Fixed.
Either way really. The way I read the OP, he wasn't asking anyone to care. He was just talking about how England (who sucked quite bad this season) pulled off a decent performance in their last game, although it was against a fairly minor team (as you guys all happily agree).
Jumping in and spamming "like we care" posts is just asking for a flamefest. ------

But we really don't care. I guess some people can't handle the truth.
I know you don't. You keep saying it. I believe you. Why wouldn't I believe you?
Why post about it, if you don't care? The OP wasn't saying "Hey, America sucks, we beat you at a sport!". The OP was just talking about a football match, in the way that all football matches tend to get talked about, and which presumably does matter to some people somewhere.
Why get involved if you don't care?
Well, OK, now it's just a generic "my sport's better than yours" flamefest and there's every reason to get involved. Its why I'm posting, after all. But it needn't have gone that way, as far as the actual OP is concerned. ------

Originally by: Kirjava This may shock people as I am a Brit but...
I apparently give a damn as much as the Americans in this, we all know how **** they are in football more so than the home nations, who are also quite ****.
I still stand by my hope for a British National football team to replace the home nations. It fractures us somewhat internaly with the football rivalry, Scotland and England I'm looking at you two. Pipe dream - I acknowlege, but I think if we did it we would see a hell of a lot more public unity in the nation if we merge the leauges 
I had high hopes we might see a "Team GB" squad playing in the Olympics, seeing as we compete as Great Britain in all the other games at the Olympics, and not as the home nations. But apparently the Scottish and Welsh national teams would boycott any such thing, meaning "Team GB" is basically likely to be the England squad..
I mean its not like it would have been abandoning the home nations teams in serious competition, it just would have been a bit of fun for the Olympics. But nationalists will be nationalists... ------

Originally by: annoing
We also dont have a British Football Team in the Olympics for far more complicated reasons I might add 
Could you explain it? Because I genuinely don't understand that one. Bearing in mind we play as Great Britain in every other event, it seems stubborn to hold out on the football. The hockey and basketball teams don't make a fuss about it, afterall..
I've always put it down to football nationalism- the worst kind of nationalism... ------
