It's the grammar police
I think that was his point - see the error in the post he was referring to.
Fair play if it was. I missed that.
Hmmm, " hear to be honest"......."here" actually.

Quite. Some people just can't leave this stuff alone. Its Political Incontinence Gone MAD!!!

Why doesn't the Banal Bedwetting Community ever concern itself over this issue when our rugby or cricket teams participate in any international competition? It seems they only want to stir hatred when our football team takes to the stage. The BBC just wants to reinforce it's stereotype of the typical English football fan of being some sort of a racist moron.
Would it be wrong to point out that the middle east was largely Christian for several hundred years before Mohammed even showed up, so that the Crusaders weren't exactly foreign invaders?

The BBC haven't warned anyone. It is not their remit.

Wrong again. I made my point on the other thread.
Are they Crusaders or St George? There's 800 years difference. If they are Crusaders, then they represent Knights Templar who were started by the French.

Considering that the Crusades could be seen as a combination of European unity combined with anti-Arab xenophobia the people wearing these costumes this summer appear to have an impressive command of irony.

It's OK to be offended. Impossible to ban anything that might offend someone

Theres people on NSC that get 'offended' very regularly, and even search the internet to look for things to be 'offended' by. Pretty funny.

I find it disrespectful to the English language that you've spelt it 'hear' instead of 'here'.
