Judge Rinder was mentioned when a poster claimed he understsood fraud cases because he watches a lot of daytime TV.
Gammon is not a racist term. It's a description of someone's attitude, not race. As you well know.
Of course I've got things wrong. Nothing wrong with that, as long as you admit it IMO. Though some views are so stupid that they are worthy of ridicule. Being wrong does not mean the same thing as lying of course. |

Gammon refers to skin colour and you must know that. It was coined to mock middle aged white men with angry pink/red skin.
If the right adopted a term that mocked black people for the colour their skin turned when angry you would call the people who used that term 'racist'.
Admit that to yourself at least. |  |

Not really. There is less perpetual abuse for abuse ake.Kero is a strident voice and is a good read. If we all thought the same ,this site would be anodyne and an utter waste of time.
Surely,the more disagreements the better. Sometimes passion takes u over and that's fine as it's human nature and shows we have soul. | |

C'mon mun. You're not fooling anyone.
Gammon refers to someone's outlook, before Gammon people used the term Little Englander. It doesn't mean white people, it refers to a particular state of mind some people have.
But you know that don't you?
Look at what this whole culture war thing is doing to you mun. Making shit up on the internet just so you can play the victim.
"Look! The cultural marxists are being racist against US!!! They're the RACISTS!!!"

But the latest insult has caused the most backlash. “Gammon” has increasingly become shorthand for a conservative middle-aged man, who is raging and red in the face when voicing his opinions, which are generally unimaginative tropes swallowed straight from right-wing tabloids.
I pretty much agree with Janan Ganesh! | |

I prefer my Gammon with Pineapple. I also prefer not to call people names and there has been much less name calling recently, on here anyway. | |

Back to the OP, the new board has been a bit of a duff move. All it's done is split the (not many) viewers that this place had. Neither are busy now, even on match night. | | | |

Well at least I (perch) am back to infuse the board with some surreal drivel.
When a forum becomes a mutual pat on the back clique, its time to draw the curtain.
Certainly,looking at the political comments especially around election time was painful to the eyes.
Since when is the "left" right
Since when are the right the bastion of law and order.

Death to Class |
Talking of death to class, I saw Peter Crouch's podcast (on breakfats tv) with Prince William. He seemed like a normal, decent, down to earth kind of bloke. Not the snobby, aloof type at all.
That stuck up oik, that etiquette expert Hanson must be furious that such a person will be our King one day.
The Communist in me is rising again! | |

I don't like our monarchy but William seems ok,but there again,so did Harry.
However I think he 'd make a good King.
It' just a shame he has to wait for Liz to die,then his papa to get to the Job.
I don't envy him at all | |
