Why do so many people want Germany to lose?

[recentlymarried3958]

I have been reading here and other websites including the BBC website (English football), so many people commenting on how now they want Germany to lose in the Final whoever they play, the pundits on BBC tv also have a dislike for the German football team I do not think that the dislike is related to football possibly, surely a team as consistent as Germany should receive praise, I imagine that they are all after all lovers of football? ( The pundits). I went on the BBC website and most of the pundits in the U.K. wanted Spain to defeat Germany in the final and choose Spain to win the Euro 2008 competition. I would like Germany to win the Euro 2008 final and choose Turkey as the most entertaining team in the competition, your thoughts please on why so many pundits and football supporters want Germany to lose

They're angry cause their team isn't in it. Well at least the English royal family (being mostly German) is quietly cheering for their countrymen in Germany.

They thought turkey was good enough to win.

because they want spain to win and gemany are real losers...duh!
whats so complex?

[xalpowered]

It boils down to "beef", the German's aggresive footballing, pedigree, human nature to support the underdogs, past experiences, there loads of other factors too though!

Probably cause they want the underdogs to win and Germany have changed over the years. Their team has become much older...

You probably don't feel this way, otherwise you wouldn't ask, but I do. It's just they are a little unsympathetic and play too rough. People do not want too see tham hold the Cup

For the first reason-- I want SPAIN to win.
For the second-- I hate Ballack (He plays for Chelsea and I support MAN-UTD )
And for the third-- Many people are supporting Germany for some lame reason and so I want to prove them wrong!
