Oh yeah, totally 2 way. Because there's marginally more Brits, there tends to be regional banter towards Brits from non Brits as well, Scouse gets accused of every theft, even if there isn't one. Started by some Northerners in the group I normally get accused of being "virtually French"

Don't get it much over here, but some of the older Cypriots who remember the days when Cyprus was British ruled can try and give you some grief. I sometimes respond if I'm drunk enough. One conversation from a year or so ago: "You british did NOTHING for Cyprus when you were here" "To be fair...

I saw an interview back in the 90s with one of NWA (might have been Ice Cube, can't remember). He made the comment that if you accept a word to describe a black person as being derogatory then you're accepting there's something wrong with being black. It's not something everyone agrees on...

Is it? Let's try a random sentence: Niggas With Attitude were a great band. Am I now a racist?

It all depends on the context.

Just remembered, even the Test-Tubes have a tribute band, Student & the Wankers.

No, you're very wrong. A good tribute band can be very entertaining, and entertainment's what I pay for when I go to a gig. I've seen some great ones. Bjorn Again - Abba tribute, played at Reading on the main stage the year Nirvana headlined (them being on the bill was one of Cobain's...

Athens is crap. Worth a visit for the history, but once you've done that...

Can't agree with Sunderland. I lived there for a year in the late 80s, great nightlife.

Stockport, got stuck there once for 4 hours. Supposed to be changing trains there, the Virgin train I was on was half an hour late, meaning I missed the connection, 4 hour wait. Thought I'd look around the town, it would have been less boring to just stand on the platform staring at my shoes...

I'll be in the Woodman as well, meeting a Scouse mate there at 6. I'll be in my Brghton shirt so easy to spot. If they don't have the sound on, we may move onto the Step for the second half, being a Liverpool pub they'll definitely be showing it with sound, but the Woodman's a better pub to...

Did Gus register himself as a player? Add Uruguay, surely.

He wasn't doing anything to stop the one who was though. The one who went in heaviest, was the one who ran away. Typical bully boy.

I DJ'd a Fulham pub for a whole season, home games only. Never had any problems and they were a good bunch of lads. They knew I was Brighton and that caused a lot of banter, but no problems. The only time it kicked off in there, a group of lads made sure my gear was protected.

Some people (probably quite rightly) said it was sick as the copper got injured, but what about this one? Yes, there was a streaker, the police correctly acted initially and got him on the ground. Then decided to smack him in the face with their nightsticks in full view of the entire stadium...

...and he admitted it. The sign of a good manager. Everyone makes mistakes. Successful people learn from them. "The effort was great but we made so many bad decisions." BBC Sport - Brighton 2-2 Millwall

That's because the England fans don't use it properly, as you say, all they do is a repetitive beat. Over here each song has a different rhythm and a different beat so it enhances and unifies the singing. Done properly, where people know how do it, it's very powerful. In England it's always...

From the comments section: "if you notice, the fans stop the bassdrum from falling the rest of the way, but dive out of the cop's way lol xsxtxjx 6 months ago" I hadn't noticed that untill I rewatched it. "Protect the drum, f*** the cop". I'm guessing it was in Italy...

On another more serious note, do we know it was luzzed, and not accidentally dropped. Tarring all football fans with the same brush as hooligans is a terrible bit of prejudice...

OK, both bands swap members so often I lost track years ago (although I did wonder what on Earth Bosky would be doing in the Texans). As for fat Ian, it was a weak moment, he made those puppy dog eyes... ...and worked for free.
