  1. Aye. The review is like a parody of The Guardian.
  2. Shearer definitely not being a hypocrite there
  3. What awful news. Hope they’ve caught it in time
  4. Been raving in Digbeth years ago. It was a bit scary then too
  5. To be fair to him, he was/is a fairly moderate social democrat who was eviscerated for the way he ate a bacon sandwich and was portrayed by most of the media as being just to the left of Leon Trotsky. Being yourself is probably difficult against that backdrop and he inherited the leadership at bad time too
  6. Yeah. The original is right up there in my favourite all-time films, so I watched 2049 expecting to be disappointed. But I thought it was great. There’s a miniseries being developed for Prime too. I hope it’s just one series if it happens though
  7. First gig I ever went to was Musical Youth. At what’s now Eldon Leisure (Eldon ‘Rec’ as was?). Metro Radio roadshow on first and I got Paddy McDee’s autograph Actually Pass The Dutchie (which I know is a sort of cover) sounds pretty fucking good after all these years. And nowt like the sort of cheesy reggae I’d kind of categorised as in my mind.
  8. No good deed goes unpunished, mate. Let him sort his own shit out in future
  9. If they ask for your top 5 reasons Taylor is your favourite ever player for the Toon United Soccer Team: 1) The celebration when he scored that crucial last minute goal against Cardiff 2) Getting up and walking off unassisted after a sniper shot him v Aston Villa 3) Copying Kevin Nolan copying the movements of the opposition goalkeeper 4) Any number of goal line clearances when he was behind the goalkeeper instead of marking his man 5) Showing he never forgot where he came from by still getting a £5 haircut throughout his career
  10. I love that novel. Absolutely mental
  11. Did we ever get an update on how this day (and night) panned out btw?
  12. @spongebob toonpants and @PaddockLad I’m not sure if they cover this episode on Chart Music (only about 30 episodes in) but the TOTP from 23/09/1982, currently available on iPlayer, is a good one.
  13. I couldn’t cope if they sold us and bought Liverpool. I’ve only just gotten over the time they ditched us to buy Inter Milan
  14. Nicely sums up pretty much everything that’s wrong with the media in relation to politics in this country. I do think Labour have made a few PR gaffes and have failed to communicate the reasons behind their decision making on a few occasions. But they’re inexperienced and look what they’re going up against
