Will everyone have little England flags on their cars next week?

Question

At the time of the last rugby world cup I seem to remember everyone had flags on their cars. Or am I having a blonde moment?

Answer 1

Not I either Im Scottish! ,but I do find those little england flags you mentioned to have a better use!

Butt wipes,Soft strong and thouroughly absorbant

Answer 2

I hope so - it's good to see folks supporting our team - and we can have all those stories in the paper again about councils banning them on all sorts of dubious grounds; whether they increase petrol consumption and are therefore contributing to global warming etc etc - oh the fun we'll have!

Answer 3

I work for a local authority so would probably be accused of racism and told to remove it if I put one on, despite the fact that I teach English to children who have come to England from other countries, and who ALL want England to win the world cup!

Answer 4

And than throw them away when the next six nations start?

Answer 5

I won't for the following reasons:

1: I don't have a car

2: I'll be supporting South Africa.

Answer 6

Well, everyone except:

The welsh

The Kiwis

The Springboks

The Oz

The Argies

The French

The rest of the world excluding the UK excluding Wales.

They will be supporting either Argentina or South Africa.

Answer 7

no!! its not a blond moment. every one had them last year. its great! to see people supporting their country. be nice if they were sporting Union Jacks though.

Answer 8

Got no car Christina - What is it?  St. Georges day or something? It all passes me by these days poor old wretch that I am!

Love Dot.x.

Answer 9

I will have my English flags out like usual.

Answer 10

Hopefully, it's a harmless way to enjoy the moment and show your support.

Answer 11

I won't have one. I'm Irish.

Answer 12

they probably did-i won't though!  as long as it's all in good spirit then go for it!

Answer 13

I have a union Jack on my number plates to cover the EU one which I despise. Usually I do not show overt patriotism

Answer 14

Here in NZ there has been a plethora of All Blacks flags whcih was great to see  - although most seem to have come down now :( I did suggest to someone I might put an England flag on my car but it was suggested that I would be seen to be 'crowing' rather than showing my suport for my team and might get my window smashed! - pretty sad really!  Maybe i will try and be more discreet about it - red top, blue shoes, whatever....

Answer 15

no i hate rugby/football ,they all get stupid money and nurses and teachers get nothing. rugby/football players should be on £5 an hour and being they only work one and a half hours a week they should get £7.50 a week.but so long as idiots keep throwing money at them (£40 t-shirt,£20 to watch men kick a ball) then they will continue to spend millions on houses and cars.still i suppose some people think its worth working all week so they can afford to watch a man kick a ball around a field.
