But then again like the retro look! 8)
On the bright side, in about 30 years time, there might be a nostalgia debate going on about whether we should have the ribbons back, as they were all good years in the Prem...

Although from your sign-in name, you might be 65 by then. :-)

At first glance I thought it was an ugly woman. Why the hell is that newsworthy?
If we're talking tattoo timing, this is funnier...

I hope to fck that is in crayon*. A typical 9 year old would do better than that.


* actually, bllx to it ... I hope it ;
a). is a tattoo
b). cost him a fortune
c). one day burns down so it doesn't represent anything at all
d). helps ruin his miserable life
Not advocating mass-murder as an entirely positive experience, of course, but it had its moments.

Oh it gets better still, Bobo. Feast your eyes.

I take it that any Tom, Dick or Harry can buy a tattoo gun and set up shop, because quite clearly that's what's happened here.

Whilst I understand the sentiment, I'm not sure how his tattoo affects this particular hope?! :)

I didn't find a way of fitting the proper wording into the format and ... hoped against hope that there wouldn't be some smart-arse who would point it out.

Though, to be honest, I DID expect it'd be bish who got there first.

Well, it was about 1947 when I first went to Burnden and we sure played in black and white then. Can't comment on 1874. My first pair of football socks were just like those "new" hooped ones.
Really? I'm gobsmacked.
Be as gobsmacked as you like buddy, but from 1946-1951 we wore black shorts, not navy blue, but black. :wink: ..........Check it here.

Have a lot of memories of that era Zulu, everything was black and white, scarves, (bought from Shannons on Great Moor Street) and footy socks etc (bought from any one of Len Tobutts, Albert Wards, George Bells or Harold Whiddett's (sp?). Oh, and those bloody great rattles. :mrgreen:
