Cows arses and banjos


He couldn't hit...

...a cow's arse with a banjo.


That's football. Football for: he's having difficulty scoring. Or, for the statisticians, he's opportunity to conversion rate challenged. Actually, that's for the stattos and the politically correct.

The point is, that according to the average Daily Mail reader, all footballers are retarded and all football fans are retarded and violent. But there's a magnificent and beautiful off-the-wall madness to phrases like “couldn't bit a cow's arse with a banjo”, and football is littered with them.

Cricket is the same.

Rugby, maybe less so (with the off-the-wall stuff – proper hard men) but then again, when an after game soirĂ©e involves tipping beer over your own head and others as fast as you can buy it, you can't deny a certain twisted genius is at work there too.

Without dissecting it too much, he couldn't hit a cow's arse with a banjo says it all, without the slightest fragment of reason behind the cow's arse, or the banjo.


MPs and Newcastle and Wonga

Newcastle shirts. Black and white stripes. 'Wonga' sponsors logo.

MPs object.

Guys, look at your funding and do the kettle, black, pot thing. Then shut up and clear off. Please.
