  1. nope... I have a promo copy sitting on my desk :)

    I used to run a record label so I have some natty contacts...

    Nice. Very jealous. Whats the new album like? Heard it is going to be a return to the old days. But I can't see anything eclipsing 100 broken windows, my all time fav album. From the 2 songs I have heard, it seems to be more like the remote part, which is probably my least favourable of all the idlewild albums. In saying that, I do think American/English is the best song they have produced.

  2. A Ghost In The Arcade - Idlewild

    hhmm since this album is not out yet, you must have illegally downloaded it. tut tut.

    I'm quite sad in the respect that I don't download stuff, I love the band idlewild, but will wait until the album comes out before I hear there new stuff, won't be downloading anything. Only heard no emotion and If it takes you home due to air play and mtv2

  3. Going to watch Swindon away at Peterboro tomorrow. Worst roads in the world, covered in speed camera's which face you. Not nice as I won't get home till 1 or 2am and up for work at 5am.

    No falling asleep at the wheel for me. Gave it a miss, couldn't face idea of 3 hours sleep.

    Missed Swindon score a 88th min equaliser with the managers son, Blair Sturrock on target

  4. Bates does worry me, but the debt management at Leeds has improved.

    Sorry about the managers, I presume you follow Swindon Town down there?

    Yeah, got a season ticket down here. Go to most away games too. Expensive though, £340 for season ticket for league2 (Div 4) football. Standard of football is crap too. I don't blame Hoddle (leaving for Chelsea) and Wise (Leeds), two big clubs. Just hate Bates

    I care more about the Scotland national side then my club team though (even though I have lived in England for 21 of my 26 years and have a English accent). I always put country 1st. Try and make the odd Aberdeen game here and there. Looking at moving to Stirlingshire in the summer. So may start watching Stenny lol

  5. Swindon get relegated a two divisions (ok our incident was for more financial problems), Spurs get kicked out the FA cup then re-enstated )before Everton thump them 4-1 in FA Cup semi's, Amokachi scoring twice. Then beat Man Utd 1-0 in final), Leeds fined a tiny £1000 and now Bury kicked out the cup.

    Leeds and more so Ken Bates gets away with murder, I hate the c**t. Stole 2 managers off Swindon (Hoddle&Wise) and wanted to introudce moats and electric fencing to football (supposedly in the 80's).

  6. Texting some mates yesterday who wants to watch idlewild in march as i am booking tickets. 2 replied and I bought 1 extra assuming 4 would be plenty as not many like them. Tonight I have had a load of calls and texts with people saying they will go now. I have since sold my last ticket and now the rest are moaning as they want to go and are incapable of booking a ticket themselves on line. Grrr

  8. Ken Bates is a c*nt. After trying to demote us to the 3rd division

    For those not old enough. In 90 (I think), Swindon got promoted to top division, but financial irregualities (spelling). Bates behind a campaign, Swindon then as punishment got relegated 2 divisions. Other Clubs more recently got far more lienent punishments.
