Get a grip people....there is no serious suggestion that Nelson's Column is going to be pulled down. This was one person's controversial opinion piece that has of course been seized-on as an actual proposition by The Mail and Express, etc. She could write an article saying that in her opinion...
I'd be interested to see your list of ways that "hipsters" have ruined the city. While you mull that over I'll give you a few examples of how old Brightonians have ruined the city:
- allowing huge swathes of old Brighton to be demolished, e.g. Churchill Square, Edward Street, North Street...
I can accept (begrudgingly) that someone could love Palace as a club, in the same sort of way that you might love an old incontinent grandparent, but how could anyone love that area? The most traffic-choked, characterless swathe of London; I feel depressed every time I have to drive through the...
Well yes it has that old-school feel to it, but at new school prices. And at new school prices you don't expect a pillar in your line of sight, or to not have enough room for your knees. Even Palace fans know it's a dump but they still persist in jealously slagging off the Amex..
Have any of you persistent "win the cup" singers ever noticed that massive "STAND OR FALL" banner at the back of the North Stand? It's the most important sentiment of the song, so why insist on leaving it out just because Norman Wisdom did a jokey version?
I really can't see any good reason why you would bother making-up this story; no disrepect but it isn't exactly a mind-blowing tale. So I will give you the benefit of the doubt...
I go back to my original point; if this was an article about black Albion players and you said that they arrived on the "banana boat" you would find it very hard to squirm out of...
Well said that man. I've never heard Irish people using "potato boat" in a self deprecating manner; it's an expression used by people with the mentality of Jim Davidson/Bernard Manning. If El Presidente is comfortable that he isn't being offensive perhaps he could ask Liam Brady which potato...
Oh I see, we are all supposed to know your family background and therefore appreciate that you have special dispensation to use 1970s Bernard Manning type insulting references to the Irish. Cop onto yourself pal...
Do you know what...I don't give a monkeys whether Palace finish above us next season. As others have said the only important thing is for us to stay-up and try and consolidate in the PL. If we can do that the prognosis for us long term could be very good, whereas I reckon Palace have got a...
"The loony left brigade"? That's the equivalent of calling Sun/Mail/Express/Times readers fascists; of course they aren't all fascists, most are just ignorant...
The only trouble is that it was a long time ago, and the football model has been reinvented in the intervening years. It's no longer acceptable to charge a low price and cram as many people as possible into cramped and dangerous dump stadiums. You build a comfortable, safe and impressive...
