Modern boxing aswell
They’re welsh. Welsh are swarthy

>aussie rules
Not directly but thank you for cricket
Umm theyre about to win the cricket world cup sweaty xo
When did you invent football?
Why are some of them so dark? Literally thought I saw a Pakistani in Northern Wales once and then he started speaking Welsh
Not at all, limey
yeah, thanks for that
KEK
no.
out of 4 of my favourite sports, you only made one
WE CAN'T KEEP GETTING AWAY WITH IT
this is false.
he showed slalom, not downhill. completely different sports
But did it actually look like baseball, or was it like netball->basketball where the version you play is like the down syndrome cousin of a sport?
>he showed slalom, not downhill.
fucking wew
Setting the rules and inventing the sport is not the same tho
That lad also set the rules for modern slalom. Doesn't change anything about the fact that Norwegians and alpine people have been skiing competitively much longer tho
no no no, my dear friend.
that's not making, that's helping to evolve
you can't claim this and at the same time
Damn I miss Lanzarotte
Don't be pedantic.
Just say thank you.
What are your four favourite sports m8?
Football, plumping, painting and drinking lech
Lad I like Dave ryding and all but you didn't invent the sport. Keep your chav sports to yourself tho
ice hockey, volleyball, tennis, handball
order changes from time to time
Based.
thank you
When did you guys invent basketball? I'm pretty sure that credit goes to Canada.
you're not canadian
ehhh
Was Canada not a dominion at the time?
IIRC Welsh people originate from Iberia
>we
Somebody who you're not related to invented/modified a Norman/Roman sport over a century ago.
Is there anything more pathetic than the proud patriot?
Is a sixth of your country not still British?
It is, what of it?
being muslim
Thank you.
Why am I not posting under a Union Jack so?
The price of freedom, brother
We do. It's just the quality ones that we let you foreigners have a go at.
For me it's bombing Unionists
OH NONONONNONONONO
No, a Canuck invented basketball
But you kinda invented Canada I guess?
based UK
thank you ourselves for being great
Other way around. Iberians originate from Ireland.
Okay, but seriously, how the fuck did we invent so many sports? Some kind of island autism?
Basically a result of inventing guilds and then unions.
England never invented baseball
We’ve beaten England every time we played them in a relevant soccer match
Is this the part where you pretend women's football is relevant?
>dumb bongs don’t even remember 2010 or 1950’s part time school teachers
Sad!
The rules are literally what defines the sport though.
>dumb Americans think they won in 2010
Sad!
You didn't invent Hockey.
...Did you?
who's "we" again?
they're my ancestors as much as yours. probably more so
also, codifying rules for various forms of sport that have existed everywhere always, then spreading them, is not particularly amazing.

>While field hockey in its current form appeared in mid-18th century England, primarily in schools, it was not until the first half of the 19th century that it became firmly established. The first club was created in 1849 at Blackheath in south-east London.
>Bandy has its roots in England in the 19th century, was originally called "hockey on the ice",
it was easy, as evidenced by the fact England were complete shite and still managed to get out of the group undefeated
US team has won golden cups in your lifetime while England ain't won shit.
>GOLDEN CUPS
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
Next you're going to be bragging about the toy you got in your happy meal.
Yes, real grit defeated the powerhouses of Slovenia and algeria
>Implying i'm not 78 years old
>Gold Cups
Please stop
Says the people who literally brag about semi finals and only got there due to easy lineup.
t. got unironically knocked out by Africans
>Easy lineups
>Brags about winning a gold cup
HAHAHAHAHAH FUCKING STOP I'M DYING.
the US couldn't even get past the worlds easiest lineup of world cup qualifying
You havent had a single big athele since Wayne Rooney. Meanwhile the whole world knows of Tiger Woods, Serena Williams, and Lebron James.
netball came from basketball
only women play netball
there is a netball world cup in liverpool on right now in liverpool
yeah australian football predates soccer
although the origin is
>keeping cricketers fit in the winter
the sport is original and draws a proportionally bigger crowd (considering the population of australia) than plenty of other top flight leagues in other sports around the world
Tiger Woods maybe but Serena Williams is a literal who who plays a sport nobody watches and Lebron James is nowhere near as well known over here as burgers like to claim
Yes, the same Africans that should have beat Uruguay were it not for a bullshit handball by ratking
Fuck sake you're not the same autist from the thread last night that was saying a brit with a proxy was conspiring against you?
Harry Kane. Also Tiger Woods is pretty old.
Why is Lebron James always brought up by retarded burgers as an example? Not only is Michael Jordan more well known as a basketballer but Tom Brady is more well-known than any of them.
Wut? Please tell me this was screenshoted?
MJ is old too. If you count him then you'd have to count David Beckham and Michael Owen.
Based England
As expected from a nation of the Holy Alliance
Tom Brady is definitely not more well known globally than Lebron
Thanks for inventing cricket.
>Yes, the same England that should have beat USA were it not for a bullshit fumble by Rob Green
>British faucets
island of autists
Maybe it's just me not hearing much about apehoop, Tom Brady to me is the typical sort of American propaganda athlete
Don't worry, you didn't.
Nah Lebron > Brady
You only hear about brady due to kissing old men on the lips.
Basically someone in a thread posted a bunch of dumb shit (USA is per capita whiter than England, saved England from Nazi occupation, and only white people can be American) and another yank swore it was a Brit using VPN until the poster showed his passport.
I bet 99% of people here have no idea who he is, if I didn't use Yea Forums I know I wouldn't. Basketball is a much more popular sport than American football globally
i'd literally have no idea who lebron was if it wasnt for Yea Forums
sounds like riley sticka
based USL would not exist if it weren't for the britbongs, neither would my nation
thank you!
Funny, it's the opposite for me but I won't doubt you. Brady seems more like he'd get shilled for being a white all-american family man athlete.
in the UK it might actually be close because we don't like basketball that much but it's pretty big in large parts of Europe and Asia whereas American Football isn't really big anywhere outside the US
Not him but I'm kind of curious what the most famous England athlete is at the moment?
lewis hamilton
anthony joshua
maybe Hamilton if you count racing drivers as athletes
Harry Kane. Won the golden boot at the biggest sporting event and played in a Champions league final.
harry kane
andy murray
In England probably Harry Maguire or Tyson Fury are the most popular as they're good lads.
Globally Hamilton or maybe Harry Kane.
Latter is Scottish
>England's Brave Andy Murray
>Scottish
don't let the porridge wogs fool you with their lies
Lewis Hamilton
Andy Murray
Elen White
My country invented England
Don't forget to thank us for all the sports they later invented
He voted for Scottish independence didnt he?
And is Kane a good player? Seems like he just memes his way.
Except England was created in 927 not 1066
Been out of form and shite for long enough that I'm starting to think he's past it and peaked long ago
Kane is a very good player, Yea Forums will tell you he's shit but you can't fluke your way to multiple golden boots and 20+ goal seasons
Tbh I think Pickford is England's best player.
Kane is top 5 Out and out strikers when he's fully fit.
The world cup golden boot was a complete meme though
Felt like Son carried Spurs to the final
thank you
>Normans
>Fr*nch
Nice cope, Pierre.
Spurs could have won the final if there was no Kane or meme penalty.
daniel dubois
lmao
That's not Athelstan
Good for England standards
There's not much competition
