Seems like no more than 16 years ago

Remember Keegan resigned after losing to Germany and everyone thought England were not going to qualify. Sven turned England into a quality team and even Hesky was brilliant that night.

Steven Gerrard starting the comeback!

Do people still celebrate, display the flag in more smaller rural type areas? In London you'd probably get duffed up if you sported the flag, certainly be deemed an evil racist.

I live in rural Somerset now, and lots of people fly the Cross of St George all year round. There is no underlying politics to it as far as I can tell - ie they are not racist or stupid or anything.

Anyway, as a proud Welshman, happy St George's Day to my English brethren on here

I walked past my local yesterday and it was fucking covered in flags, everyone was dressed up in silly hats with oversized flags draped around them and they were all fucking leathered.

It was nice to see

You will not find too many in Cornwall, after all many do not consider Cornwall to be part of England at all (and they have history on their side if you look into it) but all over Devon and Somerset like X has said, it's not uncommon. I have seen it in and around London too, and if people think that makes you an evil racist, then that's their problem. My mate Chaz who is a local Sikh Councillor usually borrows a horse and rides around with it and himself dressed in the England flag
