Steve McClaren: Resigns as manager of Jamaica (P6)

Where is Jamacia?
Is it next door to Narnia?
Is there a Faun league ruled by an evil white witch?
Does Steve need to go through the wardrobe to get there?

I have no idea what that is meant to be.

A faun. A mythological creature (Greek I think) that was widely used in C S Lewis, the Lion the Witch and the Wardrobe. A Children’s book set in the land of Narnia, which is clearly located next door to Jamacia. (A country that STeve Mc now manages)
Hope that clears things up for everyone.

I am well aware that McLaren is the new manager of Jamaica, because, in case you’ve missed it, I’ve been posting in this thread.

Also, I know what The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe is, but I’ve never read it.

Look at the spelling in the title mate.

Jamacia (P5)​


Narnia
 
Knowing how Steve McClaren loves to immerse himself in the culture and language of the countries that he works in, I offer him a vocabulary list I compiled some years ago, inspired by hearing Althea and Donna's wonderful 'Uptown Top Ranking', with its glorious use of Jamaican patois ('See me in me heels an' ting..' etc), including:

'Panting' - a Jamaican cooking utensil
'Looting' - a Jamaican lavatory
'Shooting' - Jamaican footwear
'Sorting' - used by a Jamaican carpenter
'Writing' - Jamaican speciality bread
'Hating' - what cows eat in Jamaica
'Busting' - Jamaican public transport
'Lifting' - a Jamaican elevator
'Biting' - going to the shops in Jamaica
and so on and so on..

Could come in useful for Schteve?!

Excellent!

And I agree about. "Up Town Top Ranking". It was a great song. I heard it on Boom Radio just the other day.
