Well I'm not watching or listening to it

That's my stand. I know it means nothing but it's important to me. I'm making a sacrifice. My son will be watching on his own tonight. I'll be in the other room. I've discussed it all at great length with him on our dog walks. I've also made it very clear he should absolutely enjoy watching England, and his hero Sarge play. It's not his fight, but I can't bring myself to get involved with it.
So don't lecture me for finding Kane et al a bit f**king annoying.

Yes, the press have been all over it for a decade. Your much loathed Daily Mail included I imagine. Still the deaths continued, the human rights abuses continued, still the corruption was further exposed and still they're all out there lecturing us and waving their Rolexes at us and collecting their paycheques.

"Oh but they're bringing attention to the injustice by being there" what utter, utter s**t.
We already know about all the injustice thanks. Horse, gate, bolted and f**ked off over the horizon.

Nah, not for me.
