Banned from Elland Road? Looking at that blue Beemer, they should be transported to the South Sandwich Islands and dropped off with a bag of crisps, and a can of Dr. Pepper.
If they can swim the 1300 km to The Falklands, they can have a job clearing up sheep $hit there.
After 25 years they get a flight back with Ryanair, and a season ticket to Millwall.

I think you should be promoted to Prime Minister, Frank.

Thanks Paul, but meh, if I can’t be Président de la République française, then I’ll settle for La gouvernure générale du Canada, my grandkids reckon that U.K. doesn’t deserve someone of my calibre, out of the mouths of babes,

Fair enough. Canada's a lovely place to be, maybe takeover from Justin there.

Leeds fans...





The aftermath at the ground this morning.

Apparently all completely justified because "it's been 16 years".

Pure council IMO.

Relegated next season. Then What.

From your lips to God’s ears, nothing against Leeds United, but the cretins who “celebrated “ at Elland Road, including trashing that car, deserve a kick in the teeth like immediate relegation.

We passed by earlier on the way home, still 100s of people there, many stumbling around in the road clutching cans of weak lager or flavoured ciders.

The police were still there just watching them being d*cks.

Set up a prison colony on South Georgia and have done with them!

And have ourselves Australia Mk2? At least we could have replacement bartenders. Not all bad then.

I remember many years ago Arsenal had won the double (or something like that - I’m not a big fan of the sport) when a good friend of mine was visiting from Australia. Rather naively I took her to Highbury as I thought she might like to see some jubilant football supporters celebrating their team’s victory. Oh dear! We rounded the corner towards the stadium only to be faced with the sight of an upturned bus on fire, fights everywhere and more rubbish strewn about than I’d ever seen before. And this all caused by the Arsenal fans celebrating. I felt so ashamed to be human that day.

Looks pretty normal for Leeds, at least it looks it going by the last time I had the misfortune of being there..

Are you sure it was Arsenal? Surely gooners would have been out with the picnic hamper and fois gras?

Why inflict them on the good folk of The Falklands and risk unspeakable interference with their flocks?

Set up a prison colony on South Georgia and have done with them!

Trouble in store when South Georgia FC get promoted.

Bloody hell, £7 each and they either dont fit the human face or this one is photoshopped onto the model!

It still seems to fit better than the ones all the F1 teams have, and need to keep touching and repositioning. Which totally defeats the point of a mask if you are transferring things from the mask to your hands, and your hands to your mask where you breathe it in.

I will have to take your word for that, I have lost interest in F1.

Masks are about catching what people breathe out, not what they breathe in.

Yep, day 3 of celebrations and apparently more planned for Wednesday, bottles thrown at police this time around.

And as before the local paper has attracted the same comments from those who thinks this is OK because:

1. "We" pay council tax
2. It's been 16 years
3. The bins were full
4. A tiny number of Leeds fans came back today to help the council clean up

Right next to the Leeds General Infirmary, some people have said that they were going in and out of there there to use the toilets.


If someone dropped litter in the city centre on their way to work and an enforcement person saw them it would be a £100 fine but because this is "lads, lads, lads football fun" anything goes.

It's sickening.

To be filed under pot/kettle/black;
I showed that to a friend, a Millwall season ticket holder.
He dismissed it with, “Northern prick$, what do you expect?”
