  1. Steven Gerrard has said the same thing repeatedly whenever asked about nearly moving to Chelsea. How he would've won more there however doing it with Liverpool amongst his own people would mean much more
  2. I heard loads of school kids in Manchester are refusing their free school dinners because they don’t want to be associated with the bone idle bastard. That's a great line
  3. Hell of a report, cheers Dave. Gutted to miss this one as was at Depeche Mode in Glasgow
  4. Low pain threshold, punched his weight less & less post treble 2001. But was weirdly always well up for games v Chelsea. It was as if he never forgot getting a red card against them after shithousery in the Worthington cup at Anfield & was super pumped up for these contests. Shame it was unsustainable
  5. Red Star Belgrade won it in 1990/91, beat Marseille on pens? It was 2000-1 when Bayern next won it
  6. Go on, play The Masterplan after this one you small-time twats
  7. Mine are pretty random. I remember a Dudek penalty save late on away at Pride Park to preserve a 1-0 that kept us top of the league, late 2001? Ended up going over the seats. Michael Owen's second in the Carling Cup final v the Mancs in 2003 after they'd been battering us for the best part of an hour, again went flying. Emile's header v Roma in 2002, Kop was just mental that night and in the same vein and saving the best 'til last Garcia against Chelsea in the CL semi in 2005. It was one of those where you're going so mad you almost forget to breathe in, you're just shouting out in celebration for so long that it starts to get a bit woozy and you're needing to fill your lungs or you'll pass out. Happy days
  8. I spent two years renting in Wavertree when I was a vet student & the previous tenant (on Earl Rd) was a female who’d lived alone there. Met her a few times as she’d pop back for mail now & again & she said she’d been happy enough living there. This was a few years ago mind
  9. People going off on holiday/returning. Suitcases never look full or even remotely heavy. Clearly just full of padding or whatever. V unconvincing. Fill them up! Make the actors have to properly lug them around
  10. Season 85/86 we were needing Everton to drop points for us to win the title. Oxford beat them & we beat Leicester on April 30th. Nice if we could see a similar swing today
  11. Felt the game had hints of that Roma home leg in 2001 after we'd won away 2-0. Not the worst omen in the world given the trophy haul that followed
  12. More history you were never taught in school. Battle of Bamber Bridge Jun 24, 1943 – Jun 25, 1943 On this day in 1943 black American soldiers faced off with white American Military police during World War II on British soil. Yes you read correctly black American soldiers had to fight their own white American soldiers, while in England, where they were fighting for the world. Why? Because the English town of Bamber Bridge in Lancashire was not segregated so they treated the black soldiers like all other races, aka blacks were free to eat, drink anywhere, BUT back in America segregation of blacks and whites still existed. So essentially the American army went to someone else’s country and demanded they adopted America’s racist practices So when the American Military police found out that their own black American soldiers were drinking at the same pubs as white people they went in to arrest them. The people in the town got mad about the treatment of the black soldiers and decided to then turn their pubs into “BLACKS ONLY DRINKING PUBS” the very opposite of what was taking place in America with their WHITES ONLY businesses. Of course this pissed off the American military so guns went blazing, and when word spread back at camp that black soldiers had been shot, scores of men formed a crowd, some carrying rifles and by midnight more American military police arrived with a machine gun-equipped vehicle, so the black soldiers had no choice but to get rifles from British stores while others barricaded themselves back on base, so now it was American white soldiers versus American black soldiers. This lead to the death of one solider, injury of 7, and 32 convictions. Back in America the battle was hushed up because they didn’t want the country to find out that they were fighting their own soldiers which would anger the black population and weaken the morale in the country. You may read about the ill treatment of black American soldiers by their own army in the book FORGOTTEN.
  13. People getting punched in the face & being instantly knocked unconscious. Midnight Run is a prime example, De Niro’s character goes ‘Marvin, Marvin, look out’ & then when Marvin looks away he knocks him spark out. On, like, three separate occasions. And his hand isn’t sore. So, that, & when people go to sleep their bedrooms are never dark
  14. Just finished re-watching season two. See when they go out in the boat to whack Pussy, why didn’t they just do it up on deck? Big bloater weighed a ton so they had to drag him up the steps & then clean up all the carpets & shit. Just a thought
  15. I was a guest on Soccer AM back in 2002 (Hearts fans were the supporters of the week) & Tinhead was on too. He came across as a bit of a twat if truth be told
  16. Yeh, I shouldn't post using my phone, I always fuck it up!
