I learned English at young age from watching Robot Wards in English without Dutch subtitles or anything.

I learned English because I'm Scottish. I dropped French in school because I don't need it and I hate it. Hooray for the maximum amount of technical subjects.

I must be the only person in the UK who does not give one <expletive> about football. Frankly, I'd rather it was replaced with three hours of Rickrolling.
I support only two teams, Holland and the team playing against England. I don't watch the football either, I just want Holland to win. Do I count as caring about football?

In all seriousness though, I thought it was good to see us win against Sweden- it's finally broken that old curse. Now all that remains is to put Ukraine to bed, and then we're into the Quarters   :approve:
 
As for Ireland, even with the 4-0 drubbing they recieved to Spain recently, I'm hoping they'll do well against Italy. As farfetched as it may be to actually win, it'd be a nice consolation prize for them.

Ah yes, the Sweden Curse. Previously, we'd never beaten Sweden in actual competition- and now we have   :approve:
 
 
It was also the case that we hadn't beaten them anywhere (Always drew or lost) including friendlies for about 30 years or so. Broke that particular one last year, too   ^^

To be fair we barely won against Sweden.
Also, did he just rustle your nationalist jimmies?  :yaya)
Also Italy is a great team so will probably bury the Irish.

I'm supporting Russia, Germany and Croatia personally.

I learned English at young age from watching Robot Wards in English without Dutch subtitles or anything.
I wasen't able to do it.
Watching Robot wars did made me learn how to speak words like "snow" and "cheese"
Maybe because our channels are avoiding to directly import program from other countries.
Plus, some dosen't have access to cable channels.
Learning English is somewhat like how animals evolve IMO.(animals gets what they need and takes what they don't need on evolution IIRC, so some japs decided not to learn english. but there is English class on school btw)

Still, for so many new changes for our team, a win is a win- hopefully we'll see them hit their stride properly, soon.
MY JIMMIES REMAIN UNRUSTLED
 
Well yes, that's why I mentioned that it'd probably be farfetched to expect Ireland to win, but as long as they put up a good game, and maybe score against them, that'd be OK as well.
As for me, of course I'd be supporting England mostly, but I wouldn't mind supporting Spain, either.
