atila the gooner

I spent my honeymoon in Sicily, the place we stayed was on the Corso Umberto in a place called Taormina, absolutely gorgeous it was too, especially as the hotel had its' own private beach which could only be accessed by cable car and a mini bus ride. We had the best time ever, great food, great hospitality, wonderful scenery, would love to go back. We had a day visit to a village where some of the scenes for Godfather 2 was filmed, great memories.

Burning down the house - Talking heads

Although the team weren't booed off the pitch, there were an awful lot of unhappy fans where I was sitting, I was one of them. Although having said that, I did think there was one positive from the game and that was the performance of Eduardo, who is getting better every time I've seen him play.

I'm just so gutted, not just because we drew, but Man ure manage to piss down my back and tell me it's raining. It's all part of being a supporter no matter who you follow I suppose.

Johhny too bad - The Slickers

This is my first opportunity to comment on yestesdays performance which I attended. We weren't at the races and looked very jaded. Fair play to Birmingham who earned their point, but feck me if Man ure don't go and stick six past the Toon and worst of all I watched sat in The Gunners pub in Blackstock road. So much for the perfect weekend!!!!!! :( Ah well, back to work tomorrow and wondering where the weekend went.

Well I'm just off to the Arse to watch the game against Brum. A few beers and a bite to eat before hand, a great way to start the weekend.

Raining in my heart - Buddy Holly

It's like that - Run DMC

Jah, I can assure you I don't hate you at all, far from it. We have disagreements sure, but I don't dislike you, I've never even met you so how could I hate you. From your postings you seem like a decent bloke with good taste in music if not in football. ;-)

You can usually > tell comments which are meant to be offensive or > hurtful and which are meant as a joke. You find it difficult to believe because you are not on the receiving end of this morons "irony". As stated somwhere on this thread, the written word is not always easy to interpret because you don't get the luxury of facial expressions and body language. To assume that because I am from Turkish Cypriot stock , I am in some way involved in the fast food trade is a huge sweeping stereotypical remark, as is saying that all Irish people working in construction, all afro-carribeans work on public transport or in the health service, and so on. Would you be suprised if these people took offence at such stereotyping? I wouldn't.

To qoute a good old cockney saying I think Bob is bang out of order and a xenophobic dick head who takes the cowards route of hiding behind "irony" to excuse his racism, and screams that everyone is far too sensitive when offence is taken. So it's ok for me to say that all English men are beer swilling, footballing loving, hooligans that have a very bad dress sense, who eat crap food, are lousy lovers, read the Sun, wear Union Jack shorts on holiday, shout at foreign waiters on holiday, and in restaurants because they can't speak English, and who love their dogs more than their wives/children . Is that ok because it is "irony"?

I > don't know what does. Too much football has rotted > you mind. And too much xenophobia has rotted your diseased mind, you make racist comments and call it irony. You must be an egg chaser who thinks it's ok to go into any take away establishment and crack tasteless, Alf Garnett type jokes and expect to get away with it. Think before opening your mouth or posting remarks in questionable taste.
