Is it OK if I laugh at the expense of those who doubted England's rugby team?

Question

A lot of my friends said there was no way England would beat Australia yesterday. When I posted questions on this site asking whether England were due a good win, some people sneered and gave siacastic answers. Is OK if I laugh hard and out loud at the irony of those who said that hellwould freeze over before Eng beat the Ozys? Is it ok if I feel justified in being angry at the negative comments a lot of people gave about Eng? Is it ok if I stick my tongue out and blow a massive raspberry at all those people?

Answer 1

Depends....

you can laugh at them if you want but it will make you just as bad as they are.

Nobody likes someone who gloats. There are poor winners and there are poor losers. You are lucky enough to be a winner so why would you go and ruin that by being a poor winner?

The fact that you have even posted this question means that it is too late.....you have just lowered yourself to their standards.

I was confident of an AB victory but I didn't talk it up in case.... well it happened didn't it.

Well done to the French. As hard as it is for me to say, you out-played us and out-smarted us. No amount of complaining and excuses is ever going to change the result. So I have to accept what happened. Good work France you deserve it.

Well done England as well. I haven't actually seen the game but I am sure you totally out-played them and are deserving of your victory.

Now stop bickering.

Answer 2

yeah go ahead give em a slap

Answer 3

Dont count your chickens before they hatch

England toured NZ with the best prepared team in history and got a right d**k*ng. NZ Was beaten by France in WC so what chance has England Got, U might have beaten Ozy but ther is still the South Africans

Hey mate you can blow all U like but untill U win the Final It Dont Count

Answer 4

Yes you can do that. England played very well that game. I can't believe there is a semifinal England - France. I think that people who bet on a result like that would win 100:1.

Anyway, Springboks are having a better chance now.

Answer 5

Well it was a brilliant win, though i wouldn't gloat too soon, we have a way to go yet, but what a day, i didn't feel they could win, as all the pundits said we didn't have a chance, then this happens, great, my throat hurts from the shouting, bring it on....

Answer 6

OK, laugh at me I doubted our ability (quietly in my head) but I will happily laugh with you.

Answer 7

Yes! Yes! Yes! Yes!

Answer 8

The only people saying they were going to beat England were the arrogant Aussies,as Te Kiri put it,we have no world class players outside Robinson,so as you can imagine beating Australia is more important than getting into the final. Well up yours Wallaby's,and next time bring a team that is fit and able to step up a level when needed, so yes it is OK to laugh.
