I don't know who can take international soccer seriously with the granny rule, I think it is nonsense, I could have played for USA if I was a pro footballer and I don't even like the United States as a country.

I support Italy, if players are allowed to play for foreign teams then fans should be allowed to support foreign teams. I supported France back in 2000,02, 04 and 06.

Soccer fans in the main riot .  Irish fans are not soccer fans as such . The vast majority are going for a piss up .  The vast majority of the thousands going to France never went to a League of Ireland game.

Event junkies .

Rioting fans = soccer fans in the main
Non-rioting fans = event junkies

I bet the vast majority have been to Old trafford, the Emirites, Anfield, Stamford bridge?

I see your point and I almost agree with it but I guess there's always the odd case where the player playing under the Granny rule has always wanted to play for the relevant country. I'd say it's rare, but it probably applies.

Anyone going over?
Heading via London tomorrow. Back on Tuesday. 3 points and no bombs would be lovely!
