In Topic: Football And A Lack Of Basic Knowledge Of Uk Geography

I'd have been about 12. Season after Stevo signed for Burnley, they played Wednesday at Hillsborough early on and we decided to go and give him a shout.
Getting off in Sheffield, no idea how to get to the ground we hook up with two Burnley fans and get talking.
"Where are you from?" they ask.
"Town." No further explanation was expected to be necessary.

What's needed is the acceptance that it's not being un-British, it's not being disloyal and it's not being shameful to accept the facts that Brexit has not delivered what was promised by those who promoted it.
It seems to me that there is a tendency for those who defend Brexit to interpret the debate as being about their support of the country and not Brexit. Two very different things.
Just my opinion.
Yeah. Good, that. I thought Brexit was about withdrawal, not just from our nearest markets, but from a joined-up world, and even from the need to recognise that a joined-up world existed. It was a withdrawal into simplicity, from obligation and shared responsibility, into a form of defiant but deluded patriotism that evoked the pointy flags in the opening credits to Dads Army, but which would celebrate austerity and revel in isolationism and extremism, rather than seek to combat them and escape them. -

Wonder if the rag which screamed day after day of headlines when Sue Gray took a new job - only to be once again embarrassed when that was deemed legit' - will get it's pantaloons into so many permutations over this...
PS: apparently Bozo wrote about taking slimming drugs. Or summat...
All vital stuff. Reminds me of the response to the supposed Hitler diaries..."'A moth was trapped behind the net curtains today. Eva became most anxious. Must invade Stalingrad soon.'...how much did we pay for this?" -

I’m going to hazard a guess you’ll be rushing to read his column just as quickly as I do!
But obviously for different reasons.
Johnson saw his name echoing down the ages, as part of a line including Disraeli, Churchill and Thatcher...instead, he's part of a line including Lynda Lee Potter, Jamie Redknapp and Sarah Vine.
Still, I'm sure hes diligently working on his next column even as we speak. What do you reckon it'll be about? the difference between cats and dogs? his last holiday? Something the wife said that "makes you think?"
