Gone full circle with that one, David James 1998 v Ronaldinho and whatshisface from 2010 show us that.

No youtube links as I imagine old Sepp has got that one stitched up.

I'm pretty sure that's a load of bollox. even if it's tartan, kilts, haggis, being alkies etc etc, we're still identifiable.

What specifically is it that makes English stand out? You know if New York was to hold an English day similar to its Scotland and Irish day, what would they show, what would be theme of England day?

Could we please have a more modern take on that, and have a fit bod, possibly with the kilt up. :sneaky::cool:

We would all sit around, get pissed and laugh at the Scots, obviously.

Bowler Hats, BBC, Winston Churchill, pretty much most things associated with Great Britain are commonly referred to as English or England by foreigners (either correctly or mistakenly), sense of humour, comedy, invention of most modern day sports, rich history, royal family

just to name a few
