Would you prefer your country won a World Cup or Spurs won the league?
I think it's an interesting question.
Spurs cos there's literally 0% chance Australia will win the World Cup.

I think that's exactly the point... and one that you only truly know the answer to, when you experience watching both.Noone said it was mutually exclusive. But the whole point of the thread is "would you prefer...?"
I'm basing my response on England naturally through my own situation and experiences.
Same here waste of a weekend! But hey strict..........erm tv is okay on a Saturday nightFucking hate international football,pisses me off when we haven't got a game on the weekend
Never thought of it like that, but you're completely spot onI think that's exactly the point... and one that you only truly know the answer to, when you experience watching both.
I've eaten a full roast dinner before whilst watching an England game at home...
But due to sheer nervous energy (and not wanting to miss a second) I don't think I could bear the idea of actually eating anything during a Spurs game... and therein lies the difference for me!!
I tried to eat a full roast dinner once whilst watching Wales. It was terrible, this guy nudged me and my roasters rolled off the plate onto the terraces then we scored and the crowd surged so I spilt all my gravy down this guys shirt collar ( he was not best pleased, had to give him my yorkshire pudding to calm him down). Finally it went quiet and I managed to eat a slice of beef and a few peas before we scored another and the plate went flying.....never again.Never thought of it like that, but you're completely spot on

Totally understand that, my wife's gravy would easily pass as an offensive weapon.EXACTLY my point!
Thats why security don't let you take a roast dinner into a ground any more!!
and then
passion
Bash your arse.If you'd rather your club win over your country, then gluttony really does have you by the man balls.
Now go and eat your prawn sandwich you prick!
It’s Steve Clark. Heard it on a podcast. Who knew eh? Well, apart from Pat Nevin. He did.I’d rather we win a reserve ladies match than Scotland winning the World Cup. Doubt I could name half a dozen of the Scotland team. And I’ve just realised I don’t know who the manager is. I don’t care enough to google it.
None of that explains this....Noone said it was mutually exclusive. But the whole point of the thread is "would you prefer...?"

Only people who say their country are the people who don't properly support clubs
None of that explains this....
I suppose you mean British people specifically.
Why would they be offended it's Ireland in irish.

I was in West Germany euro 88 and if it wasn't for the linesman and a bounce of a ball Shane warne would of been proud of we would have knocked out Holland and there would have been no Van Basten goal in the final.
