As a British man, I'm supporting England, i'd support Scotland or Wales or NI as well if they were in it.

And as my usual secondary team didn't make it this year, I'm also rooting for Ghana. They played some of the best football I saw in 2006 world cup, so different to the disgraceful spit of a game that was Portugal Vs Holland.

You might want to re-phrase that last statement (I know some English people still have a bit of a resentment because Portugal has managed to defeat them thrice in the last 10 years on official cups). That game went down as it went because of the Holland players interest of breaking Deco, Simão and Ronaldo's legs. And they actually managed to do it for Ronaldo. In every video you can see the smirk of Van Bommel's face after each violent tackle on Ronaldo.

If you want to blame someone for that game, blame that stupid mentality that they had on 2006. 

I don't mind if portugal beat us fairly but whether or not the Holland players were disgraceful, I remember it being both ways even if one was dirtier then the other, there was diving and dirty play from both sides. It was a bad game, both for football and to watch. I don't see why I should rephrase it.
