We are connected to Sweden, Norway and Russia and I couldn't give a two shits about their results. In fact, quite the opposite, I quite want Sweden do well.
ok let me fix it..

That's certainly not the case most places in Europe mate. Germans don't like Dutch but doubt they care about Danes. French don't give a toss about Italians. Poles don't have anything against Lithuanians and so on and so on.
Of course there are rivalries as well like English and Jocks, Dutch and Germans, Finns feel they have rivalry with Sweden who don't give a toss about us and feel they have rivalry with Danes who in turn don't care about Swedes, Greece and Cyprus should be fun tie etc.
Sometimes we're good and sometimes we're bad but when we're good, at least we're much better than we used to be and when we are bad we're just as bad as we always used to be, so that's got to be good hasn't it?
