And he may even get you into the Europa again next year without all that Champions League kerfuffle to go through beforehand!

It was a general comment - the need for chants of a personal nature - hand gestures - abuse. All added together makes for a pretty poor environment. Not all the time obviously but I think these fans think they can get away with it in a football stadium, safety in numbers etc. It will change eventually.

The Kenny Burns comment was from a time when chants were generally less-malicious, but there was more violence. The exception was racism - it was a different world sadly.

Now the chants can be far worse (Beckham in the 00s used to get some pretty disgusting ones, yet society is a lot less violent.


Odd.

    • I had a leaky toilet cistern and Niko came out the same day and not only fixed the leak but thoroughly cleaned off the years of calcium build-up. His attention to detail was matched by his kind humanity. The result was a completely renovated toilet which has never worked more efficiently as well as 'service with a smile'. MANY THANKS NIKO!!!  
    • I am trying to find out about people's experiences of the 4+ and 7+ assessments. I am a teacher and have a wealth of experience tutoring for theses assessments (including my own son), but it's always good to keep on top of things as they always make tweaks to them. TIA!

    • "You have no idea why"   To be fair Sue, it's blindingly obvious to anyone who has a conversation with anyone who isn't a Corbyn supporter. And even some who liked Corbyn (like me initially) found him somewhat flaky even at his most popular But let's say you are right and I have NO idea why anybody might not vote for him. They still didn't vote for him. He lost two elections. The second one badly (and strongly predicted but the stubborn old goat wouldn't budge so we we were stuck with Johnson and another 3 million PMs in the 5 years that followed) So even with ZERO evidence, we have our eyes and ears and brains But we do have evidence   https://yougov.co.uk/politics/articles/27022-their-own-words-why-voters-abandoned-labour
