Worst things about England reaching the final 11:29 - Jul 14 with 3762 views | Reus30 | All these 'celebrities' and snakey politicians sending their good luck video schtick, talking about bs memories when they know nothing about football. No, eff the eff off. Football is for Joe public, it's for Derek who works in the butchers and Stan the postman. It's for the people that make sacrifices to travel to games and for fans watching at home or the pubs, bathing in hope. For the oldies who have suffered all the pain and for the young people to dream. Hangers on and fake little turds can get in the bin. |  | | |  |
Worst things about England reaching the final on 11:48 - Jul 14 with 2655 views | bsw72 | Not just celebrities but people who know nothing about the game and want to talk about it. I love the fact that people get excited and the country gets behind the team but don’t fcking pretend to know about it based upon what you have read in the sun, daily Mail or bbc website. |  | |  |
Worst things about England reaching the final on 12:00 - Jul 14 with 2603 views | Buhrer | England in a final and thats your take today? Has a celebrity stolen your spot on the sofa? Maybe you normally cant even muster basic civil geniality? Who are you to dictate what anyone else can enjoy in life? Grow up. |  | |  |
Worst things about England reaching the final on 12:01 - Jul 14 with 2595 views | Benters | I think Derek who works in the butchers will have to make some extra sausages to afford the premier league tickets. Of course Derek might not have any points so I am probably talking BS. As for the celebs jumping on the bandwagon well that’s just what they do. |  |

Agreed. Maybe he's talking about Americans and their love of Soccer. |  |

Stan the postman has no problem though, he just looks for the FA crest on the back of his local celebrity's mail and apologies for the poor state of the envelope when he makes the delivery... |  |

Yes, you're correct, my whole day is ruined and I won't be able to enjoy the final. I am referring to the desperate need for news coverage of celebrity well wishers and butt lickers squeezing out some more relevancy time. It ain't about them today, it's about the football and more importantly, the fans. I would happily shut my face (fingers) if I am wrong but there is no way on this earth that people like Jess Glynne, Lenny Henry, Sam smith FFS, George Russell and frigging Kylie give a monkeys about football at any other point in time. So why should we have coverage or articles about them wishing well to the England lads so they can have their five minutes again. Show me school children predicting Spain will win or the brickies apologising to Southgate. Don't show me guff. Bore off. Also Prince William is one of us and I am a royalist so him going ape at the Swiss game made my day. [Post edited 14 Jul 2024 12:12]

Sunak hasn’t posted anything about the football since the election campaign came to an end… |  |

Lenny Henry is a lifelong West Brom supporter, not really a team that a glory hunter chooses: https://www.wba.co.uk/fans/albion-family/famous-fans I'm sure he used to wear a Baggies scarf when he played one of the characters in Tiswas. [Post edited 14 Jul 2024 15:38]

Just as soon as I can get Jess Glynne organised to bring them round to you. Oh, hang on, she's busy: 'Glynne has been in a relationship with sports broadcaster and former England women's footballer Alex Scott since the summer of 2023.' https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jess_Glynne |  |

Jess Glynne's partner is 140-cap England international Alex Scott. Shall we do these one at a time? |  | |  |

The thing with when England do well is it brings people together who don’t usually like football, which is a good thing most of the time. |  |

It also doesn't mean you don't. Gatekeeping the sport of football is a bit of a weird look mate, to be honest. |  | |  |

You're right, I am gatekeeping the sport. The sole defender so that it is football purists only. My point is that, I want to enjoy today (and I will). I'll watch some build up and I am simply pointing out that it's a load of hanger on bs. I know it happens, I'm not straight out of the womb, but I don't want it. I don't want to see it, it's not news. It's just bs. I guess if I am gatekeeping football, maybe they are the gatekeepers of wealth. |  | |  |

Sam Smith is a Fulham fan and has regularly posted about the club and attending games for years. So there’s another - I’m ignoring the OPs “FFS” next to their name, as that would be a whole other thread on interpreting the meaning. |  | |  |
