That is some high bar you have set for them. At some point you have to explain that supporting the Albion for life, it isn't always like that
[Football] Is anyone else really proud of our fans tonight…

No it’s disrespectful borderline xenophobia
That's your view.seems 50/50 on here on whether people actually think the same as you.

Stood side by side with German fans and watched the game. Supported the team magnificently and won with huge grace. Makes me really proud to be English after such a huge result. On to Saturday - come on England!
Ps - have we played anyone ‘good’ yet
England til I die
I have no voice, a very bruised leg and the proudest heart.
WHAT A NIGHT
Booing the opposition's anthem is about the least racist and non-discriminatory thing there is; after all, EVERY nation gets absolute pelters when their anthem is played ahead of a match vs. England.
This makes it a wholly inclusive and entirely non-discriminatory activity
The usual suspects who watch 3 football matches every 2 years in a gazebo in their garden wearing brand new England shirts from JD sports are jamming the 5 Live switchboard to express their utter shame....
(Someone should let them know there's tennis on the other side).

25 years on from the EURO 96 semi vs Germany and Gazza still hasn't found the way out of Wembley...

Never had a bruised leg from booing before
CBA to get into that.
More people clapped the knee than booed the anthem.
It was a fantastic night.
First time we beat them in a proper knock out game in ****ing years, in front of a madhouse of limbs after 18 months without decent crowds and yet a few have nothing more to do than get arsey about a bit of pantomime booing of their national anthem. Sake.

Loved seeing the goal celebrations in the crowd …wouldn’t have been half the fun watching on the box without them

Yes, the band (or at least a slimmed down version of them) were there, a couple of blocks to my left. But they were less intrusive than usual, the atmosphere developed organically. Haven't seen celebrations (or heard a noise) like that at Wembley for a very long time. We were close to the front of the upper tier in the corner where Kane did his Gazza tribute act. Unforgettable night. Just a shame we're not on a plane to Rome right now, which was the original plan.... Oh well, hopefuly we'll get to do it all again next Wednesday.

There are some precious soles amongst Brighton fans. Its woke you know
Yes, liked the use of the netted off seats as a sort of trampoline. Having all-seater stadia instead of terraces really makes no sense does it?

That atmosphere last night was electric from even before kick off which you couldn't have said before any of the other games so far even the Scotland game.
What is turned out on the pitch obviously helps but lets face it, it was pretty dull again last night which the Germans contributed to. However the atmosphere throughout was brilliant and that was because it was full of young men, who'd had a good drink and got the importance of the game. I gave up following England at Wembley a long time ago as it became a day trippers day out, last night it was more like an away game.
As [MENTION=1105]Roadrunner[/MENTION] said, just a shame I'm not spending this morning plotting a way to get to Rome. Lets hope come 10pm Saturday I'm booking Wednesday off work (and then booking Monday off come 10pm Wednesday).
