How could a true football fanatic hate England, the country that gave birth to the sport? As an American that follows football that seems ridiculous to me! Whether or not one likes the England national team, there is always room for respect for the famous Three Lions.

ok firstly spain what a idiotic comment

secondly monkeynuts – works the other way to i personaly dont hate america i mean i thought we were supposed to be allies? And the fact you think england shouldnt be taken seriously is comical. Many english actually see americans as brethren, thankfully not all are like you.

finaly (lol) a post about the article i agree its bs of course there will be some this could be due to they see english team as a rivalry (sport without rivalry is..?) and yes people like monkeynuts who for one reason or another hate england you’ll always have mixed response not just from the US but from many countries as several people have pointed out there are even some brits who dislike the english national team. I dont agree with the criticism of the american leagues as theyre still developing really but also you’ll never win in a argument criticising english leagues which are the best in the world.

So america hates most of Europe for the sole reason that we dislike you… There are reasons why we dislike you!!! We dont just do it for kicks, its america all over “fight fire with fire!” try and be more diplomatic and things might change. You cant demand love and respect you have to earn it by not being close minded, fear mongering and power hungry. Learn to be humble and a little more reserved and people might start taking your country seriously.

sure we might say “oh those yanks again” or they might say “those stupid brits”. but at the end of the day we are figting alliance like we have for years. I think some americans hate the fact that we once were the most powerful empire history has seen, and we dont like that the yanks have a huge country were everything happens, but deep down we are like brothers

I’m from and live in England.
For some reason most english seem to think that Americans hate us.
I think america is awesome.
Also i’m not a fan at football ( or soccer whatever your talking about right now) but I mst say England is rubbish at sports.
We are ALWAYS loosing!

ok Lets be straight here… most Americans don’t even watch the rest of the worlds football so no we don’t root against England. I mean why would we? I love England but the rest of the worlds football fans… umm… you can lump it! Why don’t you guys learn how to tailgate party instead of beating each other senseless after the games? Football has seemed to become an excuse for rival fans to cause chaos. I got an idea let the fans go into a ring and call it American wrestling! LOL

You cannot judge what some people say about another country! Most Americans I know love England and most English people I know love America so I wish everyone would shut they’re trap about this.

The truth of the matter is this: SOME English people think that all Americans are fat McDonald’s downing lazy fatties, and SOME American people think that all English people are posh tea-drinking snotty gay people.

This all is wrong and NEEDS to stop.

I’m an American and I do hate England and the rest of Europe, but only in response to the much more intense hatred that Europe has for the US and “yanks”. Most Americans seem to like England despite the fact that the English constantly mock and insult Americans. If I didn’t read the English and European press I wouldn’t care; however since I do I am always glad to see England fail! I think if more Americans traveled to Europe and England and read the foreign press they would feel the same way I do; the anti-Americanism in England and Europe is out of control and only a self-hating person could support them.
