Apparently nesh means someone delicate , weak , and feeble .

 

Beat me to it Gooders

 

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nesh#:~:text=The word comes from Old,typically meaning damp or foolish.

 

Haven't heard nesh used in the context of delicate etc. Always as an aiternative to nithering, though, when ever so slightly warmer.

 

Northern team..
beat russian team at Wembley...

 

Exactly, more a description of the weather / warmth / dampness at the time. Instead of going a long Shakespearean southern dialogue regarding the appalling weather and how cold wet and miserable it was you'd just say "its a bit nesh " .... everyone knew what you meant , well , North of Leicester anyroad

Shouldn't that read "American team beat Russian team"?

 

Or Americans who own a club they couldn’t give two tuppenny *****s for beat a team who is owned by someone who loves the club, supports the club, did more for the NHS workers during covid than any other club, supported the homeless during lockdown, paid ever employee at Chelsea even the stewards full pay all the way through the pandemic

 

Sounds like a tax avoidance scheme to me!

 

Do you really think he bought chelsea to make money or avoid paying tax, but he should denounce putin and what he is doing in Ukrain

 

I grew up in Leeds and don’t remember using the word nesh. Very popular in Doncaster though but they’re a good 40 miles south.

 

Yeah, she's a Barnsley lass.
