Never understand how Middlesborough fans crave a Spanish team beating an English Premier League Team? Like English blokes wearing an Argentina shirt - just don’t get it! Why would you want a foreign club to beat an English club? Conclusion must be simple jealousy? I am happy supporting the Boro - my home town team and always wanting England and English club sides to do well.
Aye .. I have always liked the English teams to progress, generally .. though we all always tend to have certain clubs we just do not like for various reasons, but aye I have never understood it when people go full-on in wishing them to fk up in games like this
Most teams I 'hate'
don't play this level of football anyway
Most recently I have had what I thought was an irrational disliking of Steve Cooper and his teams, don't suppose I am alone there haha. ... though deep down I know it is just simple envy, jealousy, so shame on me - they've been better than us, while we had been competing to go up amongst the top of the pack and we were ahead of Cooper's Forest at one stage until the Wilder honeymoon period come to a screeching halt
.. Cooper has also brought on a player I wish we could have kept who rivals Jones for one of the Championships' POTS, but he does not want to be here. Anyway, we get paid handsomely where ever he ends up now, so not it ain't so bad after all.
But back to the subject, I do like to see English teams/players do well and 'our' teams dominate in Europe's highest level of football at the moment .. it attracts the best to England and it can only be good for football here. Helps the National team enormously.
What Klopp and Guardiola have done to this country over the years in terms of influence and making us leaders on the stage is phenomenal .. I know they're buckled with cash, but .. I have never known anything like this
Good luck to the two of them in the final, as long as Madrid doesn't have Benzema firing on all cylinders tomorrow haha
