Just took a look at his youtube. As a comedian, he is absolutely abysmal. His comedy seems to consist of various 'characters', one of which being an obnoxious right wing England fan, so I'm sure he'll claim it was in character or something. His comment section is full of folk saying stuff like "Know it's a joke but WELL SAID M8!" and the like. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have never heard of this guy but when I searched for him I got "People also searched for Lee Hurst" and that was enough for me. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye, I’m pretty certain his original meltdown was triggered by Dara O’Briain (or similarly inoffensive comedian) doing a joke about UKIP and he went off on a ‘well I notice you do jokes about UKIP but you don’t ridicule Islam for hours on end how curious’ style rant. Basically, he’s been a p***k for years and calling himself a comedian is almost certainly in breach of the trade descriptions act. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The boy in blue trackies looks like he's seriously contemplating becoming a serial killer after spending 120 minutes watching football with such a large bunch of fannies. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gordon EF Posted July 13, 2021 Share Posted July 13, 2021 Watching all these reaction videos really makes me appreciate the banter value of Pickford saving Jorginho's penalty. 12 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Michael W Posted July 13, 2021 Share Posted July 13, 2021 https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-57803366 Certainly the FA acknowledging large numbers of people involved. A shame again however to see the "real fan" trope being thrown out. It's a problem that only seems to exist in a footballing context in England, and so it is English football's problem to deal with. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I actually found that quite painful watching that video. Pretty much every football fan will have been through the emotions of watching their team/country in a penalty shoot out...it's not a pleasant experience. They just looked like football fans. Not a bunch of arseholes slagging off foreigners or blacks. I didn't feel sorry for them, but I didn't see anything in that video that was any different from any group of football fans the world over supporting their team. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye, I've got to say I did feel pangs of sympathy for that boy on the far-right (screen, not political spectrum). He looked head to toe like the kind of guy you'd see launching patio furniture around Lisbon or the like but he looked like he was about to cry in the video. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

German Jag Posted July 13, 2021 Share Posted July 13, 2021 That crossed hammer logo is well known as extreme right wing. A couple of clothing brands, favoured by the neo-Nazis, in Germany use it. You'll get a knock back from virtually all the stadiums in the top 3 leagues here wearing something like that. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tbh, I still thought Italy had another penalty to go after Saka missed. In my defence, I was about 6 pints of Moretti in by that point. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
