However I must congratulate you on finding 5 coaches to share your dream of mediocrity...

....we thought youde hit rock bottom with the inclusion of an ARBBLer last time, guess we underestimated you.....

At least we can both look down at the BUBBA crew! Seriously?? 5 or 6 largest city in the UK and they have to come crawling to my league for a ringer to fill out the "team"

( no offence intended, it's accidentally insulting)

(Al did ask both Simon and myself to be mercs )

Which of Gorgoroth's many indiscretions does this relate to?

During the Second World Cup Gorgoroth called us germans.
While we have a sense of humor, being called germans is not something one tends to find funny, even if you're german in which case you have no sense of humor

I can only concur with the wise words above from my captain (Driesfield).

Seems there's not much smack in this UK Smack talk topic. Are the other UK teams afraid of a couple of stunties?
It looks to us the UK is dispatching teams of lapdogs in stead of bloodbowlers to the world cup!

Will one of the moderators please silence these two tedious gnomes. I thought this was a UK trash talk thread.

Foreign invasion is usual for the UK, we should be used to it.
They clearly have nothing better to do - when they should be practising but they are just here

Practice, p-rac-tice - nope, what does that mean.

Obviously we are all far too concerned with the upcoming UK elections to worry about allocating the correct and deserved abuse that all the pretenders who are hanging around in this thread deserve, and I don't mean the Germans... sorry French... ...what, Belgian?! is that not the bottom of Holland?

Nah it's the top bit of Luxembourg surely

Oh... you read it as a direction

Correct..... although a bit more 'dead centre' really.! I fully support the multi-cultural aspect of the World Cup, indeed both Scotland and Wales are two of my favourite Counties in England!!

Surely the word you are looking for is "Principality" or "Princedom"?

I believe that is how you say it? Correct me if I'm wrong Team Sub England.... Or more commonly known "Team Wales"

Eddie Izzard is brilliant but just to educate lunchmoney:

1) The last English Monarch was Elizabeth 1 and after that the kings and queens of Britain have been Scottish, Dutch and German but there has never been an English monarch of Britain, pre, during or post Empire!
2) The oldest national flag in the world is the Scottish Saltire "the flag originated in a 9th-century battle, where Óengus II led a combined force of Picts and Scots to victory over the Angles, led by Æthelstan. A miraculous white saltire appeared in the blue sky and Óengus' troops were roused to victory by the omen. Consisting of a blue background over which is placed a white representation of an X-shaped cross, the Saltire is one of Scotland's most recognisable symbols." and also Scotland's first victory over the English then known as Angleish (Germans who could swim).
3) The Union Jack is predominantly the Scottish Saltire with some English and Welsh Graffiti on it.
4) The incumbent Prime Minister of Britain is English but the previous 2 have been Scottish and currently Nicola Sturgeon is more popular with English voters than any of the plonkers they can actually vote for!

Do I need to go on?
