Surely it should be in Orange, White and Green in honour of Patriot playing for Ireland?


Can other nations have patriots? I thought it was just the UK.

There, they're and their does my nut in although my pet hate is people misspelling the names of players who were/are here for years. McCauley is particularly annoying. How many times must Ipswich fans see player names and then to still get them wrong is like a special brand of stupid.

Truly impaired.

Kier instead of Keir is another which some political correspondents should hang their heads for considering they probably see the name a dozen times a day.

But P.S. I completely agree with you about names in general. I find it really rude if people don't learn how to spell or say someone's name IRL.

Predictive text and mobile devices have stolen the satisfaction of rightious indignation at grammatical errors as most of them can be excused by the vagaries of the technology.

I've used that one myself a few times in the past, but am acutely aware that Gav can tell what type of device you're using and could expose any one of us in the blink of an eye.

'Affect' vs 'effect'...


Another one people who should know better mess up: it's "not averse to", not "not adverse to".

Me, myself and I all find this one interesting/annoying at times.

Years ago on here I had a friendly discussion about this with the late Bully, although I suspect it was early in his Sparks days.
