Is that some sort of throwaway racist remark?
Let's keep it to football x
To clarify, theyak2, the term "chill winston" comes from Lock stock and 2 smoking barrels (cracking film by the way) and comes from a conversation between white two drugged up hippy cannabis growers. Nothing to do with colour (unless you want it to be of course)
I'd be more concerned about the earlier comment that Scully identifies as a "winger". Honestly, what is with these people innit and self identifying etc etc. (Id do a wink emoji if I knew what it looked like)
Actually Lawrence it was first used by Lenny Henry in his sitcom in the early 80"s telling his imaginary friend 'Delbert Watkins to 'chill Winston'. This since has been hailed by Lennie himself as racist to satisfy the original BBC audience.
Lock stock just used it as a line!
So everything to do with colour and clichés Lawrence!!!
Fair enough Yak. Forgot that but now you say it I do remember that.
