I didn't understand what you meant. You see, for me, a Briton is someone who was born in Britain, irrespective of race.
I wonder if people will feel the same when white Britons are the minority in Britain?

Not originally, as stated, it's just an abbreviated country name, no different to Brit, Scot, Fin, Dane, etc - it's simply because of the bigotted ignorance of the 70's and 80's that it was used as an insult, following the boon of people from India, Bangladesh, Pakistan and a few other countries - the word "Paki" became a collective insult for all of these countries.Am i wright in thinking it was origanally used in cricket to refere to the pakistani team?
Yes it is and I reckon you'd have to be a right James Blunt to be upset by it if you accept the word Yid.
Spurs are not a Jewish club they are an English club. They do not play in Israel do they ? or the Macabi league ? Spurs just have a section of the support that is Jewish. It is other teams that branded Spurs 'Jews', 'Yids' etc and Spurs fan's adopted this term as an act of defiance.
If you don't like being associated with Jews then that is your right but Spurs, like Ajax, are and always will be a club that is associated with Jews whether you like it or not.
I suppose your signature explains more about you and your beliefs
Yes good old Enoch was dead right "give them a thousand quid and send them home"."Yiddo" is misplaced defiance.
Tottenham of course ;-)I never said I accept the word Yid. I don't think it's something that should be used at Spurs and have been vocal on this board about it in the past.
As for your ryming slang Mr-T, I can only guess what the T stand for.
People? or you?
I couldn't give a shit what colour people are mate.
Dude, you seem to be edging towards all Muslims being brown - really not the case. I know plenty of British born and bred, very, very white people who have converted to Islam. Some are very, very black too.Like I said, I wonder if people will be feeling the same in 40yrs from now when they are the minority...
Proper planning prevents piss poor performance...

I think it's 2050 that Briton's become the minority, or something like that.

well said kendall :up:
i can't believe these two (kentucky and powell (i don't want to call him mackay and sully that name)). it would be upsetting except i have the comfort of knowing their kind is dying out. there'll be hardly any of them left soon :grin:
im jewish from israel and we proud of that nickname
in fact i gave my two month sun a great name
i calld him YIDO
"dying out " exactly - Enoch was right as many of us knew - love following Spurs but oh so glad I don't live there anymore and my children did not grow up there.Good luck to the minority in 40 years.COYS !
