The one on the right is so committed, he seems to have come straight from his work on a coal lorry. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
101 Posted November 3, 2018 Share Posted November 3, 2018 This guy is organsising a fight for remeberance day and sees no irony what so ever. His twitter made me cringe so hard I nearly turned inside out. His tweet on James McLean is apparently “what we are all thinking” but I don’t think that could be further from the truth 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
H Wragg Posted November 3, 2018 Share Posted November 3, 2018 There have been lots of poppy flags handed out at Villa Park...Flags handed out in lieu of actual poppies due to supply shortage IMO. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-birmingham-46078099 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you'll find that the Free Polish Army and the various resistance movements just got in the way and the Yanks killed more than the Germans. Poppies are for us.

Not forgetting the Poles and Czechs who trained at Arisaig, gave their lives fighting Nazis, and whose descendants will soon have to beg for permission to call our land home. This really has f**k-all to do with remembrance anymore. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cosmic Joe Posted November 3, 2018 Share Posted November 3, 2018 (edited) Not forgetting my Great Uncle Jimmy who got 56 days detention after going AWOL in August 1917 for 14 months. When I hear the phrase "f**k this for a game of soldiers " I'm always reminded of Great Uncle Jimmy's war effort...
