Why are English supporters the most pitiful in world football?

Yes there is a linguistic confusion between turnips and swedes. I think there may be a regional element to it.

A curious thing about turnips is that to some people they taste very bitter and to others they don't.

What? Turnips aren't the same as swedes are they?
 
I briefly thought he was saying turnips and swedes could communicate with each other at a basic level.

In some parts of Britain and Ireland the terms are reversed. So a Swede in parts of England is what we call a Turnip. But not in all p[arts of England. And then the Scots through a right spanner in the works by calling a turnip (or Swede depending on where you come from) neeps.

You blighted our spuds so that not only would we starve, but we had no ammo to protect ourselves. Bastards!

My Irish grandparents really did always have at least two different servings of potato with their Sunday lunch - and quite often three. I think they thought each one was part of their five a day.
 
Yeah, before the evil English invented the Potato Blight, you were undisputed Masters Of The Universe, flying about on your potato-fuelled intergalactic spaceships, building potato pyramids, visiting far-off Potato Nebula worlds, YOU WUZ KANGZ.
That was actually earlier, we done all that stuff before the invention of whiskey.

Here's a short documentary on the subject.

 
Why has this thread suddenly become a discussion about root vegetables?

I posted in the thread. Then some members started to post Lucas posts and then the thread was hijacked again and it suddenly it is all about root vegetables. Soon it will probably be all about Lucas again 🙂

I don't really know you, disagree with some of your views strongly but you seem decent enough and your Lucas posts in this thread made me laugh.

You need to toughen up a bit though and call someone on here a cunt - or perhaps throw something at them, a chair if possible. Most of these posters are English and look how they treat foreigners - and veggies.

No respect.
