Oh, sure use facts to support your ideas. Completely unfair.
But to be fair we turned out back on the frogs because, well... they're french. they really aren't good for much other than churning out some of the world's best football players.

Oh this is hard. This really hard. I'm torn you see. On the one hand my Euro-self wants to leap to the defence of my French compatriots, but my British self is genetically predisposed towards taking the piss out of them.

By "football players" do you mean "football players" or do you mean "soccer players?"

Really? I know very little about the Hundred Years' War, but I would have thought the body count of the 'Second Hundred Years' War' (1689-1815) would have been much higher.

Real footy poofs have way better guns than soccer poofs though.
