Essex. Oh my aching sides, over to you Doon. Wonder if he had an accent like Joey Essex.
 
The Telegraph catching a few more desperate fools based on the fact that the Bruce family owned lands in Southern England [plus Carrick and Ireland].

Was it not so long ago they were also claiming that William Wallace might also have been Robin Hood. Mind you that might have been the Daily Fail who seem to have the same intellectual readership standard.

Odd, the clip i read had nothing to do with the Telegraph and i believe the new claims come from someone based at a Scottish university.
 
Plus robin hood is from edwinstowe in Notts. Ave seen his tree. 😁😉👍 some say he is from Yorkshire. But seeing as ave never seen any pictures of him in a flat cap and walking a whippet. I think we can dispel the Yorkshire link. Not unless a scholar from the university of grimsby finds new evidence.

Blimey it’s almost hit a nerve , must be a right stab in the heart thinking the Bruce was English

Oh it gets worse (better actually 😁)

The good Dr writes...

Dr Watson said it was "highly likely" the 22-year-old Bruce was knighted by Edward, the king who was dubbed Hammer of the Scots.
Bruce and his father even took part in the English invasion of Scotland in 1296, at a time when the family had lost its lands north of the Border.

😶😐😂
 
In isolation, nothing, when taken with the post I got deleted when I mention the Ibrox disaster, double standards IMO.

Someone posted a heartfelt thread about a football owner passing away and it being a sad time , in it he mentioned some of the other sad times in football to put across a sad point - you used the thread as a platform to try and score cheap points , it was in really poor taste and added nothing to the Thread.

I "used" the thread ?

I posted another footballing tragedy that seem to be purposely left out, possibly because it was Scottish, gets deleted, yet the very same member starts a topic today, clearly trying to get a reaction, and there s a difference ??
