Die Yeung! Betting Baron Continues With Porn Barons' Little Funeral Earner
Cremated remains of the deceased interred at St Andrew’s Stadium in the presence of family and friends: £60
Hire of the club flag to drape over the coffin: £10
Inscribed memorial brick placed at St Andrew's Stadium: £50

And, who would want anything more before being laid to rest than the final option -
Funeral cortege pause at the club grounds at St Andrew’s Stadium: no charge

Sullivan and Gold probably raid the graves as part of their feud with the Billionaire Betting Barber.
Who Are You?
Undoubtedly the most postmodern of football chants.
But.
'Tis not even modernist.
Just as every single human being must learn the current pseudo-utterance phrase today, so it was 170 years ago when this chant first appeared in London.
Following on from the equally memorable "Quoz" and "Oh! What a shocking bad hat!", "Who are you" spread through the mire like wildfire.
Charles Mackay: "The phrase was uttered quickly, and with a sharp sound upon the first and last words, leaving the middle one little more than an aspiration."

The Katyń issue between the two countries is like a hugely inflated Bloody Sunday.
The Katyń movie was made under the patronage of Lech Kaczyński.
That he and a current selection of the Polish 'elite' were taken out/died in April 10th's aircrash is a thoroughly Putinesque Politkovskaya sort of neohyperreality.
That the volcanic plume meant that none of the world 'elite' were able to attend the funerals is only to be fated.
