I suppose when you are patron saint of soldiers, that kind of thing comes with the territory.

See from that list that he's down as patron saint of both England and Germany? But I've never heard of any German football fans turning up to matches with St George's crosses painted on their faces. It could get very confusing. (Like when England play Liechtenstein, and they both have the same national anthem played before the match.)

It must be a tough job being a patron saint sometimes.
