hi, being an englishman and exploring the world of 'soccer' via these webistes im very intrigued to see that there are actually people out west who like this sport and dont just think it is for small children and girls.you guys show alot of interest for the beautiful game and i respect you all. looking at a few posts below; i personally do think Beckham will come to the US and play for someone. this is because he is getting on now, although still quality, he can make Millions out there in America and by that time his wifes career would hope fully be over and relying mainly on him. But he will come back to england and play for a team Probably the gunners becuase he suits there style. secondly the British team would never happen, well for many reasons. first off football over here is very, well lets say emotional and england vs wales or vs scotland matches always turn into slagging matches. we are not really keen on each other when were playing against each other and, this often continues over to the arguement of letting scotland teams play in the premiership etc etc. it will not happen sorry to burst ya bubble. but a 1 off match like vs an us allstars match for commercial reasons could and probably will happen in the near future. hope i opened your eyes a little better to our football, sorry soccer :P any quations email at hopesy15@hotmail.com i will tell you anyhting about our game and leagues. cheers.

Well, welcome to Big Soccer borads then. I am a Yankee-doodle-dandee who happens to love English football and support the national team. What would you say is the biggest England rivalry in the UK? England vs. Scotland, Wales, Ireland, or N. Ireland?? Can't wait for the Premiership to start again - cheers and enjoy the Guinness....

How does that work then....? lol. :confused:
Its England v Scotland. Traditionally.
Norn Ireland and Wales are worthy foes, Rep of Ireland, I couldn't give a toss. Bunch of second rate Englishmen play for them anyway.

You guys cared enough to help us start the Landsdowne Road rennovation early. You certainly liked "tossing' our seats around that night as well.
