If you get a chance listen to the two callers to Stephen Nolan's show Saturday night.

Starts at 1:46 in. English fans in Danish section for Denmark game. Awful, awful behaviour - second caller alleges that English "fan" threatened her 9 year old daughter. Makes me so ashamed.

Well it's not a few louts then, far many. Better discussion on the zero tolerance thread, but think it is worth adding that as a nation we encourage excess drinking. I should know, I was p.ssed for much of my late teens and twenties. Not big or clever, but despite numerous embarrassing incidents, I never got into any situations like we saw on Sunday.

But i will pick up on one thing....Football is not a boisterous sport at all. It's actually a rather dull, sedate sport....89 minutes of passing to each other for 1min of actually shots on goal/action....its no wonder you have to be rip-roaring drunk to get through it.

I am a Rugby fan, but on the chat, you're not even close mate...we discuss HELI-Skiing...very different from a normal ski trip....much more exclusive...not a pleb in sight.


Also...it's spelt 'you're'

Actually one of my favourite English rugby players/political commentators seems to have gone missing on twitter - hope he's back soon as I like his posts :)

Yes - suspect a short ban on posting for something he said about a tory activist (I maybe wrong) :)


Hope to hear more commentating from him too.

      Councillor McAsh defects to the Greens

      By first mate · Posted

      I am struggling to understand how Green policies translate to local issues? The Southwark Greens leaflet I received reads like a general wish list but is not locally specific. I know the same can be said of other political parties. What specifically are Greens plans for housing, protecting local parks, council tax, transport and roads/ pavement upkeep, CPZ/LTNs?

      Politician's moving from one party to another, especially when local is worth discussing. You have to wonder what they are driven by, and particularly in this instance, as their new party is moving in strange directions.

      Councillor McAsh defects to the Greens

      By Blah Blah · Posted

      To be fair to Sue, she doesn't have to explain or justify why she supports or wants to vote for any party. That is the same for everyone. We are free to decide which party best reflects what we think is important to us. Discussing the stances/ policies of parties, in a general discussion, can be done without targetting anyone commenting here. Politics is just a point of view at the end of the day.  Different things are important to different people, often for very valid reasons. Let's be respectful of that.  My opinion is that if say the Labour Party wants to understand why it is losing supporters to the Greens, it needs to listen to and understand the reasons why. That theme has been explored in this thread a little through the discussion around councillor McAsh. The same is true of the Tories losing support to Reform and the Libdems. Let's not also assume that every member of every party is completely on board with every policy of the leadership of that party either. You only have to look at how backbenchers have forced u-turns from Starmer's cabinet on things like Welfare Reform and WFA to see that.

      Bitten by dog on Heber Road

      By CPR Dave · Posted

      As a compromise I'd be prepared to trial the reintroduction of dog licensing. The annual licence fee would be the same as road tax for Range Rover (same carbon emissions as a dog) and would require owners to pass a responsible dog ownership exam, the dogs would need to pass training and a behaviour exam and their DNA would need to be kept on record to identify the owners who leave dog shit all over the pavements, so that they can be jailed.
