Portugal, as per 2004.
Posters whose countries didn’t qualify for Euro 2020, who will you be cheering on this summer?
- Thread starter Buchan
- Start date

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik @Rood and Imran @Annihilate Now! start with the good news by celebrating Manchester United Women's emphatic FA Cup win over Spurs at Wembley and the future of manager Marc Skinner.
Then it's the bad news and the ever worsening form of our Men with losses to Arsenal and Palace.
Finally the main debate - ETH Out now or keep him until the end of the season - if not longer. Are you Team Nik or Team Imran?
I like this answer
This thread isn’t really for me as I’m English but I’ll be supporting any teams with Utd players in past the quarterfinals... Always had a soft spot for Holland as well. Oh and whoever I get in the work sweepstake.
I realised I didn't list the options. Denmark and England. I'm happy to share with the less fortunate.
Italy. Always Italy.
It is broadcasted in many countries outside of Europe, but its main audience is from Europe as it is a european competition.
Also the Euro is nowhere near to be as watched as the UCL globally.

Home team is England, so I hope we win it. When we're not playing or get knocked out, I will usually support The Netherlands although I will also be rooting for Portugal since they have graced us with some special players.
Strap yourself in, we’re going all the way
Have Vatican City qualified?
Same as every tournament that Ireland aren’t in. I’ll support England because of the United players on the team. Right up to the point that they progress far enough for The Sun to start publishing jingoistic xenophobic front pages then it’s whoever they’re playing against. Standard.
EDIT. Wales. Forgot about them. I’ll support Wales. My mum is from Wales.

Mostly depends on qualifiers, some teams can be underdog and won me some early betting and become my favorite.
And anyone but England, can't stand their gloating every tournament. Wanted the kids to do well but whenever England plays just can't help it.

England. I started to support United because they happened to be an English team vs Germans back in 1999. Before that match I sympathized to Liverpool because my then favorite Owen played for them.
I always back England in these tournaments.
Except when Iceland played them in the Euro's 2016

Scotland.
I wouldn't ever pick an alternative team to support from the outset like that.
I'll just enjoy the games and want the team that plays the better football to win each game.
Although I'll probably settle on France.

I hope Portugal do well.
Sometimes I think, you know what? Maybe I would like to see England win a tournament. Then I listen to their fans and I quickly understand why that should never happen ever again
Whoever the underdogs are.
This charge has been levelled at England fans for as long as I can remember, but are we really any more confident in our team than other nations that can call upon really good players?
of course Not as big as UCL audience, especially UCL final, but the Euros is very popular globally and it has a global audience, you don't get to see Spain, Germany , France, Netherlands, England and other top European NTs go head to head competitively so often, so when Euros cup is near, it's highly anticipated globally
I'm a Bulgarian born in the Czech Republic, so will be Czech Republic first, then Croatia and the Netherlands as I've always liked them.
I'm English but, TBH, I'm only really emotionally invested in them when there's a core group of United players in the team. If it's a group of key players from the likes of Liverpool, City, Tottenham, Chelsea - who I spend 9 months every season disliking due to their exploits for rival clubs - then I find it hard to suddenly get behind them in the summer.
The last few tournaments have been that way (mostly built around gits from Spurs and Liverpool), and so I was perfectly happy to see Ronaldo lead Portugal to success at Euro 2016 and the Nations League instead. And certainly would be happy enough for that to happen again with Fernandes alongside him.

Have followed Serbia and other former Yugo countries a number of times throughout the years so will be odd to follow Macedonia in one - still can't beleive they finally made it. Anyway as soon as they do get kicked out will jump on Portugal's bandwagon to cheer our Bruno on.
Not always the over confidence, but also sometimes just the shitheadness
Good stuff
I hope a United player wins it if not my country Sweden with Lindelöf anyway.
I am happy for Bruno if Portugal go all the way again.
England of course got many United players.
France would be boring, but nice for Pogba.
Holland I would like see Donny play and do well, but doubt he starts.
I think it is probably to hope for England a bit, but I can't lie I also like when England get spanked and Pool or City players suck.
I think English games will be fun to watch for me whatever happens like in most tournaments.

Good answer
Whoever plays the best football. Would also be nice to see Netherlands win but not if they play crap.
Also I hope someone beats Germany 8-1

England until they sing "football is coming home" prematurely.
I usually enjoy to see England to fail in a tournament, but not this time.
England, Belgium, Portugal (basically all but France, Spain, and Germany).

We will make Semi and go out because Gareth is too predictable and cautious, nullifying any attacking threat we have.
Winner will be France if Kante stays fit.
I'll be cheering on Sverige this year. Class bunch of lads.
One win against the big boys and it's like clockwork
Who are England playing first?
Macedonia. Oh wait
Unfortunately Serbia lets you down most of the times
I'm really glad for Macedonia too, if they could go through the group somehow it'd be amazing. But yeah, I'll probably be Portugal fan as well as soon as Macedonia goes out. Croatia could do well too though it seems they're not as good as 3 years ago on World Cup.I was born in Holland so I always support them if/when Ireland don't qualify.
Do you talk like Steve McClaren
typical.
give it 10 years and we will have 64 teams playing at the Euros - and probably invite Australia too.
too many teams makes qualifying a farce for most teams.
