  1. Seen Ted (by other means). Daft,uncomplicated, really funny - some of the best lines I've heard in a while. Saw TDKR in IMAX. Incredible movie. Lots of things in there - that will keep the interest going- in repeat viewings. Mind blowing special effects (some with thousands of extras). Tom Hardy's performance as Bane is up there with Heath Ledger's The Joker. The ending is wonderful.
  2. Not watched the new programme, yet. Is it a replaying of the Fosters Webisodes - with added stuff? Highly recommend "I Partridge. We Need to Talk About Alan." Especially the audio version! Absolute genius.
  3. Man on a Ledge- Terrible name. Decent film. Never Let Me Go - Quite incredible.
  4. Holt ? who went to PNE.. I think! Great night! remember people being miffed that the Darwen End was full, though! "whereve you been all season- etc.." And Camp TV reporter, Paul Crone, mincing along in the Riverside!
  5. Superb stuff, Whittle and Plastichead! How good was Scott Sellars! Unplayable. I remember wearing cycling shorts under my kit to copy him. My favourite ever Rovers game is the '89 City game! Absolutely incredible atmosphere. Infact, reminded me how raucous the Ewood atmospheres used to be. When the 'Old Ewood' was rocking, there was NO place on earth like it!
  6. That is some show of anger. BTW. I'm trying to forget about Milan losing last night, and Juve winning Serie A. It doesnt get much worse than that! Juve are the Man United of Italy, and have glory hunting fans all over Italy. Rovers all but relegated yesterday afternoon, and that last night, capped a terrible season, for me personally.
  7. My sincere condolences, John. Thoughts go out to the family.
  8. Really enjoying the snipets I've heard of Jack White's 1st solo album (Blunderbuss). White's music often seems 'other worldly' to me, or like it belongs in another era. His cover of U2's 'Love is Blindness' is blistering! Loving 'Love Interuption', (since JANUARY). It is simplistic but glourious. His performance of it on Saturday Night Live reminded me of Bob Dylan's Desire period. www.vevo.com/jack-white/love-interruption...snl/USQX91200367"] He played, 'Love Interruption' (With a Female Band) - and 'Sixteen Saltines' (With a Male Band). His female band included Carla Azar, of Autolux, on drums!
  9. Agreed. Though it's sad, as it is when anyone passes, but unless you knew Fred personally -or he had touched your life in someway - this thread seems very odd and out of place.
  10. i was stunned when i heard about speed. my heart goes out to his family. sometimes words aren't enough. a very emotional 606, with robbie savage and darren fletcher, is well worth a listen... some great memories. its extremely moving, but a very fitting tribute! http://www.bbc.co.uk/podcasts/series/606 also.. kind regards to those on here that have, or are currently suffering with depression. i like many members, am always available.. if needed.
  11. i wouldve risked rovers losing him to real madrid! ;)after all it wouldve proved we were successful.
  12. correct. jensen being blamed for results would just be scapegoating! can anyone give me anything positive about our 1st team coaching staff.. kean.. jensen and brunskill! ??? cos im struggling!
  13. i wouldnt have minded laudrup at rovers! william's appointed ince instead of him.. cos laudrup would only sign a 2 yr contract. big mistake IMO. john jensen leaves... SO WHAT!. none of our 1st team coaching staff impresses me TBH!
  14. watched it the other week.. round at a mates... the japanese blu-ray version came out in mid march. truly brilliant and im not a formula 1 fan at all.. so can only imagine the effect the movie will have on an F1 fan.
  15. couple of pathe videos ive managed to find, im hopeful they'll be more (remember seeing a video of rovers in 58 semi final wearing striped shirts?) hope the club to something as a memorial and perminant reminder to him. maybe retire a shirt number in his honour... (might be difficult cos players had many numbers in those days) http://www.britishpathe.com/record.php?id=41425 http://www.britishpathe.com/record.php?id=41696 i feel privilaged to have met him on several occasions. (my dad used to clean his boots) footballing genius. but more importantly he loved the rovers. was loyal, humble, gentleman a real man of the people. grand fella.
  16. wonderful points, roversmum. having witnessed the standing issue myself i was utterly appalled with the sheer ignorance of people infront of the disabled platform who simply refused to sit down (dunno why... mustve been thinking it was funny and cool to look ignorant). i was a few rows away... more central... but recognised a young lad who i know, getting abused so then he started abusing them back. things could have escalated from there! so i went an had a word with "the standers" who just laughed, told me to "f*** off!" and shrugged their shoulders. i left before i'dve done something idve regretted. i saw him after the game and he says he might stop going cos it's happening more and he's getting more and more frustrated and angry and he said it was "soul distroying to go to a game and not get to see most of it!" i know for a fact he's a true passionate fan... cos ive seen and spoken to him at most games. he;s a great guy, gentle character and i felt for him to be honest. you probably know who i mean, roversmum! i agree with those who are exasperated with some of out 'fans' i think the only way to stop them is for the decent fans to get together and speak out... when anything happens. lastly... sincere condolences to the lad and all his family and friends... accident or not should take away from the fact that it is a real tragedy.
  17. bloody hell, Ranulf. I bet the birthday punch didn't last long with Gazza and Andy 'the bum-chin Payton.' haha. did he hide in your wardrobe ??? on benni 'big-mac' i had a feeling things would end bitterly...i couldnt understand why the majority of rovers fans have been chanting his name for the past few weeks (obvious he was going to leave). going on strike at any club is despicable.. not sure i can add much more about that. IN MY OPINION. he has been hiding behind a few lines of bullshit about 'wanting to play more games' and ensure he gets into the south africa squad.. when clearly he doesnt get on with fat sam and he'd quite like a pay raise and see the bright lights of London. that's up to him. i dont think rovers will miss him too much (on the pitch) and he'll soon be forgotten by his disciples on the terraces.
