Teenage Kicks Sénor

Si Sénor we have the teeange kicks...News reaches us this week that Spanish is to adopted as the official language of Liverpool City Council.

A source within the council gave us the following statement in a dingy city centre pub, with the promise we wouldn't publish it online....

"A'right wack, well there's so many Spaniards in the city now that it's easier y'know, to like speak Spanish. With most of the Liverpool team, like Spanish, y'know, and dey have big families, it means there're more people working here speaking Spanish than people working here speaking English."

We understand that the sudden decision to dump Scouse as the city's first language [and here's the serious part of the post] has been prompted by the arrival of Godwin Antwi and Miquel Roque. Antwi (17) is Ghanian, but has been playing with Real Zaragoza. Roque is also 17 and was snapped up from Lleida. They join Antonio Barragan and Jack Hobbs, who was told this week that he would have to learn Spanish if he ever hoped to understand what was going on...

The four teeange kick(ers) are to have their first outing this week in the reserves against Everton Reserves; who have recently adopted an obscure Scottish dialect as their chosen first team language.
