Pretty much a waste of time wondering what other people think of you since they all have different opinions of your and then on top of that peoples' opinions change anyway. Worrying about stuff isn't going to change it anyway, so it's a waste of time and effort
 
Some of it is a bit strange because it's been translated into dutch and then back into English, so some of the quoted phrases have lost their original wording. Regarding the "toast" thing, the Germans call sliced bread, especially white sliced bread, toastbrot, sometimes just toast, even though it's not toasted. I suspect the Belgians do the same. Also he won't have put any vinegar on it, which breaks down the grease. Though God knows where he's got a chip butty in sliced bread.

This has been done before, but there are some of us who disagree. It's come thrill me again.

back in Austria i lived near a shnitzel stand that did chips (or pommes as they called them) i got pally with the guy that ran it so one time i asked for pommes in brotchen.. (chips in breadcake).. he was well puzzled and so were the other customers :D
 
Well, funnily enough I don’t care whether you have maggots, Magnet or Magners which I’m sure I heard recently. Bloody Magners, I ask you. Harumpf. Well, I’m not gonna die in a ditch over it. You can fill up your senses with whatever you like, as far as I’m concerned. Whatever floats your boat.
 
It's clearly "Magnet", and it's clearly "Come fill me again" because "thrill" makes no sense in the context of the previous line. Get it reight.

It makes sense in itself. It doesn't need the context of the previous (first) line. This is the usual argument, but it's based on a rule that doesn't exist. Fine, fill makes sense, sing it if you want to, but thrill doesn't not make sense and it was the wording that everyone around me / I knew sang at the time I learnt it.
It is, however, clearly Magnet. I can see how young people might confuse it with Magners.
 
Surely the headline is not complete, shouldn't it end with.... "Why has a leading Belgian newspaper wrote this article about SHeffield United....... And not Sheffield Wxxxxxday" ?

You'll see me with a season ticket at The Sty before I sing "Come thrill me again"

Not at all saying you must. I only object to people telling me that I shouldn't sing thrill because it's wrong.
Oh, and I don't believe you. :)
