I live in France and very few even realised this had been done so it only served to 'amuse' those that for some reason buy and read the Sun in the UK. We showed the game live and featured today on French TV, TF1; the theme being the atmosphere in an English Cafe full of both French & English. Stunts like that run by the Sun make no impression outside the UK.

It's made no impression because it hasn't been reported on the radio, on TV, or in the newspapers. Thankfully the French media have treated it with the disdain it deserves. If they had reported it then I think the French wouldn't have been too happy. I'm not saying that they would have been in uproar but that their opinion of us would have gone down.
It sounds like you live in a large French city, probably Paris. Try living in a smaller town and you might feel differently about it.
It seems that I was over-reacting, thank God. The last thing I need is some monkeys making my life difficult. Sadly a lot of people think that such an action reflects on you - it's called national stereotyping.
Lastly, that e-mail took me as little time to write as making a post on here. So saying that it means I have little else to do with my time is a bit rich.

Trust me mate if that happened to us the sun would asking to go to war with France over national pride and probably start some silly campaign over it aswell
"I'm not saying that they would have been in uproar but that their opinion of us would have gone down."
Dear me. Are you aware of the amount of national stereotyping that goes on between the English & French and what their opinion is of us already?
You should know if you live there that whilst their opinion of English may be one thing, they generally treat you as they find you & get along wonderfully with a few stereotypical jibes thrown in along the way.

Utter Scum as is David Miliband for doing the report wearing a Swedish shirt the traitor.
This has surely set back Anglo- Swedish relations centuries. ;-(
The only annoying thing about that was the mouthy Australian.
