And to prove that I'm doing my bit to keep the ancient art of flicking Vs alive... One day, when my youngest has children, they will all flick Vs together at the Bournemouth fans because it's their birthright. Brings a lump to my throat just thinking about it.

I'm well aware that Johnny Foreigner has his own finger-based insults and giving the thumbs up in places like Greece could land you in difficulties but this is Great Britain. We fought wars to win the right to flick Vs at footballers.

I feel your pain.

For any kids out there unsure of the correct football etiquette, take a moment to enjoy this masterclass from an Aston Villa fan. This is how it's done. Note the way that he goes from one gesture to the next in one fluid movement. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V_J6tOOCH1Q Poetry in motion.

I despair. I really do. God gave us British the two greatest hand gestures in the world - the V-sign and the w*nker sign and yet there's people who prefer the single finger insult. Have a look at this...green is good, red is bad. Yellow is God know's what they're up to. We've got a bloke...

I'm not forgetting any point. I can't be bothered with whatever beef you have with someone else. You made an irrelevant comment about a dead journalist's opinion of Oswald Mosley and that's what I responded to. Regards your Daily Mail comments - I've explained about 3 or 4 times now why they...

Where have I tried to fight his corner? All my posts with you are about your ridiculously stupid original Daily Mail Mosley comment. I've kept it firmly on that topic despite you trying to deflect further by bringing others into it.

More nonsense. You were the one who first brought up the Daily Mail. He responded to you. Repeat - you first mentioned the Daily Mail. That Daily Mail opinion-piece in support for Mosley was written by a journalist who is dead. The newspaper proprietor is dead. The readers who bought the...

Rubbish. By your own admission as the above quote, you wanted to chuck in some whataboutery and you could have picked a hundred different contemporary subjects to deflect but as always you went for the Daily Mail (this time from 85 years ago) because it's easy, requires no thought and...

So what's your view on the anti-Semitism? We know your view of the Daily Mail's opinion and from where I'm sitting it looks a lot like you're deflecting and dismissing the issue. It's fair to say you're more bothered about commenting on a Daily Mail opinion from 85 years ago rather than racism a...

G G Allin. Any of his gigs. Call me funny but I'm not keen on having poo flung at me.

Thanks but no thanks.

I'm fine. I'm even able to tell the difference between "why do football fans feel confident in their team winning" and "is that confidence justified." And I've managed to respond without getting personal.

So you read the thread title and then answered another question. Whatever matey.

Yeah. Course you did.

Football fan in "not reading title of thread" shocker.

Another one here who disputes this "Morrissey can't sing" nonsense. Go onto Spotify or YouTube and have a listen to the Smiths live album 'Rank'. Now gave a listen to him hit the notes perfectly on 'Boy With The Thorn In His Side'. If you're still unconvinced then listen to 'I Know It's Over'...

Likewise Wilkie Collins 'Woman In White'.

Live And Let Die was released in May 73. Band on the Run was released in Dec 73. Okay, I'll happily concede that he was still releasing good music for a further 7 months. Which reduces his on going barren patch to a mere 44 years, 3 months. Yep. That's blown my theory completely put the water.

Paul McCartney deserves to be in this thread for still referring to himself as a songwriter despite having written nothing but rubbish since Live And Let Die.
