It said on the BBC's coverage that Italy had 'thousands of fans' there tonight. I wonder if they'll have so many there for the final if it's against England? Have the FA given the vast majority of tickets to the England Supporters groups or does it depend on UEFA's allocations? If Italy have the same amount of fans as England (should we make it) we'll lose our 'home game' advantage.

Tough start to our season Leicester away, Tottenham home then Man United!

Just renewed mine and Daughter's season tickets, £880 for both (she's U21) so not too bad in my opinion.

Some normality to look forward to.


I renewed my season ticket for the Holte End a few weeks ago. It cost me £425 as I had vouchers which I used towards the cost. We was offered cash or vouchers as reimbursement for the remaining six home games which fans could not attend because of Covid. I figured if I am given the cash I will only end up spending it in the pub.

My mate had the cash and has just forked out just shy of £600 for his season ticket.

We have Watford away first game and then Newcastle as our first home fixture.

We have you guys at home on the 16th October, which is the nearest thing to some kind of local derby.

Looking forward to full stadiums again, Villa Park is going to be rockin first home game and Newcastle always bring a full quota of away fans.

if England beat Denmark
should we make it)
If England do get through
At least some of you are acknowledging the possibility of getting beaten by Denmark. That's progress! :rolleyes:

Re the BBC and their England bias; as a Scotsman I can appreciate the reasons for that, as the vast majority of the population of the UK is English, or maybe more accurately - lives in England.
It is still mildly annoying though, and I look forward to seeing Lineker, Shearer, Ferdinand and co. when you lot get done over by Denmark tonight, or failing that - by Italy on Sunday :okay:.

I laugh my b******s off after reading posts like yours when I hear people say the Jocks get behind England in the football, what planet do they live on?

I've never seen English fans change their avatar to the opposing team playing Scotland but I've seen it on a couple of forums where you lot do it, I know you came up with some shyte about neighbours but you only did it when they played us.

I doubt we'll beat Italy but I'm expecting us to get to the final this year and whatever happens it's something you lot have never achieved so in the end your still c**p and we're, well, a fair bit better.:okay:

So you should be, having a population about 10 times the size of Scotland! Yeh; we're shyte and we know we are, as the saying goes. We do ok for a wee country though.

As for the UK rivalry - I have never understood why English people would support Scotland. OK, we're both British, but when representing our individual nations we are NOT representing Britain. To me, it is the same as English supporting Germany when they play Brazil/Argentina etc. because Germany are European? It wouldn't happen! Germany don't represent Europe any more than Scotland or England represent the UK when it comes to football or any other sport. Which is why it boils my urine when I see the union flag being flown by supporters of England (and it is ONLY ever the English, none of the other UK nationals would dream of doing that).

If you fly the George Cross your accused of being racist is one reason.
