I am aware of that.
which made it more surprising when they took it so badly.

I have fond memories of being sat huddled near the door to a pub as England beat Wales 50:10 with the crowd in the pub roaring "always shit on the English side of the bridge" and "I'd rather wear a turban than a rose"

the "rather wear a turban than a rose" is particularly offensive because it is not only anti-english,
but it implies (or infers?) that there is something inherently wrong with being sikh as well.

It implies.
The person hearing it infers.
