I'd hardly call my post 'judging you'. If you're that easily offended maybe you should stay in a bit more and then you could watch the Swedish series Easy Money.
Here's an idea, if you don't know something then look it up on google instead of typing some sarcastic remark (do you see the irony?)

Yes, the irony of your response is not lost on me. I've been around a bit.

And many thanks for suggesting I refer to Google every time I don't know something (presuming of course that I would want to know) but please bear in mind, that if I did that every time I didn't know something, I would be spending every waking minute of my life referring to Google, and yes, I would need to 'get out a bit more'.

I have to add that my responses today have all been a bit skew-with because I've been in a stinking mood all day. I'll be OK tomorrow...

Tony Warren was a massive Tottenham fan. Many people wouldn't recognise his name, but he invented Coronation Street and many of his characters down the years have had the same surnames as some very famous Spurs players.

I think he also had THFC as graffiti on a wall during his time.

Don't know if he's been mentioned, and I know he's passed away now, but Warren Mitchell (AKA Alf Garnett) was a massive Spurs supporter & was often seen on the terraces at WHL...

Not sure if any of you know the band Dreadzone?
Leo [the bass player] is a HUGE spurs fan, he was also in Big Audio Dynamite in the late 80's.

Here's a chap not many will be aware of unless you follow professional snooker (I do)...but Martin Gould is a massive Yid.

I've been wondering lately whether we should start to keep a record of celebrity goons too. I don't know if there's any appetite for something like that on here, but all I can say is, sometimes when I like someone famous and then suddenly find out they are on the dark side, I stop liking them immediately. I've been a Who fan all my life, until the other day I found out Daltrey is a goon and I was gutted. No more Who for me. See what I mean? Should we all be aware of who these famous people are, so we can stop liking them...? What do you think chaps and chapesses?

On the down side you’re gonna hate Ray Davies, Idris Elba and Mo Farah; on the upside you’ve got Piers Morgan,Bin Laden Donald Trump, Adolf Hitler and Jack the Ripper ( I’ve may have guessed a few of the latter but if they weren’t they should have been!)

Trump probably isn't, but his son is. Here's Barron re-enacting their huge Europa quarterfinal winning goal in a full kit.

I knew Kenny Lynch from years ago and chatted with him but I cannot recall ever talking about Spurs!

I remember him saying he was at a Spurs cup final banquet up in the West End probably the 91 FAC
