The Big Question - Club or Country?

[Man From Mars]

Thats not very patriotic derek .

[lovely stuff]

England to win the world cup, definietly.It may only happen once or twice (if we are lucky) in our lifetime.I expect (hope) that Town will win the league much more than that, in the next 40 to 50 years.

 

Anyway.Town have the oppotunity to win the league once every 12 months.England only have the oppotunity to win the world cup once every 4 years.

MFM-if any Town fan went onto the EFC forum and made comparable comments, you & others would be up in arms. Shove off back to your own space-wherever that may be.

In fairness SoB, I'm sure most of the people logging onto the Enfield forum are Town fans anyway. If you look back over their postings, the majority of them are idiotic comments so you can't blame MFM for coming on here for intelligent debate.

 

He can't be so bad if he likes the Levellers. By the way here's some interesting info for you MfM, my Dad wrote one of the Levellers hits!

I cannot understand why any Englishman would not want their national side to win over and above their club side.

 

COME ON ENGLAND!!!

I guess it all depends at what level your team plays. For those that follow fairground football then I suppose there might be some interest in the events in Germany during the next few weeks; for followers of REAL football, then the progress of the FA non-league squad may be of more interest.

Where was my bragging? I was asked a question and gave a civil reply.

 

You should be aware, what with your working class roots and all, that Oysters were very much the food of the poor working class in the 19th Century.

 

Now as for the Lobster that I had with it! Well that is a different kettle of fish.

It was an album track from the hit, self-titled Album, 'The Levellers'. The track is 'Is this Art'. Apperently they do it brilliantly live.

[Man From Mars]

The first time I had eels was in Belgium (Bruge actually) and I was very impressed. I would have thought that a person with your anti EU views would not deign to eat such continental food.

 

Have you ever seen or read "The tin drum" by Gunter Grass

 

"Agnes Koljaiczek (Matzerath): Oskar's mother and closest confidant. Although she marries Alfred Matzerath, a soldier she meets as a nurse, she has an ongoing affair throughout her life with Jan Bronski, her cousin. Oskar suspects that Jan, and not Alfred, is his actual father. After an incident watching an eel fisherman at the coast, she begins to eat fish obsessively and eventually dies."

 

It is my recollection of the film that the eels devour Oskar's dead grandfather who drowned under a raft.

 

"Joseph Koljaiczek (Wranka) / Joe Colchic: Oskar's maternal grandfather, who hid from the police under Anna Bronski's four skirts; he was wanted for arson (burning down a paper plant). He fathers Agnes, Oskar's mother, the day that he meets Anna Bronski, (whether while hiding under Anna's skirts or later that night is a subject of debate), and marries her that night. He then takes on the persona of Joseph Wranka, a dead riverman, living and working for many years. Once he is found to be Joseph Koljaiczek, he attempts escape from the law again, only to drown under a raft in his flight. A family myth remains that he actually survived drowning and fled to America, where he became a millionaire lumber baron in Buffalo, N.Y. under the name Joe Colchic."

They had a couple of decent records but the titles wont come to me. <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/blush.gif" alt="" />

'Just The One' and 'Hope Street' were two of the most recent hits. I really got into them because they sang the song my old man wrote. I prefer New Model Army though - the same message but a little more hard-hitting! I think they must have inspired The Levellers.
