read the post re Aston Villa - the reference to Jews may be thought ok on your board but would be deleted on the Bounce (I hope):tuttut:

I feel I must explain something about this. Not in the posters defence by the way cause i'm not too fond about using that kind of language either. But the guy who wrote this doesn't mean jewish people in general. He just means Ajax supporters. Ajax fans started calling themselves 'jews' in the early eighties, probably as a reaction on Feyenoord fans calling them that (Amsterdam has a big population of jewish people).Up until this day they still do. As a result of that some dutch football fans (especially the ones that hate Ajax) call them that too

What's the story behind your avatar photo?......

Couldn't see that anyone had done it Frizzie, so have added to the English forum meself. They call it a 'fixture list' here, maybe that's why...? Either that or I have just transgressed international laws!

Bet you get to see them more often than me this year :(
 
I could have known that, thanks anyway.

But if we play against hearts or the Rangers can we count on your support?
