  3. I think he's been looking at his Kellogs Cornflakes box, you know the ones with the ingredients in 10 different languages...
  4. Definitely an American band judging by the lyrics!..any clues Keef?

  7. But was that more to do with him being a high profile player, television cameras etc, ask any Brighton fan about homophobic abuse...
  8. Exactly Keef, that was my point about Spurs fans reclaiming the term. I wouldn't go around using the 'n' word because i'd heard a black person use it. It's all to do with context. Fans of certain teams are using it in a derogatory sense, and appear to be getting away with it...

  12. I used to work in an office, where from the kitchen you could look across a lightwell and see the '0898 girls' in action, 'a mate of mine's Aunt' would be too kind a description...
  13. Don't worry Atila, just a release valve for all that built up tension before the Man U v 'pool game coming up, you wouldn't understand what with L'Arse v Spuds not being a proper derby...;-) For all you serious debaters out there... When Man U played West Ham recently, everytime Berbatov got the ball or came near to the touchline he was greeted with chants of 'Yiddo' from the West Ham fans, Yid I believe being a derogative term used to describe a Jew. This wasn't a one-off, and is frequently heard at Chelsea games too, even if an ex-Spurs player is not involved e.g. 'Stand up if you hate Yiddos' etc, and to a lesser extent at Arsenal games. I know that the Spurs 'casuals' of the 70's and 80's adopted the moniker of 'Yid Army', maybe as a way of 'reclaiming' the word, a bit like gangster rappers with the 'n' word, but this shouldn't excuse the use of this term. Quite rightly the FA have backed campaigns to clamp down on racist abuse, but this appears to only address the issue of abuse aimed at black players. Can you imagine the uproar now if organised racist chanting was aimed at a black player, witness the reaction to the abuse of black England players in Spain. Apart from the odd article in the Guradian/Independant the press haven't picked up on this, TV commentators suddenly lose their voices, clearing their throats instead, it's just like being back in the 80's. When will the FA grow a backbone and do something about the anti-semitic chanting aimed at Spurs or ex-Spurs players?

  15. Bring back hedgehog flavoured crisps... In the UK in 1981, Hedgehog Foods Ltd decided, as a joke, to produce Hedgehog flavoured crisps (potato chips). To everyone's surprise, the crisps were a huge success. Hedgehog flavoured crisps were actually flavoured with pork fat and no hedgehogs were used in the manufacturing process. Consequently, it wasn't long before Hedgehog Foods Ltd was in court (1982), up against the Office of Fair Trading, on a charge of false advertising. Bizarrely, a settlement was finally reached when Mr Lewis, of Hedgehog Foods, interviewed gypsies who actually did eat baked hedgehogs, to ascertain the flavour of hedgehogs. Mr Lewis then commissioned a flavourings firm to duplicate the flavour as closely as possible and changed the labels from "hedgehog flavoured" to "hedgehog flavour" and all interests were satisfied!

  17. ...better odds for 1st goalscorer, half/full time predictions etc...
  18. Annasfield, I usually come in peace, but make no apologies for replying to anti-Utd posts. I don't always have the time for a full in-depth critique response, hence the 'punchy' replies. 3-0 tonight, did you expect me to say anything else ;-)...

  24. NL, your point was that you found the term 'four black girls', in your words, 'pretty offensive'. I presume because the context of the stroy is crime related. If they had been descibed as 4 white girls I wouldn't have felt, being a white person, offended, or that the 'net of suspicion' would have fallen on me. Is it only ok to use the term black when there is a positive element to a story e.g. Obama, but not when it is associated with negative events e.g. crime...
