If you sit in the home "end" it's your job to crank the singing-up and WSU and SW corner always join in. When I occasionally sit in the NS I notice that there is a large number of people in the middle zone, often older types and lots of women, who don't join in the singing and so the police...
I'll be clapping tomorrow to exorcise some shameful memories from the 1970s. I'm ashamed of myself for thinking as a stupid teenager that fielding black players was "cheating". I never joined-in but I'm also ashamed of being with people who honked monkey noises and shouted "you black c***" at...
Zombie and Linger are two of the greatest songs of the 1990s. In fact Zombie is one of the most powerful anti-war songs ever because it reflects the feelings of the vast majority of people (in this case in Ireland) who want no part in a cycle of violence.
"little to offer other than general platitudes"??? I presume you know that she has successfully challenged the government in the courts on the most serious of constitutional issues. I did a few searches to establish what you are basing your accusations on and sadly it all seems to be coming...
Good! I wish there were more people out there like her willing and able to put their heads above the parapet to keep the idiocy of Brexit in the spotlight...
Speaking for myself I would have gone if it had been on Saturday or Sunday but on Monday night work required me in Yorkshire. Mates of mine who usually take their kids didn't go because (in no particular order):
a) school night
b) poisonous atmosphere at the last game
c) expense so soon after...

Chip on shoulder definition: "to blame other people for something bad that has happened to you and continue to feel angry about it". Being England's neighbours has resulted in a lot of bad stuff happening to them so perhaps you are right.
What is all this about "punishing people for their sins"? The subject of this post is whether casual racism against the Irish, Welsh and Scots still acceptable. Are you saying that if it comes the other way towards the English it's bullying? Oh and of course my first sentence is true.
Crikey that is a narrow view of history; subsidisation has only been required since England's post colonial phase of history. The resources of Scotland/Wales/Ireland were relentlessly exploited to build that empire, for e,g, coal from Wales, ships from Scotland and linen and horses from...
I don't get this. Perched in the WSU I can vouch for the fact that I joined in with at least the following (along with others) which started in the NS and were sung loudly Vs Burnley:
1. GOSBTS
2. Albion...Albion
3. Brighton..clap clap cap
4. Coz we all follow Brighton and Hove Albion
5...
