[QUOTE="Every Time Ref, post: 956934, member: 71826"] So this is another potentially interesting thread that’s been hijacked by “POACHING!!!!” and “EVERYONE HATES ENGLAND!!!!!”, that’s just great. It’s all just thinly-veiled prejudice. And I include the term “thinly-veiled” only out of courtesy, it’s not at all veiled. Coaches move teams all the time, it’s not “stealing” it’s a market place. All of the best players in all sport are “cocky”. Every team or player in the history of sport ever has talked about how they are “better prepared than they have ever been” before every major competition. The only way you can use any of this as a reason to dislike someone is if you have already decided you dislike them. You are prejudiced against the English, just ******* say it out loud rather than this “oh it’s just how people see things” crap, just own it for ****’s sake. I seriously might give this place a miss during the World Cup, it’s going be ******* dull wading through all the usual anti-X-country/ref-blaming/everyone’s-poaching-except-my country b0ll0cks to get to the rugby talk.
