  1. Sorry mate I think we posted at the same time. Freda Payne - Band of Gold
  2. Yes but to be fair those that reacted to the news on here initially (including me) didn’t know what her background/nationality was and the shooting dead in the street of a young girl of apparent Asian heritage did initially smack of an honour killing. There was nothing racist about that reaction - maybe jumping to conclusions too early yes but not racist.
  3. I must admit that was my first thought too, with some startling similarities between this and the murder of a friend and colleague of mine (also a Salford Uni student) in an 'honour killing' in Blackburn about 35 years ago
  4. This. Jack was almost certainly a bit of everything. Thankfully he loved his football club enough to do what he did, that's all I really care about now.
  5. How many league goals did Sutton score in 13 games that season? I'll give you a clue, it was the same amount Paul McKinnon scored for the club. Had that been Ashley Ward/Kevin Davies/Chris Brown/insert your own choice of dud striker here* the fans would have been all over them (and not in a good way!) Dropping an out of form/unfit player (which is what Sutty was at that point) is a manager's lot. Newell and Shearer was actually a decent partnership for us. And yeah, I'm not surprised Sutton wasn't happy about it - I wouldn't expect him to be. Selling a player is what 'actually' split up the SAS, the player in question being Shearer.
  6. No but I'd actually quite like to see you try and justify why Rangers should 'fight' the decision to call the season and award the title to the team that are 13 points clear with 8 games to go. As an aside do you think Celtic fans are happy at potentially having an asterisk against ten in a row next season? Believe me they would rather have completed the season on the pitch. (As it happens I don't necessarily think that was the right way to go, I would rather have waited and finished the season properly when it was safe to do so but the clubs went through a process to decide how they were dealing with it and now have to abide by it)
  7. You're missing the point though. Quelle surprise.........
  8. Ha ha nice one Lennie. I'm not a fan of either of the old firm but I do pay my taxes - a lot of them - and always have done and if anyone thinks Rangers would have been bothered to 'fight it all the way' if Motherwell were being crowned champions and not Celtic then wakey wakey.
  9. Of all the nonsense you've posted today this takes the biscuit. Even Steven Gerrard will admit that Celtic deserve to be crowned champions (although he obviously has one eye on England when he says that!). You're obviously a big fan of tax dodgers. First Jack Walker, now The Glasgow Rangers 2010 or whatever they are fucking called these days?
  10. It isn't rubbish. If you are going to credit Jack with buying players then he carries the can for selling them too. He sold Shearer, ergo he split the SAS up!
  11. I remember that Tony. I'm sure deep down and now that they are both in their advanced years, they have a grudging respect for each other but there was absolutely no love lost back in the day. Its almost certainly a Glasgow and Liverpool/Manchester thing.
  12. Note he didn't say "Make Alex Ferguson look cheap". You are viewing things through a lens of Fergie winning the league year after year. At that time United weren't even the top dogs, Liverpool were.
  13. What does the bit in bold even mean? Also, your big hero Jack split up the SAS, not Ray Harford.
  14. Ferguson was Dalglish's enemy, not Jack's. He hadn't even won one league title when Jack took over at Rovers, he was probably an irrelevance to Jack then, just another football manager. You are reinventing history to suit your vendetta now.
  15. I was there that day - suffering from vertigo like all the other Rovers fans. I seem to remember Michael Owen missing a few chances for them but the buzz when the winner went in was fantastic!
  16. The one Shearer missed he would have scored about 95 times out of 100 as well (albeit a more difficult chance than Sutty's)
