Some pictures what I drew (redux)

His ranting in that video is being compared to Arsenal Fan TV “contributors”, Bellerin is apparently having a feud with the channel.

I believe that the Riverdance reference is to the Wigan supporters’ celebrations in front of the Man City end following their FA Cup shock.

[Ray de Galles]

I missed that allusion, intrigued by the "work suit" part of it.

Panel 5 had me rolling about* and the Mugabe army t-shirt is a very nice touch.

* in stitches, not clutching my knee

David Elleray is wearing a suit jacket over his old referee's kit.

[N est à?]

Mugabe t-shirts are going to be a thing now amonb the terminally irony-poisoned, aren't they.

(Put me down for size L, capped sleeves)

What is "Stop talking our VARS down" riffing on?

[Kevin S]

A Brexiteers' trope, "Remoaners keep talking our country down, they want Brexit to fail."

[Snake Plissken]

Brexit - "Stop talking Britain down" is the stock response when rational people point out the flaws in the lead Brexiteers thinking.

Ah. Thanks

[pebblethefish]

Are people really going to get that though? Or is it a well known Guardian thing?

[Ray de Galles]

I would have thought anyone with a vague knowledge of the Brexit shambles (and the satire around it) would get the joke.

Not a great strip this week, perhaps hard to follow the highs of the last few.

More of a blazer really, as used to be the fashion :

I like to think I have a vague knowledge of it, but I didn't get it

What word usually goes in the space that VARs goes in here? Brexit? Country? Glorious Future?

[Ray de Galles]

Britain.

I wasn't having a go at you, btw, but replying to pebble's comment.

[ad hoc]

No no I got that, I didn't take it as having a go, was just providing an anecdotal example of someone who hadn't heard that phrase. Or meme. Or whatever it is

Eye of the beholder and all that - I enjoyed it immensely.

West Ham predictably provide good Squires material.

The last panel features a self-referential assassination of the Hammers mascot.

Excellent. Classic (possibly contemporary) Viz references, "The Dagmar" and, most importantly, references even I get.

[Snake Plissken]

https://www.theguardian.com/football...tball-heritage in which he takes on the FA Cup.

[Ray de Galles]

Aioli!

[ursus arctos]

Much better than their actual sponsor

The Dagmar?

[Snake Plissken]

Rival pub to the Queen Vic in Eastenders. Burned down by Willmot-Brown.

(Why do I know this? I've never knowingly watched Eastenders.)
