Inanimate Carbon Rod Posted November 11, 2019 Share Posted November 11, 2019 Pretty sure you can go further back, and some of the more working class and red neck sports(NASCAR and some of the southern state college football teams) were embracing it all a bit before then. I certainly remember Noam Chomsky banging on about it when I was reading his stuff and that was definitely pre Afghanistan.Yeh the college teams started it with the camouflage jerseys and hats. 9/11 saw it go crazy and it transferred here. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, that’s Declan Gallagher. Plays for Livingston these days but will come to no surprise he played for Clyde at one point. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye, but poppy-dodging is worse. Footballers wages for poppy sellers. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Moomintroll Posted November 11, 2019 Share Posted November 11, 2019 Does anyone know if BBC presenters/participants have to buy their own or is there a big bag at the entrance of the studio like they have for 4d glasses at cinemas in theme parks? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Benjamin_Nevis Posted November 11, 2019 Share Posted November 11, 2019 Was it last year that Moeen Ali was lambasted by the Express for not wearing a poppy on a cricket tour? Apparently it has fallen off moments before the photo was taken. I wonder if they ever apologised to him [emoji23] 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ah, I seen Airdrie mentioned and assumed he meant the Gallagher that plays for them. I haven’t read the replies tbh. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
