When I used to go to Belfast as a kid a game I'd play was to guess whether people you passed on the street were a Taig or a Prod.

In a similar spirit, I give you the Football Brexit guessing game.

Off the top of my head we so far have:

Confirmed Brexiteers:
Peter Shilton
Chris Waddle (NO DEAL!)

I think Sol Campbell is an Uncle Brexit. I'm sure I also reaad that David James is pro-Brexit too, though I would have had him down as a Remainer. Perhaps he feels he has to live up to his "Calamity" nickname.

Confirmed Remainers: 
Gary Lineker

I think it's pretty obvious Gareth Southgate was a Remainer too athough he hasn't said it specifically.

Here's some guesses:

Brexit lovers:
Terry Butcher
Stuart Pearce
David Batty
Andy Gray
Dennis Wise
Sean Dyche
Bryan Robson
Peter Beardsley
Lee Bowyer
Jonathan Woodgate

Brexit haters:
Gary Neville
Brian McClair
Mark Lawrenson
David Beckham
Jamie Carragher
Trevor Steven
Big Neville Southall
Peter Reid
Paul Elliott
Pat Nevin

Giorgio Chiellini

What makes you say Woodgate is a brexiteer?

And how did you know whether you were right or not?

Did you run after them and ask?

Or did you only play* it on the Shankill and the Falls?



* - Not much of a game that

Gazza says he doesn't mind Brexit or Remain, just whichever has the best tits, man.

Wayne Rooney said he’s in favour of brexit, unless he has a lie in, in which case he just goes for an early lunch

I always ran after the ones I thought were Taigs to check. I was usually right but one occasion I misjudged it and ended up narrowly escaping the angry hun onto a Citybus. However the bus was set on fire and burned out before it reached the second stop, so I'd probably have been better off taking my beating.

I usually played the game in and around the Castle Court centre on the days when there were no bomb threats, which would have been rare enough, from memory. 

Playing it on the Falls and the Shankill would have sort of defeated the purpose.

Some more guesses:

HARD Brexiteers:
Tony Pulis
Alan Pardew
Anybody who has ever played for Stoke

Remainers: 
John Col-hoon (ex Heart of Midlothian) - the supermarket value Pat Nevin

Someone asked Eric Dier and he replied, 
"Er, sorry, what was the question again, I lost concentration."

Well he is utterly unqualified to hold a position, isn't he...

Vinnie Jones doesn't like immigrants and says England is no longer a European country due to them.

However I can't find any articles telling us whether or not he supports Brexit, so it would be crazy to make any assumptions.


I will make a guess about former Hearts player Andrew Driver though. 

HARD, HARD, HARD Brexit.

Frank 'Tory boy' Lampard- Brexiteer
Steve Perryman- Remain
The ghost of Emlyn Hughes- Brexit
The ghost of Brian Clough- Brexit (Dennis Skinner variety)
Mick McCarthy (possibly same)
Chris Hughton- remain
