Being crap is perfectly acceptable, in fact discussing your team's crapness is one of the joys of the game. Neither do I have any axe to grind with proper Newcastle fans like yourself who have suffered long and hard. However, continuing to pay that disgusting serial-racist maggot Lee Bowyer 30 grand a week should make Newcastle much-disliked by any right-minded person, let alone a football fan.

Whoaa. How did this happen? One minute we're discussing the value and morality of BF playing corporate gigs, the next we've veered off into a dull, anglocentric spat about football. (If interested in this off-topic debate read on.) What's wrong with Ferry liking football, supporting his local (if not local to his home then local to his college) team and occasionally attending the big games? And, give me strength, what a tired argument about class and football. I've attended games all my life and I know it's a lot safer, less racist and generally more family friendly today than the days of peeing down a rolled up newspaper and skinhead hatred that I recall from my childhood. Football reflects society. Today there's those who are rich, then a massive group of fairly classless working people (90% of the population?), and an underclass of folks on benefits. Is that really news? It has always baffled me that some Avalonions have thought ill of Ferry for going to a Cup Final. He's succesful, has a few bob, and fancied seeing a live game. Move on guys.

Shame on you, Martino ! And we all thought you were such a peace loving soul. We'll all be keeping a damn close eye on you now if we're standing next to you at a gig, I can tell you.

I would say that fox hunting was a class issue, but I wouldn't want Martino to spill his half-time mug of steaming Pouilly Fuisse*. Yours is a point well made though Jonathan, and one I've been trouble by before. Sadly, idols often have feet of clay.

Try to read some Norwegian for a change, it is much easier than you think ;) http://pub.tv2.no/nettavisen/side2/kjendis/article556283.ece Kari I don't read much Norwegian, it's true, but aren't these pictures with Ben Elliot? While surely Tom Parker Bowles would be Camilla's son and not her nephew? Damn, revealed too much knowledge of the royal family... Also, Martino, surely Cameron put in an eloquent defence of The Queen Is Dead and NOT Hatful of Hollow? Speaking of Cameron (how did that happen?), I'm just wondering if his charismatic charms would have been so catastrophic if he had NOT actively campaigned in Scotland for Thursday's by-election? When the neighbourhood next to Gordon Brown's seat votes in a political party without a leader, without a policy and reeling from farcical PR nightmare to the next, it doesn't bode well for No Longer New Labour, SNP or the 4th placed Tories. You think Ferry doesn't show public support for a much-disliked brand? Why did he choose to reveal his back-on relationship with Katie at the Tory bash? Two much-disliked brands for the price of one? Aren't the January sales over?
