The Jam - Time For Truth

Tim Hardin - Lady Came From Baltimore

There’s very little sectarian trouble or arrests anywhere in Scotland in professional football unless the old firm are involved in it Gav and they are as bad as each other. I’ve been on just about every other SPL and championship ground in my 30 years up here to watch games not involving Rangers or Celtic and almost without exception - nowt. Hearts and Hibs maybe being those exceptions. But it’s certainly not widespread. ‘Junior’ (non league) football - yeah there’s a problem there but even then it’s linked to their old firm allegiances.

Two in particular

I think he’s out for the whole of April Chaddy

I got offered a ticket for last night Gav, but I was more interested in watching the Masters tbh. The thing that puts me off Ibrox is the sectarian bile that is sadly still prevalent.

Even more fucking naughty then 🙂

Yasir worded his tweet about an apology to make it look like the Trust had retracted what they said. Very fucking naughty of him, that.

It was said. 100%

I don't think I can recall ever seeing anyone hit two worldie free kicks in one game before. And to do it in a game of that magnitude as well. Bravo.

Fleet Foxes - The Third of May

Bang on the money Mike

He was already out of the shadows was the point. And I’m not taking anything away from what prompted that ridiculous club video.

Who said it was all WATR? It’s not a fucking competition, but I think only fair to give some credit where it’s due. It is an irrefutable fact that his ‘coming out of the shadows’ was when he was pressured into attending a meeting with WATR where they demanded direct contact with the owners.

Clem and Rick dying just a few weeks apart. There’ll be thunder up there tonight 🔥💪🏻❤️

Martha and the Muffins - Echo Beach

Paul Weller - All Good Books

I hope they give him a whole heap of media training as he’s said some pretty dumb things in the past.

When is Jimmy fit?

I realise that it is de rigueur to bash WATR at the moment but they have been instrumental in this shift. The pressure WATR put on him to come out of the shadows has been relentless for about 18 months now. And it finally paid off.

Ocean Colour Scene - Up On The Downside

Mine’s just finished 😂😂

The Flying Pickets - Only You

Five of us went to Liverpool without tickets and we each had a self-imposed £50 limit to hopefully buy one off a tout outside the ground. First few touts we approached were looking for £100+for theirs and we were about to give up the ghost and watch it in the pub when I managed to bag two together for £120 (I'm so glad I broke my financial promise!). So me and my best mate Paddy took the tickets and the other three went off to the pub. The seats were in the main stand and when I looked closely at mine I realised why they were a bit cheaper. They were complimentary tickets so the tout's £120 was total profit! Anyway we took our seats, nervous as hell, to find we were right next to the directors box. We didn't have colours on, though I did see a couple of other Rovers fans quite close to us who did, and nobody bothered them. Mark Wright, the injured Liverpool captain, was sat next to me so I guess this was the part of the stand they used for club employees. I have often wondered whether it was a player those touts got their tickets from. As far as the game goes, I don't really remember too much about it other than the goals and a couple of misses by the SAS at the Kop end in the second half. It became really difficult to concentrate on the game in front of us, particularly when both games were sitting at 1-1. Paddy had a little transistor radio to his ear and I was more interested in watching his reactions than I was in the game. Anyway when the final whistle went at the Boleyn Ground he literally threw his radio into the air and started hugging me. On the pitch, I could see that Henning Berg and Colin Hendry were doing the same- and the game was still being played around them! As others have said, Scousers were congratulating us and they were also happy that their own team had won. I might be wrong about this but I'm pretty sure that most of the Liverpool fans stayed to see the trophy being presented. What a time to be a Rover! We met our other three friends in the pub afterwards and it was a proper party! On the way back there was a big banner draped over a property just off the M61 which said "CONGRATULATIONS ROVERS, FROM BWFC FANS", which was unexpected. And we sang 'Glad All Over' for good measure (if you know, you know). When we got back to Blackburn, the scenes outside Ewood Park were incredible, and Rovers fans were cheering the returning supporters as though we were the players! Of the five of us who went that day (and we were all around the age of 30 at the time) two aren't with us any more sadly, including Paddy. We've seen things those Dingle bastards will never see. Venkys Out!

You weren't two months premature by any chance were you?
