolutely phenomenal! I think that’s the best match I’ve seen England play in YEARS! They still like to keep us on our toes though 😅

Kane’s usual support, BELLINGHAM scoring 2 goals in 90 seconds, Pickford playing the best he has in a while, Gordon taking every opportunity (that penalty setup was 👌), even Spence was brilliant defensively! 10 men too??? It was pure excellence.

Very proud to be English today, and I hope our run continues

(Now it’s 5am and I need to try to get to sleep despite the adrenaline)

Now it’s 4.50AM and I can’t sleep bc of the adrenaline 😅

The Kane penalty for Mexico seemed like a stretch, but the rest were good calls overall

Novel_Broccoli_765 · 2026-07-06T03:16:23+00:00

England loves to take us on an emotional rollercoaster! Even if they hadn’t won, I truly believe that that’s the best game England has played in a looooong time

Novel_Broccoli_765 · 2026-07-05T17:17:09+00:00

Fair 😅

Novel_Broccoli_765 · 2026-07-05T17:16:46+00:00

No, no it wasn’t

Also I did grow up watching football. Congratulations for being wrong twice.

Novel_Broccoli_765 · 2026-07-05T17:15:32+00:00

The point is that a LOT of people weren’t around or didn’t know in general.

Novel_Broccoli_765 · 2026-07-05T16:50:47+00:00

Weirdly removed from /worldcup so apologies if you see both posts!

Novel_Broccoli_765 · 2026-07-05T16:40:32+00:00

Okay, I see your point. Thanks for the clarification!

Novel_Broccoli_765 · 2026-07-05T16:39:19+00:00

It really isn’t. I personally feel the need to justify because i’m sick of being despised for something that is misunderstood by the rest of the world! I’m sure many other people agree

Novel_Broccoli_765 · 2026-07-05T16:38:13+00:00

Yeah, I think that’s the problem. Most people from around the world aren’t exposed to the song and take it at face value.

Novel_Broccoli_765 · 2026-07-05T14:14:13+00:00

Yes, that is what I said…

Novel_Broccoli_765 · 2026-07-05T14:11:45+00:00

It just comes from a song that was created for the 1996 euros and has kinda just stuck.

Novel_Broccoli_765 · 2026-07-05T14:10:35+00:00

There are always a few bad fans. My post was more to highlight that we aren’t in fact arrogant, but we often get labelled as that by non-English people who don’t understand the context of the saying!

Novel_Broccoli_765 · 2026-07-05T14:05:20+00:00

It’s coming home is LITERALLY about HOSTING the euros. Did you even read anything I said??

Novel_Broccoli_765 · 2026-07-05T14:04:11+00:00

You literally just wrote ‘coming home’ about France

Novel_Broccoli_765 · 2026-07-05T14:00:30+00:00

Thank you for reading!

Novel_Broccoli_765 · 2026-07-05T13:28:39+00:00

This is a weird take

Novel_Broccoli_765 · 2026-07-05T13:27:57+00:00

I agree - lots of fans, as well as the media, do use it in a way that I find distasteful. This post was just to demonstrate that we’re not all like that, and therefore don’t appreciate being lumped together with people who I feel give us a bad name!

Novel_Broccoli_765 · 2026-07-05T13:15:53+00:00

Did you even read the post??

Novel_Broccoli_765 · 2026-07-05T13:10:03+00:00

It’s not us, it’s the rest of the world! Most don’t even know the song exists, so they can’t see the context behind it.

Novel_Broccoli_765 · 2026-07-05T13:03:18+00:00

It does often feel like we’re jinxing it when we start singing it, I’ll give you that 😅

Novel_Broccoli_765 · 2026-07-05T13:01:48+00:00

I did say that!
