The English media are scum tbh (imo) - but the fans outfits are meant to be humerous not controversial. They try to find something quintessentially English (in their opinion), like the St George/Crusader...which could be taken badly if we played an Arab nation.
I am still enjoying the WC, and although not completely writing off the Germans, the Dutch, Argies, Brazil and Spanish (who have to get past tough Portugal today) are another level when it comes to on the ball skills. Some great games coming up, after some dire group games, this is when the WC comes to life.
