I sympathise with you all lads, i live in Texas at the moment so thankfully dont have to put up with the verbal excrement they spout. I have only met one skate since being here and he made such an rse of himself when we met in a restuarant that it was embarrassing, when he found out where i came from he said "oh you're a scummer" after the wife shot me a look that said please dont start in here i said "yes i am and i see Beattie scored against you today for Stoke !!" he then said "i dont follow football anymore" what a plumb.
