Didn't hear any criticism on these boards of the Scotish fans booing our anthem last week? When we played at Hampden Park a few years ago it was deafening. Booing is not right at all but our own anthem is booed more often and loudly than the other way around.
I always remember Brian Moore the rugby union player who said something along the lines of... you never realise how much the English are hated until you travel the world and play in international games.
Anyway last night was absolutely wonderful at the end and that was the best atmosphere at the new Wembley. Quite enjoying the restricted capacity crowds, less queues and least it's the hard core fans, not the tourists who dilute the atmosphere and don't have much passion or interest in England.
Didn't enjoy the game at all, was way too nervous... felt the same in Moscow during the Colombia game at the World Cup. Roll on Saturday!
Great to see Argyle in the main BBC news as well! Green Army!
Well said, it simply isn’t true to suggest that we’re the only fanbase who boo the oppositions national anthem, it doesn’t make it right, but it isn’t an England only problem. Wembley looked incredible from the videos and pictures I’ve seen, very jealous. Home Park was also great and as close as you can be to being there without actually being there.
