Anybody watch the Rod Stewart documentary with Alan Yentob on BBC4 last night? I really enjoyed it, even when he went shit after he left The Faces, he was still very entertaining (with a helping hand from Kenny Everett). I absolutely love the two LPs he made with The Jeff Beck Group & all The Faces stuff, couldnt believe In a Broken Dream never got a mention though, what a tune. It must be fucking great being Rod Stewart as well, he saw Penny Lancaster on the telly & ended up banging her, I wish I could do that with fit birds I saw on the telly. "Is he gonna get any petrol? No he's using the forecourt to turn around... he thinks he's Rod Stewart!"

Listening to Made In Japan, recorded 50 years ago this week. Molten fucking lava flying out the speakers...

Where are these excellent female keepers then? I've certainly never seen one. People are so desperate to say that men & women are the same now & they're not, women just don't have the physical attributes to be good goalkeepers. People can gloss over the fact all they want but it makes their version of the sport vastly inferior & will continue to do so regardless of who is coaching them.

Let's be honest, if that happened between two blokes in the street & one went over holding his face, everyone would be pissing themselves laughing at the cunt. Alas Football is a different kettle of fish & what Nunez did was stupid.

I still don't see anything wrong with his technique, the snatched/mis-hit shots last night were a mental thing, he's trying too hard & needs to relax.

Folk can make all the excuses they want but the reason women are shite in goals is because they are women. They do not have the speed, reflexes or upper body strength to be good keepers & they can't catch & throw anywhere near as well as men. None of this is going to change so the standard will always be dogshit.

If anyone needs cheering up today, this LP is phenomenal...

I am drinking heavily.

Women's Football needs to fuck right off. You'd be as well sticking a traffic cone in goals for a start and as for all these co-commentators prattling on like someone's blind auntie over actual Football, they should drown them like the witches they are.

I have absolutely no idea who the cunt is on that Chelsea flag.

Just to be clear, the venue Sadowitz was playing was Edinburgh International Conference Centre, the theatre company who cancelled his second show are Pleasance, some London based wankers Edinburgh council have sold the city out to.

I've watched this about 10 times now, I'm pissing myself laughing and like the music at the same time... https://www.instagram.com/reel/ChPlP-PFFc3/?igshid=MDJmNzVkMjY=

I'm sure the majority on here agree with your general point, I certainly do. Half the reason we have this overreaction to everything is that the arts are overrun with middle/upper class fucking do gooders with nothing better to do than get offended. Working class people don't get a look in & it's getting worse.

Aye, I wasn't really referring to that part of his post with my comment.

Couldn't agree more, we are on dangerous ground here for the arts.

It's Jerry Sadowitz, the whole point of his act (other than his magic) is that he goes out of his way to be offensive.

Sounds reasonably tame for him. I find the concept of cancelling art pretty disgusting to be honest, we're on a slippery slope here.

Spot on. They should cancel the fucking festival. Basically the arty farty hipster contingent of London de-camping to Edinburgh for a month to make our lives a misery.

Thankfully it's very easy until he starts rapping his political opinions over the blues licks.

Please tell me he done a forward somersault & star jump in front of the away end after the game.

Five Live Yardbirds & The Blind Faith LP are also superb.

Aye, Hendrix was shite right enough.

It's not fair is it. I would add to my initial post that the reason my food budget is so small is so I can afford to save a wee bit, do nice things with my kids at the weekend & go for the odd pint with my mates. A lot of people are far worse off than me. Putting food back on the shelf because it costs too much gets pretty depressing right enough.

A lot of food places are going to go out of business, along with pubs and other non-essential entertainment type places.
