  1. You were very restrained innot burning the whole building to the ground
  2. We’ll be doing a fair bit of business towards the end of the window whether or not we have a new manager I’d expect.
  3. Too many Diddy clubs, that's the problem. An Edinburgh United could challenge for the league and a Dundee City would do better than two yo yos from a small city. Even Falkirk has two teams! One team per city and regional teams for Fife, Lanarkshire, Forth Valley etc. And colts in the proper league. All with big out of town stadia with ample parking. Scottish football needs to modernise and not keep looking back.
  4. Ignoring emails. If it's important, they'll ask again.
  5. Fair cop. I was sure i'd seen that as a fact somewhere. It was the biggest seller of 1967, which i may have seen and misremembered. It was still dung though
  6. I say "i apologise" all the time at work. It's not a substitute for "I'm sorry" because i'm not fucking sorry. It means "i acknowledge that i'm in the wrong here, but i really don't care."
  7. As support for the quad theory, there's a Go Outdoors near us which backs onto a railway track. A couple of local ne"erdowells hatched a brilliant plan to burgle it and escape along the railway track on their quad bikes. The budding Lex Luthors managed to get a load of stuff out of the shop and their brilliant plan only came unstuck when they were killed by an intercity 125.
  8. Seems to be any song but speeded up to sound like the chipmunks, using the morontech of the Tiktok.
  9. Feels a bit exclusionary for domestic women that it’s only the international ones that get a day. Typical woke nonsense
  10. Something must have happened in the last 24 hours for him to overtake Wilder. Reporting the betting odds is probably a fair sign of not having more of an idea than the average punter.
  11. I've been very much enjoying the big beat style stylings (i believe it's called glitch nowadays) of Krafty Kuts and OPIOU, and I think Little Simz has many moments of absolute genius. Finding Sleaford Mods very entertaining and I'm very much "down" with some of the more off piste Hip Hop (Krum, Bruiser Wolf and a bit more populust, Madlib). Oh and Sampa the Great. There's a load of bits of really exciting stuff in modern funk (eg Thundercat) and afrobeat. Folk seems quite vibrant at the moment too. There really is no need to listen to the musical blamange that is Harry Styles unless you also have a ten year old that puts his earfluff on in the car. Still rather that than the eldest's pretendy gangster twats.
  12. In 1992 headliners included Lou Reed and Van Morrison, with (Tom Jones as a special guest) who were as current then as GnR are now. Not sure Glastonbury has been at the cutting edge for a while. The other headliner IIRC was Carter the Unstoppable Sex Machine. They were a decent and then current band. I strongly suspect that your experience in subjective and you-centric. My subjective cut off for decent stuff is about ten years earlier but recently i've been getting excited about new music again. Must be the mid life crisis.
  13. For the sake of 5 years, no, i won't. I'll defend my arbitrary, subjective and entirely spurious argument to the death.
  14. Any artists, albums, songs, genres etc that you missed out on first time around that's exciting you now? Can were largely before my time but i seem to have missed them out of the "old" music i like until last week. God knows why, what i've heard so far has been fantastic and very varied. Any Can fans got any recommendations? Not as far back and totally different genre, but i highly recommend Krum's 2017 album Blue Eyed Devil to anyone who likes their Hip Hop a bit kooky.
  15. Good to know. I'd imagine that cost will be a big driver in getting GPs to advise cutting back on pies first before they prescribe anything. I hear the potential (known) side effects are minimal so i guess this can only be a good thing overall.
  16. When you stumble upon a star, makes no difference who you are...
  17. "Manufactured" music has been around since recordings were available. Plenty of the charts in "the golden ages" was utter bilge from music farms, like Larry Parnes' stable. No different to Simon Cowell and his ilk now. Motown may have put out a few belters but they also put out Rockin Robin and a whole slew of mediocrity from the likes of the temptations. Even before that the likes of Louis Armstrong was frowned on by serious Jazz types for doing commercial stuff. The biggest selling single in the UK in the sixties- Beatles? Stones? Nope, Please Release Me. Arguably music was more manufactured before the 80s when the punk/ indie attitude to ignoring record labels kicked in.
  18. Presumably under contract and won't be sold to the first club to bid six figures. If he goes for £5m and we keep half we could get almost a whole team of Jayden Richardsons for that.
  19. As a fat c**t who would probably benefit from this, i would hope it will be a last resort and not given out in lieu of making an effort.
  20. I'm sorry, i thought you said that criticising the Tories was "Rank Hipocrisy". But you'd have to be a total fanny to say that.
