  1. Beans are definitely evil, they are the devil's piles & I'm bang on board with this campaign

     

    However we need a new name. In the US, "beaner" is a bad word for a Mexican, not far from the n-word. So we may have some problems going global with a name like Anti-Beaners Unite. On the plus side, we will instantly win the support of every hillbilly or Texan nutjob and I believe they are quite heavily armed.

     

    We can get rid of beans and Mexicans in one go and all have a free holiday in their lands. Hurrah!

     

    Edit : No beans soliciting allowed in this thread. Negged Uncle Meat.

  2. Fully gay.

    Negged now fuck off out of the thread. Bruce and Zeke you are lucky I just repped you, but a neg is coming your way as well.

     

    Superior numbers means nothing. We have the knowledge of being right on our side.

     

    Take this example that I may have just lifted off Wikipedia :

     

    ■The Battle of Myeongnyang that took place on October 26, 1597. With only 13 battleships, Korean general Yi Sun Shin defeated a Japanese fleet of 133 battleships.

     

    You are Japan. We are Korea. Or something like that.

  3. If you are reading this and you like beans on a fry up can you go directly to section B please and follow the instructions.

     

    Anti-beans people go straight to Section A you handsome devils.

     

    SECTION A.

     

    We seem to be in a minority here and need to take action to rectify matters.

    If enough people are interested I shall start an Anti-beans group later when I get home from work where we can officially show our disgust at the repulsive hell bound bean worshippers. We shall be like holy warriors fighting the good fight. We can badger the beaners to repent and join our group with fear of negging and/or unwanted sexual advances. Can you dig it?

  5. A poll has appeared.

     

    I really can't see through the evil in her, I hope we never see her kind again.[/QUOTE]

     

    Just reading through this thread and that stood out. This lot could end up outdoing her.

  6. My local chippy is just a few minutes down the road.

     

    Now, there's plenty of 'chip shop awards' about, and plenty of chippys proclaim to have won this award or that, but the proper award, the big one, is the National Fish and Chip Awards. My local, 'Fish and Chips at 149', this year won the North-East category (even though I don't live in the North East), putting them through to the national final, which they also won.

     

    Meet the winners

     

    This isn't some tin-pot award, but organised by seafood.org. All the fish they use is sustainable, and upon entering the chippy you actually see the name of the trawler that landed that days fish. The batter is amazing, and the portion sizes are extremely generous. The service is fantastic, but it can take quite a while to get served as the place is absolutely rammed - even on a weeknight you can be queuing out the door for 20 odd minutes (well worth the wait though). Yorkshire is renowned for its Fish and Chips, and were a seaside town so competion is fierce.

     

    They also won East Yorkshire Small Business of the Year, and have won awards for the apprentice scheme they have set up. Professional Mole-Wearer Jay Raynor also paid a visit this summer for The Guardian - I believe I can fry | Life and style | The Observer

     

    Sounds crap.

  7. The Everton analogy is wrong IMO.

     

    Those of us with Evertonian family or mates don't always hate Everton.

    I don't hate Everton,I don't want to think we are competing with them,I hate Man U because I want to think that we are competing with them instead.

     

    Besides the bluenoses hate it when you treat them as an irrelevance.

     

    Everyone from Liverpool will have family and friends who are Evertonians. Still doesn't mean they can't be cunts when it comes to footy. Conversely, when Everton were challenging us in the league and cups in the 80's there was less hatred around. The lower they have fallen the worse they have got, and most of them genuinely hate us. Fuck them.

  8. Nah the Olympic was an 8/10 about 15 years when Stavros (can't remember his real name so I'll just typically stereotype) used to charge 55p for a portion of chips, that and Chans chippy on Homestead was also top around the same time, used to knock round with the lad who's family owned it. Mabel who who used to work there (the daughter) was a vision of pure beauty.

     

    The worst chippy though was The Bungalow in The Marian Square, rank of the highest standard of rank.

     

    ' Stavros ' has sold the chippy now Skids, under new management. Aintree fish bar has been sold as well. Haven't been to either yet ( Stavros still getting refurbished ) but I will report back once I've been.

     

    Been going to one called ' K you like ' at the back of Old Roan station. It is a genuine 10/10. Fantastic food and service. Amazing.

  9.  

    Probably not, but the NFL is weird. Fans don't invest as much of themselves in their teams as we do. College football is closer.

     

    There are definitely dimensions (social, communal, political, tribal, of adversity, etc) that as an arms-length fan you cannot properly appreciate and hence the bond is different. Maybe no less intense, but definitely far less rich, IMO. I think that's what Paulie is getting at (I hope so anyway).

     

    I don't follow the NFL so maybe that wasn't an ideal example, but you get my point.

     

    Like you say, people not from the city/who don't go the game might have the same passion, but it is a different type. It's easier to hate Everton a lot more when you have to go into work with 20 of them the day after a derby defeat for example than if you know no everton supporters and only read about why we hate them.

  10.  

    Is he? Or is he saying you have a different bond?

     

    Good point. I know a lot of the lads on here follow the NFL, would you say someone who has followed say the Chicago bulls for ten years from England watching most games has the same affinity as someone from Chicago, who goes to every game and whose family all support them?

  11. Since someone mentioned it on the Beans on a fry up thread Bruce started, it is a barm.

     

    Hate it in our work all the people from the Wirral call it a batch. It is a fucking BARM!

     

    Found this on Wikipedia so it must be correct :

     

    Bread roll - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

     

    ■Batch, Coventry/Nuneaton/Wirral term , a large soft floured roll from Shropshire.

     

    Though it did say this beneath it :

     

    ■Bin lid, a large round soft white or brown roll common in Merseyside.

     

    Nudger is also a term I hear in Liverpool for a baguette type thing :

     

    ■Nudger, a long soft white or brown roll similar to a large finger roll common in Liverpool.

  12. I think you get a better view on tv with myriad of angles and replays with both close up and panoramic shots. I can't even see how that's up for debate. Take me, for example. I'm an excellent reader of the game and call most things spot on. Then you have stringvest who goes the game la but thinks konchesky is a solid first pick left back. That said i did go the game on Sunday. I went the game. Despite the score it was a hoot! Could not tell if suarez was offside, i was stuck at the other end. See?

     

    The flip side to that is that you can sky plus the game and watch it when you get home and easily make your mind up whether Suarez is offside of not.

    It's less easy to watch the match on the telly and check Skrtels positioning all game or watch the movement of Lucas.

  13. Simon you seem desperate for people to agree we are on the same level as Villa and the best we can do is attract Chris Brunt or whatever other shit player is flavour of the month with you.

     

    You said the other day, that in players eyes, we have won nothing of note except the CL for 20 years. Unbelievable. I mean, the mancs aside, we are probably the most succesful English club in Europe in the last 20 years. Not to mention the FA cups and League cups which you bizarrely don't seem to count.

     

    We are one of the biggest clubs in world football and will be for a long time to come. Are Juventus a small club because they got relegated and haven't been successful for a few years? We are in the top two in terms of success, fan base and sponsorship ( The dodgy City deals aside ) and aside from City, United and Chelsea we will probably outspend every other English club in the forseeable future.

     

    If we lower our expectations to the level of Villa then that is all we will achieve, we should be aiming much, much higher and thankfully I'm sure everyone at the club from the owners down are aiming for that.

  14. I couldn't imagine having the strength of bond I have with the club had I not gone to more or less every home game during my formative years. The sense of oneness - both with the club and with other fans, the hardwired association between me, the club, and the city, the 'hairs on the back of the neck moment' every time you get to the top of the stairs and catch that first glimpse of bright green pitch, the queues outside the players' entrance, the sights, sounds, smells of the crowd inside and outside the ground. The first sight of the ground as you get to the top of Everton Valley. This can all be pooh-poohed as romantic tosh, but for me it's fundamental. And that's without the fact that you get a far broader understanding of what's going on in front of you when the match is being played. Watching on TV is a very distant second for me, and for those who go regularly. Those who don't, won't understand what the fuck I'm talking about, but there it is.

    I go as often as I can, given I'm a couple of hundred miles away. Probably 15 home games this year, and 5 aways, and the odd cup game.

     

    That is a pertinent point. You do get a lot of people who have never been a game / go once in a blue moon saying you don't pick more up at the match than watching it on the telly. How do they know if they don't go the match regularly?
