This is the best statement on the thread! I agree.
There is such negativity. This board is SO conservative.
I assume you would make the same statement if the lines were called, say, Churchill, Thatcher, Farage & Mosely lines.
What is wrong, objectively, with the names? "WoKeIsM" isn't enough.
2 need explaining to me ( Mildmay & Freedom) but once done so the first seems fair enough and quite nice touch.
Suffragete ( they even got the colours right!) & Windrush shouldn't need any comment beyond the slight silliness of the Windrush line not stopping in Brixton. ( it should also be noted that many on the MV Empire Windrush had served in the British armed forces in World War Two AND all had a right to reside in the UK via the 1948 British Nationality Act )
The Freedom line is odd but hopefully means something to people in that area and I think the Lionesses line is a little bit modern. They have done superbly well recently but if they ( like all sports teams) flop then what?
one person gets it! The level of historical ignorance and confusion on this thread is shocking.
no one has ever called it that have they? Surely such a line goes to Twickenham!
