Hi folks,

I'm a newbie here so feel free to tell me caption competitions aren't what you need.

If so, then maybe 'explain the photo' is more your style. Think Round 1 of an extremely irritating panel show.

Interesting guess. Thanks for that little bit of education!

Surprised there were no guesses or captions about fat cats and rats.

But no, I went to the Lunas Tournament, which happens every 3 years in the woods north of Antwerp, where my mates from Lunatics FC (Ekeren, Belgium) host a footy tournament as part of our grass-roots AntiFa footy network.

On Saturday night there was a cabaret show and my team from Leeds performed a cabaret in which a 'fat cat' (played by yours truly - that#s a prosthetic pillow, not my real gut) boasted about stealing the hearts out of footy fans and selling them back to people for a profit. In fact I even ripped fake hearts out of 3 of my fellow performers (which were cunningly concealed behind their footy scarves), with mucho fake blood spilt.

Meanwhile, behind me, the fans made banners of 4 clubs who are putting the heart back into football (suposedly making them live on stage behind me with spraycans, etc., but in fact already prepared) ...

... and then they ripped the fat cat's own 'heart' out with mucho fake blood and daubed that on the banners! Finally, they presented the banners to teams at the tournament, including the St. Pauli women's team who were there, so that banner is now somewhere in Hamburg !!

It was all done to the tune of 'When Johnny Comes marching Home', so it was easy to weave in a "Forza ! Forza ! Forza St. Pauli !" verse.
