Of course.  There is always the EDL.

Since the creation of the premiership, has football lost its working class identity, and have football fans lost there working class roots. Have we been brain washed, and socially engineered ?? 

It's the new world order.  You'll be chipped soon.

[garyshawsknee]

Sounds like they already have.

I hope I can be crinkle cut.

[Rudy Can't Fail]

Of course.  There is always the EDL.

Define 'working class'.

[ktvillan]

If we are talking about being brainwashed I think we need look no further than anyone who describes themselves as working class could ever think about voting fucking Tory.

Indeed.  Come the revolution the first thing "They" will do is round up the intellectuals and execute them.  I don't think Standing for Rights need be concerned.

There hasn't half been some odd first posts from people recently.

TAEK BAK ARE GAIM!

[somersetlion]

Is football not just another example of a society that has commodified everything with little understanding that there is more to most things in life than just the monetary aspect?  Health, education, entertainment, sport etc etc.  I hate it but as with all things its not black and white.  Undoubtedly grounds are more comfortable for supporters and you are less likely to get your head kicked-in at a game.  Yet another example of knowing the price of everything and the value of nothing.

[ktvillan]

Yes - I blame Thatcher.

Of course.  There is always the EDL.

[standing for rights]

Yes - I blame Thatcher.

  can't blame one individual for the loss of working class identity at football, the tories played their part people like Tracy crouch. Labour the worst and when the identity was destroyed the most. At least under thatcher we had maggies boot boys and war which was in Great Britains interest.

[standing for rights]

Of course.  There is always the EDL.

not for them as they have been set up by zionists, zionists also want to destroy working class identity at football.  Although I sympathise with the grass roots who have concerns.

Since the creation of the premiership

Bing! Bong! Dave to the thread please!

He was nearly ok.

It was 93/94 that it was renamed as the Premiership, 92/93 it started as the Premier League.

So he was a year out on being correct. About that small point, at least.
