  1. The two Wigan CDS, there a few on em that aren't Wigan spins IMO
  2. I believe we do have the players to win a tournament if only we were set up right. Foden the best player Pep has ever worked with, any other team would build their team around him and Bellingham. Southgate has been pretty poor with his use of substitutes and often in the past not even using them. He seems to use his subs juts to give players minutes and changing like for like. There is no other plan (plan B) with him, he has rarely changed a match with his use of subs. When we have got the ball to the likes of Foden and Bellingham they have been the best players by far. Against France we only seemed to go down the right and missed the midfield out far too much. Bellingham needs the players round him who will allow him to play. Southgate has created a great spirit in the camp, more or less a club spirit but tactically he is still lacking. We still have that English mentality of a lump at the back and up front, Kane for me not the right player in a three, he is rarely in position. Our press is at times half hearted, our movement pretty poor and the transition from defence to attack far too slow with our four or five at the back content to play it between themselves which gives the opposition plenty of time to get into shape and defend, even Kane hangs on to the ball far too long and he wonders why he is fouled so much.
  3. Which record?
  4. I put one number 10 in third with one from Brazil above him
  5. You can get a copy on Soul Junction for just over a tenner on Discogs, don't know if Dave has any copies left @Louise
  6. It was payed in the 80s too, Stafford for Keb. I had a copy 88 and played it all over.
  7. Have you watched the documentary onn BBC iPlayer? simply called Messi. Fascinating, he does things with the ball at 9 or 10 that adults can't do.
  8. He's the greatest ever for me now mate. Like you say the attention paid to him by the opposition is usually three or four players and still he is leaving them bewildered. For a 35 year old he still has that ability to get away form the attention, his ability to slow the defender down then speed away simply amazing to watch. To go round and through 3 or 4 players, there is no one like him and that includes Mbappe. Has he played every minute so far? I don't recall him being subbed? Pretty amazing at his age. Like youn say his footballing brain is on another level compared to others, he is three steps ahead at least and he makes it all look simple. Definitely player of the tournament so far.
  9. Bleaklow. There are over 160 crash sites in the Peak District.
  10. Sounds nothing like a Levine production, has none of his traits in it.
  11. Messi is almost certainly the best ever IMO. Definitely a penalty too. It's ok Neville saying what could the keeper do, the keepers actions caused a foul. Anywhere else on the pitch by any other player and it would have been a foul. How the attacker was supposed to avoid him I'm not sure. Shame for Modric mind, one of the greatest ever, but Croatia were pretty poor.

  13. Look forward these, Trevor Nelson’s Lamont one in particular. Sure I have the Marvin show on a video somewhere?
  14. Two BBC Documentaries over Christmas and New Year. When Tina Turner came to the UK on Christmas Day and then on New Years Day wehn Motown came to the UK. BBC Two has revealed two documentaries on legendary singer Tina Turner and how Motown came to the UK in time for Christmas. When Tina Turner Came To Britain will feature previously unheard interviews with the icon and will tell the story of her relationship with the UK when it airs on Christmas Day. Speaking about the upcoming documentary, Turner said: “The love, energy and support I’ve had from Britain over the years has been amazing. I couldn’t have enjoyed the career I’ve had without my time spent in the UK and collaborations with amazing British songwriters, musicians and producers. From my very first visit to London in 1966, I always enjoyed visiting Britain and performing for fans across the country – it felt like my second home.” The documentary will also feature contributions from those who have worked with Tina over the years, including Heaven 17’s Gregory and Martyn Ware, Skunk Anansie’s Skin and former Strictly Come Dancing judge Arlene Phillips, who choreographed the music video to Private Dancer. It will begin with Turner's first visit to the UK when she supported Rolling Stones on tour in 1966. The film will span more than five decades, with footage of her attending the world premiere of Tina: The Musical in London in 2018. In the second documentary airing on New Year’s day, BBC2 will tell the story of when Motown came to the UK in the form of a tour in 1965. The likes of Stevie Wonder, The Supremes, Martha Reeves and the Vandellas and Smokey Robinson and the Miracles arrived in the country and performed across the nation. When Motown Came to Britain will also include commentary from a range of artists in Motown fans, including Otis Williams and The Supremes and the temptations manager Shelley Berger, plus many more. Jonathan Rothery, BBC head of Pop Music TV, said: “Both films take a fascinating look at much-loved stars through the filter of the times they’ve visited our shores.” When Motown Came to the UK airs on New Year’s Day on BBC Two and iPlayer. When Tina Turner Came to Britain airs on Christmas Day on BBC Two and iPlayer. https://virginradio.co.uk/entertainment/86795/bbc-announces-two-new-music-documentaries-on-uk-motown-and-tina-turner

  16. Last nights show (8th December) with a Vietnam flavour with special guest Rob Gray.
  17. They were the more positive throughout the game. Croatia have been boring and stubborn for most of their time on the pitch throughout this tournament. Brazil though only have them sleves to blame, thya should have gone for it like they did against South Korea but they just weren't on their game for some reason. I would sooner see a team with flair and attacking intent progress rather than a stubborn defensive team. The World Cup whatever anyone thinks will be poorer without the Brazilians, not juts on the pitch but the crowds as well.
  18. Don't think anyone has rea;lly stood out. Brazil in patches but that was against poor opposition or a poor showing from the opposition. The Dutch haven't really excited, every team has shown they can be got at and be beat. Pretty open really but it gets harder and harder from here on in.
  19. It was

  21. Spain, for all their flair, technical ability and skill....I thought they were trying to bore Morocco to death with their passing. The one player they had who would be a target up front was Morata who was left mostly on the bench, hardly any shots, p*ss poor service to the forwards. Set plays and corners were shocking and to brag they practised 1000 penalties and then produce what they did was terrible, very poor from them. As Kev says every team have their weaknesses. France have theirs at fullback and with our attack, one of the best in the tournament we can get at them if Southgate is brave enough and sticks with 4-3-3. If he reverts to type and back three with wing backs sitting back, two defensive midfielders it is inviting trouble and we will be coming home. Brazil not been tested, The Dutch only dazzled in patches, very open now.
  22. I'd like to see this as well if someone can scan it?
  23. 125, 150 maybe?
  24. Get some cotton buds before you listen to soak the blood up
  25. I’ve just had a listen and I now know why it was something I’d forgotten all about and erased from my memory. It is utter crap why would anyone think it worthy of playing out?
