Title inspired by the local warcry of Blades - they sing Sean Bean Nation to the tune of Zombie Nation.
This is just to say that if any fangirls (or boys) are in the vicinity of Westminster today you might be able to meet our hero: Sean Bean Leads Football Protest ![]()

As much as I would love United to stay in the Premiership I don't think even Sean Bean can pull this one off
"Not with ten thousand men could you do this, it is folly." Nice to see he cares such much about his team though.

Funny you said that because when you first mentioned him kicking up a fuss about it I could just imagine him in his full Boromir outfit leading a load of Blades fans and shouting "For Sheff United! For Sheff United! For Sheff United!!"

![]() Good one. I love Sean Bean, but I think there are things in this world more important for him to rally over. All due respect...as he did portray my favorite character!

I can't stop picturing the Seven Hills of Sheffield as Gondor, a city in turmoil, half of which is united behind Sean/Boromir against the threat of the evil West Ham, AKA Mordor.
![]() Though I will not be happy if they turn Bramall Lane into the Pelennor Fields as there are enough chavs around to deal with without having ruddy oversized war elephants and ugly Orcs all over the shop.

As a neutral American (it still mystifies me how Man United continuously loses to West Ham, regardless of ranking), I find this whole argument to be hilarious: two of my best friends are West Ham fans because Elijah Wood was in Green Street Hooligans.
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0385002/ My firm opinion? Since Frodo has already run off to do a film about his favorite football team, perhaps Boromir should do the same. Regardless of artistic licence... though Boromir standing atop the battlements of Osgiliath dressed in the Sheffield colours is an entertaining thought.

![]() Honestly though, I have (surprise) nothing but praise to say of Sean Bean's efforts here. He's always been a passionate and devoted Sheffield fan, I can't imagine anyone else leading the charge in this fight than Tolkien's very own Boromir. What's funny is when I read this I mean he even says things that I imagine Boromir saying: Quote:
