Yorkshire And Lancashire Come Together....
1 Answers
a Southerner – possibly from = Chipping Norton – had the temerity to attend a cricket match between Yorkshire and Lancashire at the hallowed Headingley ground.
When he applauded a particularly fine off-drive, he called out: “Fine shot sir, well played.” He sat back to see that the two men on either side of him – one a Yorkshireman, the other a Lancastrian – were staring at him in amazement.
Because no man in the north would ever use such an expression up North, they immediately demanded to know where he came from.
When he said Chipping Norton (or Guildford, or some other whippet-free zone), they turned on him. “This is Yorkshire versus Lancashire – so stop the daft clapping, yer stoopid booger, it’s nowt to do with thee.”
