Is Martin Anti-English ?

Options
His picture is on the homepage is dressed up for almost any festival day or special occasion. (Christmas, St Patricks Day, Easter, during World Cups, Halloween, you name it), but Never St Georges Day !

    A valid point- not sure that it is anti-english but it does bug me that every other patron saint gets coverage through many media outlets, not just this website, but St george can go whistle!!!

    But never late for St Paddy's Day, or just plan in advance? Second year running then;)

    And if I remember correctly, it never got up at all last year. Must all have booked the day off.......

    Hi folks,

    Am glad to tell you England hasn't taken a back seat, the logo has been ready for weeks as it is every year, and waiting to appear as soon as the techie team get into work.

    Can I ask WHY anyone wants to "celebrate" St George's day, other than that everyone else has their celebration?

    NB: I am English, but don't need a website logo to remind me or tell me to celebrate the fact.
    Not even wrong

    I don't particularly want to Celebrate it, (think St Patricks day is pretty vulgar these days), but I do want to Mark it in some small way.

    Please remember that we start the Free Money Tips Email from Tuesday night so the tech guys have a lot of work on aside from the logo. It's up now though.
