I especially liked this post: " ...Ich schaue mir den World Cup im BBC an und kann nur sagen 'Hut ab' fuer das Reporterteam (Hanson/Lineker u.a.). Sie reden ohne Vorurteile und machen nie irgendwelche bloeden Bemerkungen ueber Team Germany ..."
He's obviously not seen Ian Wright.
There's an interesting discussion on England's chances - all of them pretty much dismissing our hopes of winning and all commenting on our obsession with the war.
What is truly amazing is the sense of admiration for the English and the quality and lucidity of the posts - this is the German equivalent of the Sun, remember. Is it likely that a Sun reader forum would be equally complimentary about the Germans and contain so many cogent posts? Somehow I doubt it.
