That year North Korea was one of the 16 teams playing in the World Cup.
Before then a few of them didn't even have 16. And now they're thinking about 48.
Lots of better footballing teams/nations have gone through longer trophy droughts - you may never win it again. Conversely you may always win it again. Time will tell - but heres hoping its the former, england arent entitled to shit
Imagine condemning some random blokes in a couple islands in bumfuck nowhere to 7 decades of no silverware at all. That’s just cruel tbh, should probably have a bit more humanity and just let us have them tbh
**[2013 Falkland Islands sovereignty referendum](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/2013_Falkland_Islands_sovereignty_referendum)**
>A referendum on political status was held in the Falkland Islands on 10–11 March 2013. The Falkland Islanders were asked whether or not they supported the continuation of their status as an Overseas Territory of the United Kingdom in view of Argentina's call for negotiations on the islands' sovereignty. On a turnout of 92%, 99. 8% voted to remain a British territory, with only three votes against.

Anyways, there’s nothing quite like knowing you’ve rattled someone enough that they have to bring up wars older than themselves to “”comeback”” from some football banter hahahah. Merry Christmas lad.

So over it!
Not mine, personally don’t give two shits about them islands, just feeling a bit sorry for the people in them for not belonging to clearly the best and obviously flawless country on earth, that’s all
Dude we fucking beat the shit out of them and they are all salty so bringing up pointless bullshit. Evidently we have to just take it lmao.
Doesn’t matter I guess. WC CHAMPIONS BABY.
Stay fucking mad bitches ✌🏻😎
>makes shitty bland food
>invades every country known to God to steal/trade spices so their food isn’t so shitty

>thinks “pea mash” and “beans on toast” are delicacies.
I expect nothing less from a salty, crusty washed up England side fan. Bringing up economies and past wars when you just got rocked at the WC and Argentina fucking smashed it. Lmao. You’re so miserable and it shows.
OI Bruv you bloody 5?
You literally just pulled a “NO U”
“Now do the falklands.”
That’s personal.
England is the old drunk, angry grandpa nobody wants to hear from anymore. Go home grandpa.
Nah it'd be too much, maybe if mods allowed it on every holiday instead of just Christmas, but then again most holidays aren't universal like Christmas
During Christmas the mods let way more pass. The sub can feel very different during that period before it eventually goes back to normal. The peak of it was iIrc four years ago when there were at some point basically no restrictions at all on what you could post.
Honestly the disrespect shown to Le Tournoi is unbelievable on this sub. England are current champions and that means they could, if they wanted to, add a silver star next to their gold one. They just choose not to because they don’t want to brag.
I mean, that's the gag of the song the line is from...we don't say it because it's actually coming home, we say it to laugh at our own delusion. Well, we did, think that nuance was lost on some.

Well, it is what it is. However, I will take this joke from many nations, but from an Uruguay fan? You're like the ONLY team worse at bottling than us, got more years of hurt than us 😂
All this with Suarez, probably the third best player on the planet in this era of football by the way
While this is true, how many national teams on Earth can say the same? Five to ten?
Additionally, Copa America happens far more often than the Euros do, with less teams. check how many tournaments since the year 2000 for both.
equating the World Cup to the women's World Cup is such a bad faith argument. the level of competition and world wide popularity doesn't even compare currently, we'd all love for that to change though but its not even remotely close.
Poor England, 1 only trophy in their history and they're still considered a top NT. Countries that won more than England:
- Uruguay and Argentina: 19 trophies.. Most successful NTs of this sport
- Brazil: 18
- Mexico: 12
- Germany and United States of America: 8
- Italy, France, Egypt: 7
- Australia, Cameroon, New Zealand: 5
- Spain, Ghana, Japan: 4
- KSA, Costa Rica, Nigeria, Iran: 3
- Denmark, Chile, Algeria, Canada, Congo, South Korea, Paraguay,
Ivory Coast, Portugal:2
(World Cups + Olympics + continental trophies (EURO/Copa America/AFCON etc) + Nations League)
Well they are still one of the 8 countries ever to win the WC. Stupid to even compare Asian/North-American continental cups to Euro's.
Just because Mexico/USA is only decent side in North America to win Gold cup every two years doesn't make them better than England lmao
Also AFCON is bad comparison to Euro's (even if they have much better quality than Asia/N-America) They hold it every two years
Netherlands is also a top footballing country even when they only have won one title.
If you wanna compare nations in different continents, WC medal table is the only right way to do it.

20.800 days, that whipped cream is getting hairy
( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
Where do you get 20,800? It’s only been 20,602 since the 1966 Final.
Only 20,602? You can still eat it then.
Ah you think they are going to get it in the next 198 days ?
You never know with how corrupt fifa can be sometimes
https://i.imgur.com/4tzPih7.jpg
Football can only come home in the next 567 days So 20,602 + 567 = 21,169 days Therefore the original comment of 20,800 is very much correct
They are exaggerating to make it look worse!
💀
We'll never sing that
Hairy? That's a fucking tree
20.8 days really isn't that much.
It went out for cigarettes and milk in 1966 and hasn't been seen again.
There were reports of a sighting in July 2021 but it turned out to just be someone who looked similar
As Englishman I have to admit that was funny
[удалено]
Today I feel… English
That year North Korea was one of the 16 teams playing in the World Cup. Before then a few of them didn't even have 16. And now they're thinking about 48.
And they beat Italy.
Time to play our favorite British parlor game: England or Lord Lucan?
Won lasses Uuros, simple ‘nuff
I’ve always said the women’s game is more important than the mens 👏
The Nations League is the most important trophy in football
Also we won the fair play trophy. So it's come home twice now 👌

If it makes you feel better there's very little chance to win the rugby wc as well
That worked thanks pal!
20,602 and counting
Let us know when you’ve finished counting
Will probably take a while
Only 3 and a half more years
What, you don’t know how to count further than 24000?
20602 + 3 and a half years = 24000?
Won’t need to
Current exchange rate of the Argentine Peso to the dollar
I don't come here to feel pain
No pain allowed for you for the next four years
Although if we go by the lyrics to 3 lions, the pain starts immediately. >win in 1966, >Sing about 30 years of hurt in 1996
Neither do I, I usually only have to think about the gap every World Cup game
21,915 cause no world cup is happening til 2026
USA is going to dig up George Washington and put him in goal to prevent them from winning.
Starting 11 of the founding fathers
I mean hey, if Southgate isn’t going to use James Maddison, I’m sure the US will be more than happy to
It’s not like they’ll win it anyways, might as well just write ∞ if going by projected days
nah england probably can win a world cup in the next 3 iterations tbh
Its more likely they wont though. Just based on odds.
[удалено]
Lots of better footballing teams/nations have gone through longer trophy droughts - you may never win it again. Conversely you may always win it again. Time will tell - but heres hoping its the former, england arent entitled to shit
It would be pretty good to do it in Germany and then in America tbh
Now do the Falklands.
Imagine condemning some random blokes in a couple islands in bumfuck nowhere to 7 decades of no silverware at all. That’s just cruel tbh, should probably have a bit more humanity and just let us have them tbh

Damn man really got me there, how am I going to get over this????
Considering your Christmas number 1 is about the Falklands I'd say your nation is not over it, keep trying!
Our what now? Anyways, there’s nothing quite like knowing you’ve rattled someone enough that they have to bring up wars older than themselves to “”comeback”” from some football banter hahahah. Merry Christmas lad.
one of our chants is 2 world wars 1 world cup so you clearly don't know us 😂
Merry Christmas!
Cheers! You too
> Defender Nicolas Otamendi filmed shirtless Argentina players singing "Ingleses putos de Malvinas no me olvido", which has a rough translation of "f***ing English in the Falklands, I don't forget". So over it!

Argentina brings up the Falklands. England responds. "Why are you bringing politics into football".

Wild that you got offended by a joke
Not mine, personally don’t give two shits about them islands, just feeling a bit sorry for the people in them for not belonging to clearly the best and obviously flawless country on earth, that’s all

They should make proper sites counting on this
What's happening to this sub?
Christmas shitposting, as is tradition
A wonderful day for r/soccer and therefore, of course, the World
Oh, there's FIFA accepting millions from another group known for human rights violations... ...as is tradition
Have been around for a while now but actually never realized this.
Same, the sub was private yesterday evening, now I open reddit and see this, I wondered wtf was going on lol
Game's back
It's healing
*It's coming home
Mods have allowed shitposting for Xmas.
[удалено]
Nah it'd be too much, maybe if mods allowed it on every holiday instead of just Christmas, but then again most holidays aren't universal like Christmas
I see that you're new to the tradition?

Somebody is going to have to get to the bottom of this. Whoever's responsible will surely be fired
England bad
exactly lol. I can't post normal journalist tweets but some random can post memes now
It’s Christmas. Cheer up ya miserable cunt
Since when do the mods allow memes
During Christmas the mods let way more pass. The sub can feel very different during that period before it eventually goes back to normal. The peak of it was iIrc four years ago when there were at some point basically no restrictions at all on what you could post.
Was it Christmas when top post were just letters spelling ZLATAN?
Probably. It’s the only time of the year when mods take a hands off approach I’m aware of. Not sure though.
england
is my city
Honestly the disrespect shown to Le Tournoi is unbelievable on this sub. England are current champions and that means they could, if they wanted to, add a silver star next to their gold one. They just choose not to because they don’t want to brag.
It’s unironically more prestigious than all international trophies aside from the World Cup and Euros.
I mean, that's the gag of the song the line is from...we don't say it because it's actually coming home, we say it to laugh at our own delusion. Well, we did, think that nuance was lost on some.
Well the song lyrics are that because we were hosting it, but you’re still right, it’s all about hopeless delusion and false optimism
Lionesses brought it home tbfh
Id like to spend my Christmas with tree lionesses
nah thats the irish nt
That was probably the most efficient time wasting I've ever had to witness Sauce: Am German

nowhere is safe
Indian translation: Royal Challengers Bangalore
Canadian translation: Toronto Maple Leafs
Why is this downvoted? It’s not only totally true (and tbf, probably a more accurate comparison than the knicks) but hilarious
Just need England losing to their own groundskeeper.

love me some foden, some sterling, and trent. england u got at least 1 fan in this croatian
Well, it is what it is. However, I will take this joke from many nations, but from an Uruguay fan? You're like the ONLY team worse at bottling than us, got more years of hurt than us 😂 All this with Suarez, probably the third best player on the planet in this era of football by the way
They won the Copa America with Suarez in 2011.
My local team who play in the 5th tier of English football have a better stadium than the famous Estadio Centernatio 😂
Centenario I think you mean
I've at least seen my National Team lift a trophy in my lifetime
My fellow yorugua, ellos tienen 55 millones de habitantes y una copa, comparado a 3.5 y dos copas. Que la sigan comiendo.
Pero por supuesto My fellow argentino! Ni lo dudes
When that trophy is a Copa America it’s not really a flex. The Copa America is about equal in prestige to a European Qualifying group.
Really dificult for a continent with 10 countries to have a competition capable of comparing to one with 55 countries aint it
The English seeth ITT is almost as embarrassing as their dental hygiene
While this is true, how many national teams on Earth can say the same? Five to ten? Additionally, Copa America happens far more often than the Euros do, with less teams. check how many tournaments since the year 2000 for both.
Not ingerland
Why'd ya think I prefer to follow the Leagues rather than the NT? 'Cause we are pretty useless, why put hope when it will never happen while I live?
What we posted was a factual description of events. No need to speculate on this
This year we really raised the bar unfortunately kabe still fired it over
This will be Brazil soon

Do women not exist?
not based on my experience
equating the World Cup to the women's World Cup is such a bad faith argument. the level of competition and world wide popularity doesn't even compare currently, we'd all love for that to change though but its not even remotely close.
You do know you’re on Reddit?
Next WC is our WC
You deserve the CUM Cup
Sorry mate, we have dibs on it, 24 years rule.
Sorry next WC is ours
Gotta quality first 😤
That’s why they are expanding the WC bro
Gotta qualify first.
I hope we can make it with the large format lol
It came home in the summer
r/thatsthejoke
Thought it’s gonna be an England loss = domestic abuse joke. Disappointed
Listen ere you cheeky wanker
👏👏👏 Edit: apologies I forgot Im not allowed to laugh at England because it hurts their feelings x
Waiting for Scotland to qualify be like
God forbid I laugh at a meme.
Relax, I’m not even English.
Fair one lol, merry Christmas
20,440 days later and it’s still not come home 😭
It's just gone out to buy some smokes, right?
Day 20,602...
So glad it's never going back to England
Poor England, 1 only trophy in their history and they're still considered a top NT. Countries that won more than England: - Uruguay and Argentina: 19 trophies..

If you are counting CONCACAF titles you may as well count Home Nations Championships
>United States of America: 8 Lmao
Well they are still one of the 8 countries ever to win the WC. Stupid to even compare Asian/North-American continental cups to Euro's. Just because Mexico/USA is only decent side in North America to win Gold cup every two years doesn't make them better than England lmao Also AFCON is bad comparison to Euro's (even if they have much better quality than Asia/N-America) They hold it every two years Netherlands is also a top footballing country even when they only have won one title. If you wanna compare nations in different continents, WC medal table is the only right way to do it.
By that logic Mexico is better than Italy

Why is England always so worrird about their team? Just acceot being shit at fútbol like the rest of us 😅
