chinapig Posted November 9, 2021 Report Share Posted November 9, 2021 (edited) As a long time follower of his work I recommend him as an antidote to taking football too seriously. Though he often satirises serious issues too. The comments are often very funny too. Edited November 9, 2021 by chinapig 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

red panda Posted August 9, 2022 Report Share Posted August 9, 2022 One of the BTL comments said this: "Incidentally the Bristol City game was my favourite of last season and coincidentally, I've been saying since Saturday that their fans made more noise than the Liverpool support. (Even after Mitro et al had thoroughly punished their temerity in taking the the lead - twice- with the Mother of all Comebacks.) Not having a dig at Liverpool, they really were that quiet - and Bristol's support is that good." 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Squires is a genius (see the Scott Parker panel for proof). On the other hand he's a Swindon fan. Can I forgive him that? Of course, his cartoons are brilliant, though it helps if you have followed him from the start to get some of the references. Brightens up my Tuesdays. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CyderInACan Posted September 13, 2022 Report Share Posted September 13, 2022 Football's decision to halt all levels of the game over the weekend was ridiculous. Albeit postponed by a day, the Bears v. Bath game showed how respects should be paid - an impeccably observed minute's silence and an emotional rendition of GSTK. By the time we get back to AG for the football on the 1st October, that chance has gone for us. That said, if the footy wasn't off, there was no way they could've played the rugby!

Hxj Posted September 13, 2022 Report Share Posted September 13, 2022 14 minutes ago, CyderInACan said: Football's decision to halt all levels of the game over the weekend was ridiculous. It was a 'self-protection' measure to ensure that there were no broadcasts of fans behaving in a manner which would be embarrassing to the Football Leagues. The world has now moved on, so any such behaviour can be tolerated from now on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
