    We were sticking it to the establishment because we are the rebel city. Robin Hood would have been all over giving King Richard shit on twitter given half a chance, he'd have been considering his options all over the shop with Friar Tuck in his pocket.

    Leicester literally robbed from the poor to pay for their success.

    Edit: Possibly King John, or both of um. Either way, both cunts.

    I think it was King John. The Scottish one who came back from the Crusades and said: "I cannot allow thish marriage to prosheed."

    That’s history, that is.

    All they have is some dead loser under a car park - & even him, they’d forgotten for about 500 years.

    There's a reason East Midlands Airport was briefly officially named Nottingham East Midlands Airport, despite being in Leicestershire.

    There's also a reason they got a cross about it until it was changed back. I wouldn't want constant reminders of my irrelevance and unremarkable contribution to the greater good of ther wider world outside of my shithole doorstep either.

    I was at that game. It was glorious and one of the best goals I have ever seen.

    Ah the glory of the Simon Cup at the old Wembley. Them we’re the days…

    Chicago: feeling warm inside.

    Clearly the world’s best competition.

    I concur.

    Flying in the face of pure rebel status
    1. Charles I raising his standard in Nottingham, marking the start of the civil war.
    2. The miners strike.

    I think it goes back to Clough really. I don’t recall us being an out and out possession team in those days, more of a counter attacking side

    In other news, I met Garry Parker last year. Thoroughly decent guy.

    Plus, Robin Hood was (maybe) from Huntingdon, while the Sheriff was from Nottingham.

    Not everything in life has to be about Thatcher. Arthur Scargil was an out of control nutter acting without mandate and was bought crashing down to earth by the NUM rebels. From Nottingham. City of Rebels.

    You seem to confusing Robin of Huntingdon (sounds like a right bellend) with Robin of Sherwood (hero).

    Oh shit someone activated Ingo's Thatcher alarm

  • 6 Feb 2025, 7:25 p.m.

    I thought all the Thatcher alarms were decommissioned, when the legend reached a level of parody outperformed by a lettuce?

    What about Torvill and Dean when they started that Bolero routine on their knees because the music was too long for Olympic competition but they didn't put their feet down until 20 seconds in?

    REBELS!!!!!!

    No surprises that Ingo likes the Hoodie Man.
