Bob,

 Having read the footnote one therein I have amusingly noticed that I
 was
 just about to ask you what exactly you meant by English and what was
 the difference in the context thereof between British and English and
 if
 I may be so bold to add here - American.

 Surely I should read this text in its entirety as it is undoubtedly
 going to prove to be most entertaining...

unlikely as it may seem, there is a way in which Americans can almost attain
Englishness:

To be English is to be a gentleman, and to be a gentleman is to be English.

Imagine that.

And here I didn't even know there was such a thing as cricket hooligans?

Most of you have the misfortune not to be English. This link will help you
to imitate those of us who were touched by God's grace, and if you practice
hard enough, who knows? One day you may convince another foreigner that you
