Red Kite Posted July 13 Share Posted July 13 World In Motion is ace and the John Barnes rap lives on. Three Lions 96 is just a typical footy pop song and should have been left alone. Lightning Seeds are pure pop, which is not to everyone's taste. However, Ian Broudie was in legendary Liverpool punk band Big In Japan, has produced Echo and the Bunnymen, co-written songs with folk like Terry Hall and made a load of cash from Match Of The Day. He is a good live act. Fair play to him. Frank Skinner can be amusing and reminds me of a comic you would book for a 1970s stag do. David Baddiel is a lucky get because he is married to the incredible Morwenna Banks. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If youre an honest person, that sort of patter should be held in the same contempt as yer average Daily Mail/Express front page. Brutal. 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's met with him and apologised. To call him thick is also a bit daft. He's not. He is thick as f**k. He is only repentant as far as selling his TV show goes. Apology took far too long 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shadow Play Posted July 13 Share Posted July 13 9 hours ago, DeeTillEhDeh said: It's like when he won the golden boot at the World Cup. 3 penalties, a header from 2 yards, a tap-in from 2 yards and a deflection off his horsey arse. If it were up to me I would not include penalties when working out the highest goal scorer in any tournament. I think it gives an unfair advantage to players who dominate the team, either through being the captain, being the manager’s favourite etc. Theoretically you could have the situation where the top goal scorer in a tournament is a goalkeeper. I don’t think that’s a fair reflection on who is the best goal scorer in a tournament. Just my opinion of course. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is certainly on the BBC newspaper review so I can only assume it is. A front page that surely rivals anything the Daily Star has ever produced. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why do you insist that he's thick though? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(if it's UK wide...) I'm retired... but I'll put in an extra shift in the garden on Monday if Spain lose. I feel a bit feart I've got it wrong and will have an awkward "why didn't you clock on" on Tuesday, but Monday is a bank holiday for me already, I've got it off? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Monkey Tennis Posted July 13 Share Posted July 13 If that front page is real, then The National is guilty of that maddening thing of conflating the notions of Britishness and Englishness. There's an irony in there. Scottish people, as well as others from the UK, are, in my experience guilty of all the items in that list of things English people do. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why do you insist that he's thick though? I'd suggest he's letting his dislike influence his opinion . Baddiel is an English graduate from Cambridge, an author, a writer etc and is certainly not thick. His apology did take too long but he has shown genuine regret.

Baddiel is rather a tool, but he's clearly an intelligent man. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
