Why is it the english are only capable of being patriotic when it involves sport? How many st georges flags do you see when there isnt a football tournament on

The English don't have a lot to be patriotic about, on the other hand the Scottish,Welsh.and the Irish do!
St Georges flag has now become a symbol of the BNP (political fascist group ) and lots of England football fans are very sympathetic to this group of racists .

Because football is over hyped and the chinese know a good marketing opportunity when they see one.
They must be making a fortune from all the flags and other detritus with the cross of St. George on.

They could be ok but if there team loosing inside the field the English holigan can do anything.

It is because it is the only time we can fly our flags (except for royal occassions) without being branded racist.
