  1. Watch us wreck the mic Watch us wreck the mic Watch us wreck the mic…..Sykes
  2. That doesn’t explain why Palmer had one sung on his debut from memory! ??
  3. Reminds me of the scene in The Office Xmas special where Gareth admits he bought multiple copies of David Brent’s single (if you don’t know me by now) for friends but they are still in his garage
  4. They really struggled last season and I can’t see Frank being the man to sort things out either, no track record at all of doing this, he will be long gone my Xmas is my prediction!
  5. Agree, a tight rhythm section is key, the bass and drums have to be both locked in tight and consistent, however a terrible singer or lead guitarist can ruin any band! My band has been going for 25 years or so now, same line up, so It’s almost second nature really, so when an inevitable mistake happens, we can usually carry on through!
  6. Not on his current form! Google Bon Jovi’s voice 2022! Ouch
  7. I’m on it, I’d actually booked some gigs through him previously, but we haven’t gigged much last couple of years for obvious reasons so have been out of the loop. Loading of gear is the worst bit of being in a band, the worst was playing a wedding on the SS Great Britain, the room we were in meant we had to walk the length of the boat first then go through little doors, up some tiny steps and then walk the length of the boat again! No joke with a heavy 100w Orange valve amp!
  8. I was expecting Cantona, the class of 92, Rooney and RVP maybe for my money, I’ve been shortchanged! ?
  9. I’m not the singer unfortunately (as he’s great) but the guy playing guitar!
  10. Absolutely, home advantage needs to be built up, for example free kicks, home players will use familiar sight lines to help (even if sublimely), let alone the basics of match day ie changing rooms
  11. My bands called Levi Valentino, we’ve been going since 1997 same line up! https://fb.watch/es5ATuEvgF/
  12. Thanks, sorry who is Jerry is he on here?
  13. Hi, does anyone have a contact for who books bands to play in the fanzone before games? Thanks
  14. Would you rather they downplayed it and reminded everyone at home that womens football isn’t as popular? Isn’t this an inferiority complex?
  15. You could say that about almost every other sport, does that mean none of them matter?
  16. My 3 week old daughter is demonstrating the very definition of ‘squeaky bum time’ with 3 poos since extra time started!
  17. What blows my mind is that this happened at a meaningless pre season friendly!
  18. @Ben6781 lost their collection of City memorabilia recently so I’m sure they would be interested
  19. https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0887617702001518#:~:text=The average number of headings,six per player per game. I found this interesting study, admittedly from 2003, which says: During a soccer game all players are likely to head the ball eventually, though with varying degrees of skill, frequency, and neurologic outcome. While statistics on heading frequency for amateur soccer players are currently being developed, the heading practices of professional athletes have been examined. Tysvaer and Storli (1981) observed the total number of headings in 10 first division games, six English games and four international games. The average number of headings for all players was 111, that is, an average of six per player per game. If one plays 300 top division games, a player may expect to receive at least 2,000 lifetime head blows (Tysvaer & Storli, 1981; consider also that this estimate does not include any practice headings). This is a significant number of potential brain insults, and given the knowledge accrued regarding varying risks due to heading technique, it is imperative that athletes be sufficiently skilled in proper techniques, possibly reduce the frequency of heading, and obtain the best possible knowledge about heading and cognitive function. The conclusion was: Players with the highest lifetime estimates of heading had poorer scores on scales measuring attention, concentration, cognitive flexibility and general intellectual functioning. As is happening in rugby currently, I can see lawsuits from ex players with health issues they are attributing to heading the ball, which will lead to a change in the rules or safety equipment, if lawsuits successful
  20. You’d get a lot more fouls I think as defenders get beaten by the high ball over the top, as they can’t head it, and end up chasing the attacker and taking him down
