    German fans slagging England

    Stick with it.

    PS Although the "Your enemy is my friend" syndrome applies here, I'm thinking that, if we shared the same language, it would be very easy to dislike the Gernam fans!

    Can't agree to any of that, particularly the last bit of nonsense. With the exception of the one bloke and the Scotland song (and it was funny admit it) there wasn't any bad mouthing the English. They were mostly going on about how happy they were to have won and that they were so worried about the result that they considered not turning up to watch the game.

    If you learn someone's language you can't avoid learning about their culture and them. You'd be surprised how much we have in common if you'd only take the time to learn about them instead of making ill informed presumptions and relying on them to understand you.

    From what little German I can remember having watched that video and not read the rest of the thread I knew that they were talking about how good their team was, and like true Germans they were very very efficient.

    They also aren't still going on and on about their last world cup win in the way England are.

    Great nation, great food, great beer and a great footballing team.

    Having just got back from Hamburg, even having lived in France for 2 years, I can confirm that I have never seen burds like I did in Hamburg.

    Germany is a country that - to the visitor at least - has very much "got it right"
