Turned on this morning expecting Sawyer, what I did get can only be described as a wailing, Scottish banshee.

Banshees are Irish are they not?

Banshees are Irish are they not?

A Banshee is an Irish mythical spirit whose wailing foretells a death in a family, but equivalents in other folklore include the Scottish Bean Nighe and the Welsh Cyhyraeth, which also serve as death omens, and the Dullahan, a headless horseman, in Irish folklore.

Shebahn is half Irish.

Her sister plays for Eire

They are. A mythical spirit, whose mournful wailing is seen as a warning that a member of a specific family is about to die.

Funnily enough, her sister plays for the Irish women's team

Oops just saw @TinFoilHat post above.

It’s very nearly an anagram of Banshee…

Tricky one that. Her mum was English/Scottish and her dad was Belgian and they lived in Kent although I don't know if she identified as a banshee or not. Maybe MadEyedScreamer will know.

With that background no wonder she was Spellbound

Tuned in last night on the way home listening to Cundy and O'Hara....big mistake, I should know better. Every caller either Arsenal or Spurs, you wouldn't had known we'd played. So biased that pair of fuckwits towards the London clubs.
