Non sense. it's done live with it. We can call you by names you won't like as Redneck,Rosbeef,square head etc... but we don't because it's total ingratitude to do so. Think hard next time before insulting like this. Ahh because you English never losing battle instead you say things like this: The English authors have a knack of turning defeat into victory in the Dunkirk style. (The catastrophe at Dunkirk was called by many Englishmen as "It is victory!" and was celebrated in speeches, paintings and peomes. History of the "invincible redcoats" is full of such "victories" :icon_roll It was not a particularly hard job as certain English participants of the campaigns denied their own mistakes for reasons of personal and national pride. Wellington refused to write the history of the battle of Waterloo because if he had, he would have had nothing good to say about some of the participants who were celebrated as heroes. Wellington wrote to the Earl of Mulgrave: "If a true history is written, what will become of the reputation of half of those who have acquired reputation, and who deserve it for their gallantry, but who, if their mistakes and casual misconduct were made public, would not be so well thought of?" So maybe the superiority of the British army lies in the English writers self-aggrandizing patriotic jingoism. ... British Defeats."Reading certain accounts of English mega-prowess at war, you wonder if the English casualties are not all caused by friendly fire." They were defeated not only by the Europeans (between 1750 and 1815 alone they lost more than 60 battles to the French) but also by about everyone they ever fought with; Albanians (Rosetta), Argentinians (Buenos Aires), Americans (Cowpens, New Orleans), Poles (Fuengirola, Albuera), native Indians (Monongahela) etc. etc. French general Souham succeeded in taking the fortress of Nijmegen defended by 30.000 English infantry supported by 1.200 Dutch troops. French GdD Suchet defeated 2 British amphibious expeditions from Sicily against Spain's east coast. And don't forget how Napoleon knocked the stuffing out of gen. Moore and his 'invincibles'. The Brits were not just taken to the cleaners down to the coast by Napoleon's troops, but washed, pressed and sent home in a brown paper bag.

We already beat you by a few century since as you said we use supermix genetic blood. France prime blood are Germanic, Celtic, Roman. Cool down a little and i will do mine. If you are what you said stop insulting the French. Yes we invaded and conquered you and you use a third of French words more or less. Since you have noble French blood it was logical than sooner or later you will come to us but at the 100 years war you strike us when we were weakening from a civil war. It's a cheap way to demonstrate your vaunt power but England are renown for such treacheous record. At first you and your french bourgogne ally win stunning victories even though we managed initialy to win somes with King Charle V. Only later with Joan of Arc with King Charle VII we managed to crushed and trashed you. AND GUESS WHAT? WE WIN THE 100 YEARS WAR. English biggest victories are Crecy, Agincourt, Poitiers French are: Patay, Orléans, Formigny, battle of thirty, Castillon I might add that French Knight were the best in Europe with the best plate armor. English arrow has iron tip prove innefective agaisnt french steel plate. At agincourt it's not directly the arrows that kill us but the horses, thus it trapped beneath them our mens who drown in deep mud and water Also we were the first to use Cannon in Europe and we use it very well against use inflicting huge losses. Europe can work together but Britain must not have the leadership. Up to now we have stronger companies than you and moreover ours are nationalized and we buy others who are private. example of strong French company: THALES, DCN, GIAT, SAGEM, etc.. I believe France and Germany should lead Europe with Britain second place behind.

Mouahahah not only that year was bad for you but the years following since them was bad for you. Ohh i see.... a British forgotting numeous defeat they got in their history. :tongue: Probably British 'Superiority' and Macho-Militarism resurfacing in history times when need.. Reminder: The Englishman boasts of himself that he is so tough soldier that he does not know when he is beaten. That's right, impaired judgement and thought process happens to people under stress, especially to fleeing troops. But they were not retreating, oh no. They were advancing in another direction.:icon_lol: Englishman Samuel Johnson: "Our nation may boast, beyond any other people in the world, of a kind of epidemic bravery." :biggrin: a typical example "... the British infantry broke, and throwing down their guns and cartridges, made for the wagon road, and did the prettiest sort of running !" - eyewitness at the Battle at Cowpens In 1814 at Berg-op-Zoom the British 55th and 69th Regiment of Foot advanced in the dark then suddenly broke and fled in a wild panick. "Not a shot was fired at them, nor was a single Frenchman seen." (Nafziger - "Imperial Bayonets" 1996 p. 164) Oh yeah need to add that We won so many battle compare to Britain that you pale in comparaison.

To britgliderpilot Greeting... I must correct you on certain points. First off, Your Genetic contain French blood. England was conquered by Guillaume of Normandie in 1066. The Hasting battle prove to be a failure to your vaunt heritage(Anglo-Saxon). Most of English lord had French origin after that and your English language roots was altered and modified with French language. Don't mock up the French because they do won most battle than England and UK together + they have done this all the way alone most of the time not like you hiding behind powerful allies. :icon_roll
