Get ready to duck. The poppy gets on my tits a bit. It is almost as though if you

don't want to wear one you must be an anti-patriot. Having an adult conversation as to why you don't want to wear one is impossible. It becomes like a discussion with a religious funda-mental.

Have England always worn the poppy in November games ? I don't think so. I remember all the fuss about one manager or another not wearing one last year. And a commentator too I think. It's their f**king choice. If you stop making it a personal choice then it will lose its symbolic power and become as plastic as a two minute's silence.

Oh bollocks I just remembered I'll be over for rememberance Sunday..
