For a long time watching England was a chore for many. Uninteresting football, disappointing results and a team of players seemingly unable to gel. Let\u2019s be honest here, Bristol City hasn\u2019t always been that different. When you think of the size of our City, have Bristol City unachieved in a manner similar to England?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At least my club has won more trophies, I don\u2019t see Harry Kane lifting the JPT anytime soon. City fans really shouldn\u2019t take for granted the fact we\u2019ve won some silverware, let\u2019s never forget the league and cup double in 2014\/15. Do people realise what a rare achievement that is for a club, let alone one outside of the Premier League?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">England.<br><br>Followed them home and away since I was 14.

Constantly demolishing teams, knowing you were going to win. Wondering how many you\u2019ll score today, which players will get on the scoresheet. Watching City lift those trophies was magical, a feeling worth savouring forever.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I saw thousands of Bristolians line the street to celebrate the campaign. All packing into Lloyd\u2019s Amphitheatre to hang on each word from the players and manager. We were in love with that team.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">England Obsession was Inevitable<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>I\u2019ve always been in love with the England team too, it was tough not to be at my age. The \u201cgolden generation\u201d was the stuff of folklore in the school playground. Volley a water bottle? \u201cGerrard!\u201d, go in for a crunching tackle? \u201cScholes!\u201d, sport a new hair cut? \u201cIt\u2019s a Beckham!\u201d Even I had the mohawk at one point, not a good look\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Followed both home and away for a number of years and it\u2019s a difficult comparison. Until you\u2019ve done England at a major tournament you\u2019ll never fully get it which is why it\u2019s England for me. But it\u2019s a different type of support. City is out of loyalty and love, England is pride\ud83c\udff4\udb40\udc67\udb40\udc62\udb40\udc65\udb40\udc6e\udb40\udc67\udb40\udc7f<\/p>&mdash; Alex White (@WhiteyAlex7) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/WhiteyAlex7\/status\/1436086724476743690?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">September 9, 2021<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>I was fortunate enough to go to the 2010 World Cup in South Africa and see some of those legends. Despite the woeful performances on the pitch, it instilled a passion for the national side. I was even fortunate enough to represent the England fan\u2019s team. We toured the country playing friendly matches. I ended up top scorer, with two goals\u2026 We played against some local teams, one being a side of reformed drug abusers, managed by Martin Allen, and another a team of inmates in a maximum security prison. I\u2019m not even joking. I was playing alongside Millwall fans, Swindon fans and a Rovers fan. The Gashead even set me up for one of my goals!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Does Going to the Games Make All the Difference?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you follow a team in the flesh, it\u2019s almost inevitable you\u2019ll become invested in their success. Many of the responses to my question on Twitter are from people who watch City every week but have never watched England. Only natural that they\u2019ll pick the former then. For those who travel with England it seems they have as much passion for it, if not more than for City.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s not that surprising that a trip across the world to watch your country play does wonders for your passion. Not everyone is as fortunate, not everyone can afford it. For many, watching England on TV is as close as they will get to the action. For a long time that was more than enough disappointment. Imagine travelling across the world to see some of those tournament performances in the last 25 years\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">In recent years (last 3 or so) have to say England have given me more joy than city.

I agree with Micky&#8217;s tweet above: the EURO 2021 campaign would rival any Bristol City season I\u2019ve experienced, despite it all being watched on TV. The nervousness of that Germany game is unparalleled, the emotions ran higher than any Bristol City game I\u2019ve been to.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s clear that the majority of <a href=\"https:\/\/play.acast.com\/s\/osib\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">OSIB podcast<\/a> listeners would choose club over country in a heartbeat. For me, right now I\u2019m more in love with this England team than the Bristol City squad. Gone are the egos of the past, gone is the pressure, here is a national team that couldn\u2019t be more united.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\nhttps:\/\/twitter.com\/tansley_jordan\/status\/1436202850447724549?s=20\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>I love Bristol City, but right now I have to admit that my love for the team isn\u2019t at that same level as it is with England. On the other hand, I can only see that love growing whilst Pearson is in charge. The team will definitely get easier to fall in love with again. Right now though, if there\u2019s one team bringing me more joy then that\u2019s England.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It\u2019s a tough one isn\u2019t it, the club vs country debate.
