I bumped into Don a few years ago in a supermarket in South Lanarkshire. He was delighted to be able to chat about his time at the Rovers. I got the impression he had a real fondness for the club and didn’t bear any ill will (I seem to think he said something like “that’s football and who is Don Mackay compared to Kenny Dalglish” or such like). I have very good memories of his time as manager, particularly the first 3 years.

Johnny Nash (of I Can See Clearly Now’ and ‘Tears On My Pillow’ fame) has passed, aged 80. Legend has it he sorted out Bob Marley’s recording contract so for that alone we thank you and RIP sir.

The Tymes - Ms Grace

Stonewall Jackson - Waterloo ABBA would have been the obvious one, but for the purposes of keeping the game going.....

Paul Weller - On Sunset

Faron Young - Its Four In The Morning

Thought the captain got a couple of big things wrong today but it was just even more of a slog-fest than usual.

Paul Weller - Stanley Road

Blimey, Forest are having a tough time of it, 2-0 down early doors at home to Bristol City.

Still with us at 90 is Gerald.

After that Palace 5-4 game I was walking home (or should I say floating home!) up Cravens Brow with my mates and we overheard two older men talking in front of us. They were obviously on a big high, like everybody else, and one of them said to the other "Eeeh, I won't even be meithered if th'ewd queen doesn't have me tea ready when I get in!". Funny the things you remember isn't it?
