Graham Souness hates England 09:26 - Jun 19 with 8433 viewsonceablue

Why do the Scottish hate us so much

When I was growing up i also supported Scotland cheering them on as my second team

It was only when I started working in Scotland I realised how much they hates us, was in Pub in Glasgow watching England and the hatred was at a different level

One colleague told me they supported ABE ie, anyone but England.

I guess there is a lot of Hatred particular in Glasgow full stop with the whole Rangers Celtic thing.

By the way Souness looked a very ill man apart from his very very very obvious false teeth was Waiting for Wrighty to make a teeth gag!!

Cheering on all the home nations in football is the most Tory opinion imaginable. It’s like hoping the English teams do well in the champions League.

For a 68 year old, he looked in very good nick. If I look half as good as that when I’m that age, I’d be more than happy.

Put his normal teeth back in and he would have looked half dead

He must be working for Paddy Power, trying a bit of subliminal advertising for the horse racing betting.

Very bitter and twisted. He looked decent and in better condition than a lot of people half his age.

Yeah, Scotland is a country that’s full of hate ...

I think I can speak for the vast majority of Scots who don’t hate anyone, let alone English people. But who are never that upset if England and the idea of Englishness (including that strange Anglo-centric version of Britishness) come a cropper.

"never that upset if England...come a cropper. "

That's pretty much my take from every Scot I've ever known. A knowing smirk and a raised glass when England lose rather than full on partying.

The hate that exists is due to historical reasons - but not ALL Scottish people hate us (and a lot of the people voting in the referendum aren't Scottish anyway).

Also, not all people are into football, and its tribalism.

It's not difficult, really.

Trust the process. Trust Phil.

I thought he looked in great shape too. I'd take looking that sharp at 68!

My parents are Scottish, I was born in Canada, and I spent most of my childhood in Ipswich. At the 1970 World Cup, when I was 10, I supported England, and in 1974, when England didn't qualify, I supported Scotland, but I couldn't persuade any of my classmates at Northgate to support them. I felt there was an element of jealousy because England hadn't qualified, so from that moment on I supported only Scotland, and as I grew up I began to further appreciate my Scottish roots.
As regards hatred, I think it is just a typical football thing, much like the Ipswich/Norwich rivalry. The hatred, if that is it, is of the England team, rather than England itself.

I'd opt for "resent" rather than hate tbf.

Same for many other Celts unhappy with Westminster/English focused decision making that seemingly does little for many areas. (I would include the Cornish but guess that's another debate)

I was reading some Ally Mccoist preview article and he was saying that they used to have England vs Scotland training sessions back in his Rangers days. Apparently Souness always used to make up the numbers on the England team, which none of the other jock players could fathom. So maybe he doesn't hate the English? Or maybe hes making up for those past mistakes in Rangers training?

The Scots don't hate us, it's hardly an Israel / Palestine relationship is it?
Though hundreds of years ago maybe it was...? Scholars of history step in in.

When it comes to sport it's part of the accompanying pantomime, especially football.
I thought Souness played his panto role well, and who was happiest at the final whistle? Genuine question because I changed channels immediately, which I always do, but last night with more rage than usual.

I didn't think he looked ill, just different, not just age but his features, however, I would assert he is a handsome man, more so now than when younger.

This is it. What they really hate is the English-centredness of so much of the UK infrastructure/media etc. It was summed up by Johnson's comment "... and any other home nations that may be taking part."

I’ve been to Scotland a few times and they’re ok but the only time I’ve actually felt welcome is in Glasgow Indian restaurants (best curries in Britain). They loathe the English. It’s as simple as that.

Like you, in my yoof I supported all the home nations, but not now - if Scotland played Dictators and Maniacs United, I’d be cheering on Vlad the Impaler and co.

Spoiler alert: Every country hates England. I guess it's a bit like us and Colchester in the fact that England don't really care about Scotland, but us Scots hate the English, as you're our actual local rival. I for one cannot wait to see England knocked out.
