A minority do hold that opinion.

However it is nowhere near as tragic as someone who judges people based on what clothes they choose to wear. Imagine a "full grown human" thinking they know how another full grown adult should dress. It speaks more about the person making the comments than it does the person wearing the teams colours.

Also it's not as tragic as someone making up friends who work in places where people haven't been.

Can I ask, why do you hold that opinion? What is so tragic about it?

Wait....

Let me guess.....

I've called you out and now you've "got a bite" as response?

Ska was invented in Cov wasn't it? I agree about the shirt too. Maybe we can have an Alvin Stardust inspired design :lol:

Tight black leather may be your thing Rob, I for one don't have the figure for it anymore. Although I wouldn't mind seeing the newly enhanced Mrs. R modelling it. ;)

No it’s Jamaican. The Specials (and other variants of their name) were from Coventry though.

Ska originated pre reggae in Jamaica in the 50s shortly before the Jamaican reggae explosion. They kind of merged in the late 60s in London and become the chosen music of the skinhead movement. The Specials and Two Tone sound came ten years later.

Aha, I was probably thinking Two Tone was founded there. Loved the Specials back in the day.
