The_Kincardine Posted January 23, 2016 Share Posted January 23, 2016 You're better than this. Thing is, DJ, I am perfectly happy to discuss things our fan base gets wrong and often I agree with the poster. What rips my knitting, though, is getting told we're sectarian when we're patently not in this instance. Defensive much? Aye, sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What rips my knitting, though, is getting told we're sectarian when we're patently not in this instance. Defensive much? Aye, sure. If you don't believe green yin is rhyming slang for F*****, that's your perogative, bud. Trying to support that, however, by suggesting it came from grey and green yin. Come on. I've never in my life heard it like that I'd always use green and grey. As the joke replaces the White. But I think you knew that already. As previous posts show, I myself didn't know what it was referencing, as f***** just isn't part of the language I use or hear on a weekly never mind daily basis. Therefore I didn't ever recognise it until it was pointed out to me in a discussion on here. It's great that we can all have such an enthralling discussion at half 11 on a Saturday night. Says a lot about the sad lives we lead though. Ideally I'd be over on the vinyl thread, but I think I'm the only one posting there these days. It's my new addiction as there's hee haw good adidas getting released and the folk on the trainer thread are Sports Direct dwelling, Lonsdale wearing weirdo's.

I just had a quick search and the first time (in this guise) I used 'green yin' was in 2013: http://www.pieandbovril.com/forum/index.php/topic/202376-england-v-scotland/?p=7626723 That 'green yins' or 'grey and green yins' could be rhyming slang never crossed my mind.

I wonder why the change of heart.... Probably a tip off from the police. They're onto this yin and would rather he called off the dogs. I tell you what though. For a site set up to purely right the wrongs, they don't half go on about paedophilia and Catholicism. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Kincardine Posted January 24, 2016 Share Posted January 24, 2016 they don't half go on about paedophilia and Catholicism. I haven't been on the site in question but this is a distasteful aspect to some of our support. There is plenty of material to rip the pish out of 'the charity club' without referencing either of these. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That 'green yins' or 'grey and green yins' could be rhyming slang never crossed my mind.

Njord Posted January 24, 2016 Share Posted January 24, 2016 Dammit, the reference to private eye a few pages back made me search for an old cartoon. I got it wrong , it was by Punch Anyhoo, it's still relevant to the way the threads gone, it was anti F word propaganda, depicting the F movement as the Monster and Parnell as the doctor. Parnell was a prod. F word ergo is not sectarian , case closed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
