Still think, all things considered, that he'd have swapped that for a relegation dogfight. If you don't buy a ticket an all that....doubt when he was strolling up to the spot he thought to himself "I could miss this penalty to decide the fate of a European Cup final, I don't belong here, I should h...

The first four picks have been: Pele (understandable) Maradona (ditto) Messi (?????) and Zidane There's one more person to choose before I get my first crack at it... I'm thinking I will snaffle Beckenbauer - there's loads of talent in wingers and forwards, but less genuine world-class cover at the...

RHCP definitely have lasted long than Nirvana because they replaced/swapped their deceased/hooked members when heroin called time. What an odd thing to say. that was why i was whistling awkwardly :mrgreen: nirvana would have a tricky time to still be going. that said all the best chili's stuff in m...

Can't really count sales as influence though Worthy, lest folk say SClub7 or somesuch shite are, er, worthy. (And I speak as a Beatles fan.) Influence is an almost impossible thing to measure. Dare say SClub7 were infleuntial in their own genre and own way. IMO Dylan was a million times more influe...

Rangers could lose the league title that a few weeks back they looked bang on to win. Thats what happens with all those extra games in Europe. Wonder how many Rangers fans would settle for the UEFA cup final but failure in the league? Lessons to be taken from this. Swap your first European final in...

Thats not quite true FD. Newer models do still die, but nowhere near to the same rate as the older models. New models (and this is date dependent, so just buying an elite doesn't guarantee it) have new heat pipe construction. Additionally they have a new type of CPU which is supposedly better in he...

Just bought a new HD telly, and lookin to hook it up to my 360 - allegedly some of the older consoles don't have the HD cable slot, and mine appears to be one of these - anyone had this problem and found a work-around? Don't get confused by all this HD jargon Batman. EVERY 360 is HD compatible, you...

I ask the question in all naivety: What's so bad about Mick Hucknell? I know little about him exept for his recordings, some of which I quite like. Where's the apparent hatred come from, or shouldn't I ask? The guys a disgusting creep and a womaniser. He will chat up owt in a dress and rather than ...

I can't remember who was headlining but we were playing at UMIST in Dec 77 and one of the support bands on with us was a band called Frantic Elevators. A tw*t for a lead singer . His name? Mick Hucknall. Thats what you meant isn't it? He was on Later with JH last week. Holding back the years? I'm h...

Sppose plenty on here hate Chris Moyles but I quite like him, so its all personal opinion and choice. Blimey. That nails that. What on earth do you find entertaining about Moyles? I always get the impression that he appeals only to those that were either the sycophantic, toadying, hangers-on of the...

I also think saying "for seuth" and using long words doesn't make you clever or funny. You may be reading too many papers mate, I've listened to over 100 of his radio shows over 3 years and have NEVER heard him say "for seuth" once. Not heard it on his standup either. Don't think "dinkle" can be cl...

The guys a complete tw*t. Nuff said. Well argued. Nowt else to say on it really. I can't stand him. I think his whole " I've got an addictive personality so its not my fault" fake persona is fooking embarrassing.

I'm with Hobo. The legal system in this country(and indeed any) is just another trade through which to make money . Theres no incentive for any organisation to self-regulate where a confusing system oils the wheels of commerce. C'est la vie. Right and I imagine that whatever you do, is done for fre...

But who pays for all the malarky of the appeal and it's subsequent processing Mummy? Well, the obvious answer in most cases is the state, which, of course, means taxpayers, Tango. Questions of money are very difficult in individual cases - the fact is that it is important to have a good criminal ju...
