Regrettably not, Steve. It was just a whim of the thinking engine as I downed my Earl Grey this morning. When it happens, mine's a pint of the best ale available!
In all seriousness, it warms my heart to see so many flags out for a national event such as this and even though I am not a football fan myself I'll be happily going with the flow for however long it lasts.
Any miserable killjoys that see a downside to waving your country's flag should be made to eat cold tripe.
