How come in the 90s, 80s, 70s, 60s etc, football was just as popular in England but people never had England?

flags all over them, their cars, their houses, or 10 Downing St, during World Cups. Were they a bit more sensible and cooler about things?

Society generally gets more informal and causal as time passes.
In this instance more commercial organizations are getting into the spirit of the thing and giving out free flags, hats etc.
My local Asda (full size supermarket) is full of World Cup promotion
Different world. Yes people were cooler…the old meaning of cool which was laid back, not cool as in that fa.g, Beckham
Because there was more violence than flags back then. I don’t even like football but I do watch documentaries alot and I like history ones at that. So Basically, they would have riots and beat each other, and stands were set elite, and were collapsing,(Worsed violence for football was the 80′s, before that was not to bad at all, just back then it was the class of people who played and watched because the higher class school promoted rugby most and the lower class promoted football most, i think.) and it wasn’t noticed yet just how much money could actually be made out of promoting the world cup and other football tournaments. So no… it was probably just as bad back then as it is now. Only now it’s a wider population who are into it now than 30 year’s ago.
You ask me Rugby is better, no violence, no over reaction, just real men who dont care about the blood dripping down their faces and dont start squealing to the ref and actualy the saying goes "Football is a gentlemens game played by thugs, Rugby is a thugs game played by gentlemen"
XP
But hope the first half helped XP Lol
I don’t think sports were as popular back then, intellect was more important
What they were was not controlled so much by populist media and brainwashing. There was also respect for education, individualism and something only the over 50′s will recognise… ‘quiet pride’.
I was there in 1966. It was a proud moment to be sure, but it was not greeted by people making animal noises, getting so drunk they forgot they were human, or a rabid media squeezing every drop of fake emotion out of people.
1984 was a much more prophetic novel than people give it credit for.
