Young Luke Campbell through to the semi-finals in the Bantamweight class at the McDolympics, and guaranteed a medal.
That's Luke Campbell of the St. Paul's Boxing Club in Hull.

Or, as Junk food salesman Lineker put it, "the young Scot".
Or, as the BBC sport website had it, Luke Campbell of Liverpool.
Or, as someone else claimed, Luke Campbell of the St. Paul's Club, Great Yarmouth.

The Liverpool gaffe has since disappeared from the BBC website, and Lineker reckons the young fellow has "a Hull of a chance" of winning gold. So, one assumes, these people have heard of Kingston upon Hull, just don't like to mention it.

Perfect Jemmy. Never mind my point is valid. Just attack, rebiuke, assail, castigate, insult, mock and deride. You do,it so well, why do,otherwise.

Surely your approach will achieve all that you desire. Death to the opposition! Rightttttt Jemmy.
