Alex 35616 Posted November 2 Share Posted November 2 Absolutely fucking mental, mental gymnastics over the Seaham Tommy thing. Like they’re offended but they’ve no idea why. Let alone coming close to articulating why. As an aside, I fucking hate almost all of it at this point. Not Remembrance or the war memorials marking the fallen. Just everything else and how it’s really just hijacked racist/nationalist/ jingoistic bollocks. White vans with big spitfire/Tommy/poppy/lest we forget etc. on them. Lest we forget what? You ignorant fucking cunts 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Monkeys Fist 43115 Posted November 3 Share Posted November 3 “ I live in a hole on a dirt road in Bulgaria. The other day, I was talking to a bloke at the local war memorial when he asked me about Seaham Tommy. Said he’d been a fan ever since seeing it on Netflix. We had a good half hour talk about how his local football team was set up by sunlin’ glass workers, which he didn’t know about, then I asked him what he thought about the war memorial in Poocastle. He spat on the ground. FTM Marras ” 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You ignorant fucking cunts Getting away from the perma-comical MLF take on EVERYTHING I've thought for a long time about the remembrance fetishism. There was a pitch side bugler at arsenal last week and I'm thinking it's October? If it was remembrance weekend fair enough but when you're calculating when the last home game will be before RD and going back a fortnight to get your military personnel on the pitch are you overdoing it? Lest we forget? You can't forget something you've never witnessed. It needs scaling down a bit in my eyes and the original point of RD and the people who lost fathers, uncles, sons etc is now being a bit hijacked by the usual bull's clems. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve seen a few British Legion “ads” where they’re explaining that monies raised are going towards caring for ex-service folk with disabilities, housing troubles etc. It definitely seemed like a deliberate shift in focus on their part, even though that’s been part of their efforts for a while. I have a strange sense of why I wore/wear a poppy on the 11th- it’s solely to remember the poor fuckers who had no option but to go to war because of conscription, and died as a result. I’m otherwise fairly anti-military tbh. Most ex-squaddies I’ve met have been insufferable pricks, and I have no time for the likes of Help for Heroes, since any service personnel injured at work should be the responsibility of their former employer ( who they chose to work for). I realise KCG might be mildly chafed by this, but hey, whaddya gonna do??? The entire “Lest We Forget” car/van sticker crew can get fucked with a rusty Lee Enfield 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the state are going to employ people to go to war, the state should look after them when they're injured. Going further, this is why I don't like charity in general. I'm not comfortable with individuals having to donate money for what are often essential services like hospice care. I'd rather be taxed and for these organisations to have a steady predictable income stream without duplication (i.e. better efficiency). I want the money that's left in my pay packet to be spent on my own family without constantly being made to feel guilty. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Renton 22009 Posted November 3 Share Posted November 3 Anyone have a clue what Brian is babbling on about here? What's this famous Man City match he's talking about? I'm guessing it was at least a decade ago. I don't remember it. Maybe if I did, I'd love the MLF's too? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NJS 4411 Posted November 3 Share Posted November 3 I agree 100% with Renton. Charities are there to salve the consciences of people for things which should either be unneeded or catered for by the state. Ones started by middle /upper class bored wives are generally nonsense. I concur with MF on remembrance stuff - all respect to those called up or those who had to do national service but I don't care about the rest. I also think it's now about glorification and a "patriotism" test which abhors me. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They had a couple of wins against them in Man City's "development" phase when they'd spent but hadn't won the title I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gemmill 46089 Posted November 3 Share Posted November 3 From 2011/12 season when Man City won the PL for the first time. So basically it was from before they were even the Man City that dominates everything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes servicemen should be cared for by their employers but that still comes down to is.
