What makes you think his backside is any prettier than the rest of him?

Dont apologise, I always thought he was monumentally overrated. He had one good season with us when Strachan kicked him up the arse, other than that he always seemed to think he was a hell of a lot better than he actually was. And I'd take Lambert as he is now over Beattie in his prime, in a heartbeat.

So did I tartan, think they might have moved along the high st. I've used them plenty of times, can recommend them.

Gasniers in Shirley used to be very good, dont know if theyre still there. Between sainsburys and the high st.

My mrs went on a weekend trip to Bourton on the water last year with my neighbour's mrs, they both came back raving about the place.

............and counting............

Will they never learn? And I cant believe that out of 15 replies, only 5 seemed to realise the OP was being ironic/sarcastic.

"has become", pmsl

My money's on option 3.

Funny as hell, lmfao @ utd, how does it feel lads, thats what happens to everyone you play week in and week out. I bet the ref even had the temerity to ignore fergie's instructions regarding injury time as well. I havent even seen it yet, and I'm laughing already. Cheered me up after the qpr debacle, that has.

Is that photoshopped, or is he really such a tw*t as to have actually bought it??

That's just not on, complain to the council.

Lets do just that.

How terribly vulgar.

I use them as well, all the time. It is better than the old days, but the whole point of the original OP isn't that "it used to be better" per se, but that it has fundamentally altered our relationship with the music we listen to, the way we perceive it and the value we put on it. I love the fact that if I suddenly remember a song I liked I can whistle it up in 10 seconds, copy it for nothing and play it whenever I want, but the guy's point is not that at all. As for the live music points that people have made, I agree entirely, and I go to plenty of local gigs, mainly at the Brook, Platform and Talking Heads. (not overly keen on the Joiners myself.) Also seen quite a few good bands at that place next to Goblets, in fact my nephew use to play there with his band, Furious Animation (look them up, they do some great stuff,) and his new band up in Mitcham, Stop Press who are also excellent.

Yes. Its for the greater good.

Thats one of the points the guy made in the rant I originally quoted, he can't go to a record store any longer as there aren't any left in his town of residence. I should also apologise for the thread title, which seems to have misled several posters. It isn't about "the death of music", or a rant about how music used to be so much better in his day etc etc, (in fact he only directly criticises Boyzone, Take That, Pop Idol and the Bay City Rollers.) It should more accurately have been titled "the death of caring about popular music due to its ready availability for free online at the click of a mouse, and the subsequent deterioration in the way we regard it and listen to it". I agree with him. Here's an example; I've been a huge fan of the Clash since hearing the first notes of their first eponymous album, and when the release of Combat Rock was announced I raced to the local record store and bought it. The NME had already previewed it as "their best album yet", and as their tastes tended to coincide with mine at the time I was expecting to enjoy it. When I got back to my Stoke on trent bedsit, the needle dropped onto the vinyl and...........what a pile of unlistenable sh*te. Didn't get it at all. Listened again, still hated it. Nowadays, that would have been it. 99p wasted on a 10 second download, just delete it to save hard drive space and forget about it, and dont bother with their next album either, the c*nts. BUT.... I'd invested something in acquiring it, ie going to the record store to order it before release day, going back to get it, and forking out about a fiver to buy it. So I kept it, but didn't listen to it again until one swelteringly hot summers afternoon, when I unexpectedly had the afternoon free due to a cancelled job. So I saw it among the albums on my shelf, turned the volume down low, (not the obvious thing to do with a Clash album,) kicked back on the sofabed and listened. Was absolutely blown away, and its still my favourite Clash album 30 years later. That would never happen now.

I'm still here in spirit.

Brilliant, I especially liked the "War" sketch, funny as hell.

Yep, not looking great for them.

Come on Citeh, work off the bile about losing to us with a thumping win at Villa

Theres only one way to find out.

I notice that twitchy's claiming some russian club wanted to buy Samba just a few weeks after qpr signed him, and at a higher fee than qpr paid. Goes without saying that I certainly believe him.

tbh hypo, its rare for me to post anything serious anywhere. I must have missed that brass eye episode.

Its all bad, and I'd like to see it all cured. But tbf, I'm happier that a cure might have been found first for kids born with it than adults who've blithely ignored over two decades of blanket advertising and information about safe sex and needle exchange programmes.
