    I'm sure that probably made sense in your head when you thought of it, but you might want to go away and have a little think about why it's a silly thing to say, p.

    If one doesn't support any team, there is nothing to stop you being pleased by both Germany's exit and England's exit. It's not an either/or.

    The last time Germany went out at the group stage Hitler was in charge (not of the football team). I bet he wasnt happy.

    It does kind of take the shine of that result in Escape to Victory. Clearly that wasnt a great Germany team and the allies couldn't even beat them with Pele in the side.....

    No Arsenal players in the Escape to Victory team, of course. And they had Ossie Ardiles. For these reasons, I was supporting the Germans.

    I don't want to go away and think aboiut it.. i am glad Germany are out as I am supporting England and it gives us a better chance of winning it..... unlike some on here who are ABE in this world cup, which i find frankly rather strange

    I'm not really sure why you find the concept of someone not supporting the same team you do quite so strange, tbh. Opposition fans at football matches must be a constant source of bemusement and upset for you.

    **spoiler** It was the Kevin O'Callaghan arm-breaking scene that did it for me. Not only did they put the poor lad in goal when he was a winger but then decided to smash his arm so the Yank could play. Dodgy management. Arsene* out!



    *tbf he was more likely to be managing the Germans
