Oh Louie louie Posted November 17, 2019 Report Share Posted November 17, 2019 Wonder if russel started supporting us in the 90s because of seal and agostina? Couldnt have been many aussies playing in europe then? He needs to pick a side. His film red obsession was about trying to obtain a green un in melbourne on a sunday morning perhaps?

How many times does someone have to watch a team before they are qualified as a fan of a team? How many Man Utd fans have actually seen them play (not on TV)? Not all of them that claim to be Man Utd fans I’d guess. I’d also hazard a guess that Trescothick has been fairly busy over the years? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've seen the likes of Chilcott, Joe Simms, Boldrick, the Scott Brothers many times at AG, not sure how busyTrescothick is in the winter recently either, my point is that I've never seen Trescothick at AG, of course that doesn't mean he doesn't go, also surprised we didn't get a mention in his autobiography seeing as he is/was president of some sort Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trescothick has been doing plenty of Sky work while England have been touring abroad during the winter over the years & I’d guess he’s also involved with the day to day stuff down at Somerset as he’s something big within the cricket club, I’m sure you’re aware that being involved in a cricket club doesn’t just involve doing stuff between March & September so he will be busy throughout the whole year.

Simon79 Posted November 17, 2019 Report Share Posted November 17, 2019 Seen Joe Simms a fair bit at the Gate. He was in the Premier seating during the Leeds game this season with what I presume where his friends. One of which was the the bloke who does the Dacia advert voice over & has had various other acting jobs. Was acting a bit of a billy big b***ocks imo, certainly enjoyed trying to wind up the City fans around him anyway. Unfortunately it worked! Should add, he’s a Leeds fan.

I'm not closed to modern music, Sleaford Mods for example are excellent, but that song lacked anything to lift it above the norm of an average garage band. I'd probably enjoy it if they played down my local but I'm surprised that they're successful nationally if that song is representative of their oeuvre. I would suggest trying some other clips then, live at KEXP and this year's Glastonbury. I see quite a few similarities between Sleaford Mods and Idles, their punk attitude and political views are closely aligned. I like Sleaford Mods but let's be honest, musically they have a bloke playing looped tracks on a laptop. Hardly reinventing the wheel either!

Oh Louie louie Posted November 18, 2019 Report Share Posted November 18, 2019 Id say Tony Robinson is the 1 ive seen the most, think he used to sit in the red seats in the dolman in the old days. His singing to the gas fans when he grabbed the mic was great! Then in the evening post i recall him saying id had a few ciders and i reacted. Proper fan.

I greatly enjoy the fact that they are anathema to a slightly ruddy cheeked, pork orientated sector of our society. All art is subjective of course, but there's nothing like boomers decrying shit they don't get and can't relate to, the selfish *******. Gammon and Boomers! Someone has swallowed the Urban Dictionary, haha! I agree with you about the band - but calling people ‘selfish *******’ for not agreeing with you is rubbish ... bet you don’t criticise ‘millennials’ in the same way ...
