The sausages are better than anything you consider 'food' on the island. And there really aren't many sports, besides completely irrelevant ones like Darts maybe, in which you have a better record than us.

And going by your fetish for total surveillance, you're probably closer to fascism than we have been for a while.

Cumberland sausages >> All

What do you consider relevant sports? What do the Germans outperform us in?

The Germans are really into their boxing aren't they? The Klitschkos and Abraham attract audiences of something like 10 million over there, yet there has NEVER been a top class German boxer. So there you go. Germans are weak. Less F1 champs, can't play rugby, i could go on.

Olympic sports, for example. Track & field, swimming etc. Or winter sports. There are so many sports in which we have a great record. See, that's the difference to you islanders. You love to pay for watching sports, we however like to actually do sports. Basically every German is member of a sports club.

Those Klitschkos and what not are trained and managed by Germans, that's why they get so much publicity. Boxing is a sport watched by pimps and other criminals anyway. And "c" category "stars" needing the publicity to rescue their careers.

If Germans are weak, what does that make you islanders? Your forefathers emigrated from German lands! Sportsmanship Kimbo, do you know that concept? You don't need to kick someone's arse to prove that you are stronger. That may be the way in Newcastle, but in the civilised world, we have left those days behind us.

Olympic sports you say? Hmm.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2008_Summer_Olympics#Medal_table

4 Great Britain (GBR) 19 13 15 47
5 Germany (GER) 16 10 15 41

Oooh. Unlucky.

Winter sports are not relevant, we don't have snow here, and we don't need it!

Just accept that you aren't good at sports blut.

I was gonna say... Don't remember Germany winning much on the track in any Olympics I've seen. Only track&field they ever seem to do is the big fat throwing events

That was the summer Olympics of 2008, for ONCE you were ahead of us (it was a weak Olympics by our standards). Have you actually seen the all time medal table?

http://www.idsia.ch/~juergen/alltimegold2008.html

If you add East-, West- and now Germany's medals, Germany are the second most successful country of all time in the Summer Olympics, after the USA, and the most successful country in the Winter Olympics. It's not even a contest!

how does a thread about a Liverpool player slapping a Man Utd fan end up with a German bragging about his country's Olympic record?

Germans

East? Ha! East Germany's athletes were all doped up. The females literally turned into men blut!

Blame the Geordie. I mentioned Newcastle incidentally and he went straight back to his WW2 rhetoric.

Obsessed.

Everyone was doped back then Kimbo, so things evened out.

Well, they won medals galore for Communism and comrade Stalin and Brezhnev, so some of those experiments must have gone right.

Steven Gerrard invented AIDS..and the cure. He wrote down the forumla for how to creaete AIDS but then beat himself senseless with boxer like uppercuts until he forgot the cure. It worked.

You are clearly anti-English.

Did you know that the term 'scouse' originated from lobscouse ("Labskaus")? It's tasty, you should try it.

Am not, they're my third favorite national team(behind USA and Germany).

Kimbo You forget Max Schmeling He was ranked 55 on Ring Magazine's list of 100 greatest punchers of all time.

He was really a one hit wonder and was more famous because of the politcal situation of the late 30s rather than because of his skills. He wouldn't have a chance of cracking the British top 10.

Still a top boxer my man.

The BBC man!

Wasn't he quoting the prosecution's opening address?

Not sure, he wasnt very clear I didnt think.

What most amuses me about this is that Gerrard dresses just like every other chinless fucker on a night out. Probably spends 30 times as much on his clothes, but looks identical.

Money can't but you class saints.

Unless you pay someone to dress you and buy all your stuff for you of course. But what would be the fun it that?

Look at the types of houses these fuckers buy? They're all pretty horrible to be honest. BIG sure, but architecturally dull new build houses with no soul.

I don't venerate 'class' but 'taste', otherwise I agree.

This is another reason to object to the wages footballers get - it helps support a culture of tasteless wealth which suits very, very few people.

The man allegedly attacked by Steven Gerrard has described being the victim of a "barrage of punches".


Marcus McGee has been on the stand describing the night he was involved in a bar brawl at the Lounge Inn in Southport which has left Gerrard facing trial for affray.


McGee was first struck by Gerrard's friend John Doran but admitted he had no idea who threw which punch.


He said: "I remember a barrage of punches coming in at my face but I didn't know who has done what.


"Having watched the CCTV it was obvious Steven Gerrard hits me a couple of times, maybe three times but I couldn't honestly say on the night.


"I didn't know who did what."


He confirmed that the incident had started with Gerrard demanding control of the music in the bar.


He said: "Mr Gerrard came to me from my left hand side and requested he wanted control of the music. It was something to the effect of 'Here you are, lad, give me that'."


"You recognised Steven Gerrard?" asked Mr Turner.


"Of course," said the victim. "I didn't give it to him, no.


"It wasn't my permission to be giving it out to somebody else, it was my job so I didn't hand it over.


"He made a move to try to grab the card to take it away and I remember it slipped on the floor at one stage.


"He then walked away, that was the end of it."


The prosecution alleges that Gerrard then returned to McGee to kick off the violent confrontation.


"In my statement I didn't recall the conversation but looking at my hand movements I was asking him how he would react if somebody came up to him and wanted to take something off him in a manner I found to be rude," he said.


"I gave my statement in the 100% firm belief it was Steven Gerrard who hit me first.


"I gave that statement in good faith but changed it after watching the CCTV."


McGee denied that he had been looking to benefit financially from the incident, saying that he had dispensed with the services of a solicitor who suggested he bring civil action against the millionaire.


Barman Nathaniel Lockie has also been on the witness stand and he testified that Gerrard used his left hand to pull McGee's jumper over his head before punching him with his right.


The trial continues.
