Come On You Spurs!!!

Give Chelsea a good run for their money

 

I've even got me flag pinned to the window! TOTTENHAM HOTSPURS, GLORY OF ENGLAND!
*puts on shirt*

 

Did they win?

UP THE YIDS!!

I can't abide watching British league football these days, but I do still have a soft spot for Spurs...

 

3 each, although tottenham deserved the win

 

aye they did. The manager shouldn't have taken berbatov off and put on fucking lazy assed wanker Mido. He's a twat. Then he went and took Lenin off...there was just no hope and Defoe was unlucky.

 

Twas the FA cup quarter finals, completely different ball game

 

If your a spurs fan one can kinda get away with that, if you ain't be prepared for the charge of rascism.

 

dears of her

Lenin = Lennon

Probably blown there chance I imagine. 3-1 up at half time.

 

Singing I've got a foreskin haven't you? Ahem....

 

Given I am half French, and have Jewish blood, I don't think the charge would stick...

 

I don't even know what a yid is...

 

google

 

It's a term for a Jewish person. Have a look at Life of Brian when Brian goes crazy and asserts "I'm not a Roman mum, I'm a kike, a yid, a heebie, a hook-nose, I'm kosher mum, I'm a Red Sea pedestrian, and proud of it!"

 

lol ok

well I will forget about it again if I can't use it
Mind you, I do use the word Gippo a lot, but I don't really care about offending gippos...they're like vermin

 

Grrrrr! I like travellers a lot. Have met quite a few Roma and Irish travellers, worked on a documentary with Indymedia going round several of the traveller sites. They get a lot of bad press, but the ones we met were very down to earth. They lived on land they owned, paid their taxes, very clean living, pretty crime free, had good relations with the local villagers. It was only the media, they said, that they got a lot of hostility from. Just goes to show, you can't judge the majority from the actions of a few....

 

Not to mention quite a few new age travellers as well. (my doesn't that sound dated).

 

Oh yeah of course, that goes without saying. New Agers are an entirely different kettle of fish flavoured quorn pieces....

 

I was only playfully gippo bashing. However, most of the ones that come to Devon just come to detroy and rape the land and everything around it before moving on and leaving destruction and ugliness. Some of my friends have been attacked back in their school days by gippo kids, one even has a spike from an electric fence thrown at him and it impaled in his head! Then there's the theft. You can kind of understand why they are not welcome in many places.

Fortunately, Somerset council has just put some money into permanent Gippo sites, to stop them from causing so much destruction.

 

Obviously you're going to have some trouble makers. The Roma we spoke to compared their situation to a city. If some people in a city are thieves, or vandals, you don't assume everyone in that city is a thief or a vandal. It's quite surprising that the media has tried to do exactly this with the travellers communities. I think having permanent sites would be a lot better, it'd remove a lot of the problems. One of the reasons so much destruction is left behind is because councils will try to forcibly evict communities, even where they own their own land (but don't have planning permission) which will leave a lot of mess behind. In one case we found that the council had actually destroyed the land themselves to stop the travellers returning. But yes, there will be problems with crime and vandalism, and these can be reduced with permanent sites. The trouble is that after the Criminal Justice Act of 1994 - the same act that cracked down on rave culture, councils were no longer required to provide sites for travellers, which led to much more squtting and social tensions....

 

well I definately know that the gips didn't own the land outside of the Environment Agency in Exeter... and the amount of rubbish and nastiness they left there was dreadful.

Same with the woods, we don't want them in the woods... we already feel unsafe with the amount of doggers and cottagers up there, let alone being mugged for a tin of beans.
