Mr. Beast

Rick Parry crack me up. He's a silent movie comic genius like Charlie Chaplin.

There all at it, Echo today: Mark Walters: I didn't get a fair chance at Liverpool Pbbb!

Anyone see this. (,)(,)/iplayer/episode/b00j4cwd/My_Strike/ (can't post urls yet so replace the boobies with bbc.co.uk and click the link) Absolute pathetic piece of journalism. Starts off painting the the strikes as some kind anachronistic phenomena (not a direct result of an all too familiar failure of capitalism – no it was poor people gone mad. CRAZY TIMES! Slowly descends into a classic piece of apologism and victors history. With all the class and power bias you’d find latent in any piece of “objective journalism.” I kid you not, Thatcher and the intransigence of her regime is not mentioned once as a contributing factor to the strikes. Not even her name once until the very last 2 minutes then it's a passing remark by some old goon talkin about his boss. I need to go to sleep so just a few points What was with the story about Eddie Shah’s wife having cancer at the time have anything to with the flow or context of the argument – manipulative as fuck. and who the fuck cares about Eddie Shah – what a hero. Did the Unions really exert fearsome control over the media at the time? Come on! Also forgets to mention the strikers nearly won if it wasn’t for Neil KingCock and other shithouses in the Labour Leadership I really wanted to learn about Norman Tebbit crisis of conscience too. And oh yeah, the BBC’s favourite expert on everything, Kelvin Mackenzie is in it - a lot - , lording it like a cunt. Can the man appear on screen, in print, on the radio without being a complete and utter cunt. Someone torture him. I'd be interested to hear everyones thoughts (well almost everyone) (this might be a bit unbalanced but frankly there's a time for balance and it's not 1am in the morning with the nation sleepwalking into another Conservative reign)

That's the one. Oxford Arms on Camden High Street normally has two games on a saturday 3pm - can't guarantee we'll always be on though.

IF you fancy a "laugh", go The Famous Three Kings in West Kensington, always on, loads of screens and full of bad mongs. Few examples: Professional Reds singing "We all live in a land of Carraghers" "Fack Off Chelsea FC...." (on repeat never mind who were playin) "No Surrender to Fulham Town" Made the last one up but another popular one is calling your own players cunts when they lose the ball or if they were Jermaine Pennant: "u fackin rapist!" ?!?!? Actually don't go there - you'll spend so much time scratching your head you'll miss most the game.. (PMed you somewhere decent)

Not a regular poster but Professor Tom Cannon called me once in response to a very speculative job application. Complete tool. imo.
