    Is Cabo Verde the same as Cape Verde or somewhere else?

    Same thing. I'd always called it Cape, but that's what it's shown as on the telly, so I thought it only polite.

    Like Turkiye. Happy to call it by the name they prefer us to use. Even happier when I know how much it upsets gammons when we do.

    Always good to get to Wembley, but that was one of the worst football matches I've seen in a long time.

    I put it down to the fact that neither Anderson nor Gibbs-White were involved.

    People at work keep asking if I'm going to World Cup. I say I can't even be arsed to go 7 miles to see England at Wembley these days let alone 4000 miles.

    UEFA not missing the opportunity to show FIFA up

    It is amusing how much these two hate each other.

    Just wait until they announce the winner of the inaugural ‘UEFA War-mongering racist orange cunt’ award.

    Surely BFR has some pretty choice views on the Middle East if you pushed him, I hope he made the shortlist.

    Similarly, I've noticed Chile being (I assume correctly) pronounced 'Chill-ay' these days as opposed to 'Chilli' as we all called it the olden days when everything better before being ruined by luxury hotel dwelling darkies, immigrants and muslimists, when kids could be kids and could innocently play on building sites and happlily drink mercury during the school holidays and (white dog) shit.

    I’m fine with Turkieye or whatever. I’m fine with Cymru and Albain, Eire etc.

    I always say the Netherlands instead of Holland after Dutch friends explained the difference.

    I’m not saying Deutschland or Francais though. Fuck them.

    Probably to do with Brexit, so Farage and that weapon off (of) Wetherspoons can chalk that up as a result.

    That one’s good because of how often Brits get snarky about Americans who don’t understand what the UK is.. and yet get The Netherlands wrong all the time.

    Most Brits don't know the difference between Great Britain and the British Isles.
