I love England and being English but the flags just remind me of Union Jack shorts on holiday......

In her infinite wisdom, my mum bought me a flag for the back of my bike...

I may put it on and take a picture for a giggle....

National pride - go for it - too much suppression of individual views is stiffling this nation.

That's the problem with this country, we're too busy trying not to upset the minority, except the minority aren't quite the minority these days. Funny how such a small Island with the biggest history around the world has to feel ashamed of flying the flag. Maybe we should bend over and let the rest of the world bleed us dry! Oh no we're already doing that, ah sod then lets watch football while the government let peedo's and murders roam the streets without a BRITISH PASSPORT!!!!!!!!

Steady on old chap, or the Message Board Nazis will be along shortly to censor your offensive viewpoint!

I'd imagine that exactly the same thing is happening in each of the countries that are playing in this years world cup. What's wrong with a little pride in your country. Personally I think it's great, and i'm from Northern Ireland, so I've no reason to support england, I think it adds to a general carnival atmosphere.
