    It would give me six more. Tuvalu probably counts as it's a nation in 'Pointless' terms but isn't a member of FIFA so I'll add them to my meagre list.

                International footy has never really interested me. I don't have a side to follow and I doubt I ever will.

                England
                Scotland
                Wales
                Northern Ireland
                Republic of Ireland U23
                England U23
                Italy
                Argentina
                France
                West Germany
                Germany
                Holland
                Portugal

                  Germany
                  Portugal
                  Turkey
                  Czech Rep
                  Belgium
                  Albania
                  Austria
                  Switzerland
                  Italy
                  Romania
                  Uruguay
                  Senegal
                  UAE
                  Great Britain
                  Not a regular attendee, so most of those come from a couple of trips to the European Championships and the bottom four from a Wembley double header at the Olympics.
                  Portugal are the team that I've seen the most, four times. Entertainment was sparingly distributed across the 360+ minutes of play.

                    I should keep better records, but it is a bit late to reconstruct this now

                      Might be a few more.

                        Romania
                        Iceland

                        In the Olympics, I've seen Japan, Morocco, Honduras, Senegal, Spain and Mexico.

                        My international football watching is almost all from tournaments, which are ace. Friendlies are wank, and tournament qualifying is only any good if you have a team to follow, which I don't.

                          Not exactly a long list.
                          I missed two. France and Portugal. That shows how unmemorable the Euro 2016 Final was...

                                Portugal vs Turkey, Euro 2000 (won off a soap powder promotion, to my astonishment)
                                England U21s vs Argentina U21s

                                  89. Most of Europe by the looks of things (not Armenia or Kosovo but had holidays in both), surprisingly little of Africa and others based largely on World Cups 1990 to 2010

                                      Was that the quarter final in Amsterdam, dm? If so, me and Mrs Trl were at that one too.

                                                  I'm kinda take-or-leave-it with Ireland internationals. I didn't bother for years, went regularly for a couple of years during the golden double-income-pre-kids match-going period and probably average one a year the last 20 years (on count back I think it's just 17). Altogether I think it's....

                                                    You didn't happen to be in the Brian Clough Stand for Portugal v Turkey, did you?

                                                    And if you were do you remember a crowd of "neutrals" turning to look quizzically at another "neutral" who had instinctively booed Jorge Cadete when he was subbed on and who clearly was neither Turkish nor Portuguese and who worked it out after about five seconds of the booer realising what he'd just done and his mate glaring at him while whispering under his breath "What the fuck did you do that for?! I managed to keep it shut - why couldn't you?! What's the point of staying sober to drive to a new city each day if we're still gonnae get into the kind of stupid tr ..."

                                                    HE MUST BE A RANGERS FAN ...

                                                    "Brilliant - well done - here it comes ..."

                                                    COME ON ENGLAND!

                                                    "Congratulations - you've just outed us ... I saw some of these in our section at St James' yesterday ...

                                                    YEAH - COME ON ENGLAND - INTO THE SWEATYS TOMORROW!

                                                    " ... half these punters probably have tickets for Elland Road tomorrow night too ... oh, well done!"

                                                    IF YOU HATE THE FUCKING SCOTLAND* ...



                                                    Were you? Were you in that stand? Did you see that? No? Okay.

                                                    I'm still there. Regularly. I'm back there on those long lonely nights I wonder why no-one wants to drink with me. But usually only as the first part of a memory which really peaks with what was waiting for us the next night, up that corner where the Leeds United Kop meets that big Thistle Hotels stand.




                                                    *No-one said this. It was still just the Germans in 1996.

Reason: Although the crowd of absolutely-not-neutrals around us at the semi v Germany were very nice after we were outed at half-time - by a Leeds fan funnily enough - for our total silence in the first half.
