I am similar but the reverse for parents.
To be fair—and I have said this before, so many will know—my father was a horrible bastard that I have not spoken to going on 15 years now, so I have a fonder feeling toward my Spanish side (always far more accepting and supportive of me) than my English side at times.
And coming from Manchester doesn’t help when it comes to international football, as I never really felt that much of an affinity to the England team, given it was full of cuntish rags when I was young.
But I am genuinely torn for the final, as I wish all of the current and former City lads could triumph so they could get the recognition they deserve, more than anything.
All of that said, I will be wearing my half Spain, half England shirt my missus made me years ago, and will be happy with whatever outcome, as long as it is a good natured match, filled with entertaining football.
I’ll be especially pleased if it is Southgate’s swan song, as well. ;-)
