Elvis Costello And The Attractions - ( The Angels Want To Wear My ) Red Shoes

It sounds like he won’t be starting tomorrow. TAA supposed to play playing instead.

Only one team in it in this afternoons game. Switzerland are all over Hungary who have been really disapointing so far.

Yeah, Colin MacDonald was a top class keeper until he broke his leg, playing for England I believe. Ken Brown a decent steady centre half at West Ham but I think he only got one cap. How our Matt Woods never got an England cap when the likes of Brown did is a bit of a mystery.

I see Tommy Banks has died. He was just before my time but I’ve heard lots about him ! RIP Tommy. I think that might make Bryan Douglas the oldest surviving England international.

The Ribbons - Ain’t Gonna Kiss Ya

How long do you give him before he’s off again ? 6 months , a year, 2 years ?

The Essex - Easier Said Than Done

I can’t recall seeing anything like it before. It was a shambles. 5 at the back yet there was an easy ball out wide on both flanks all night. 4 in the middle marking nobody, just getting played around and through . Really strange. 1-0 down, then 2-0 down and nothing changed. I’d have gone 4 at the back, 2 up front and played in a more direct manner. You might as well get beat 5-1 having a go rather than what we saw tonight. I’d like to know how many times Adams and Shankland actually touched the ball. It can’t have many. Musial is a special player, what Foden should be for England but very rarely is.

When dinosaurs roamed the earth.

The Rolling Stones - The Last Time

Did anybody watch “ King Otto “:the other night ? It’s a film about the Greek team that won the Euros a few years ago and their German coach at the time. I can recommend it.

Elvis Presley - It’s Now Or Never

I thought that as well. Well soon see if he’s headed too many footballs.

How to sell season tickets, not. I’m so glad I cried off the Accy games to watch a possible England game now. Nobody will ever convince me that their game plan isn’t to run the fan base down to such an extent that when they finally pull the plug there’ll be nobody there to protest.

No, the common theme is the Chicken Chokers. They are responsible for the endless stream of no mark, never was, shysters and frauds that they’ve employed over the years.

It’s us that will need the luck. He’s used all his luck up just getting the job.

I think that’s me done. The place is a shambles. They’re definitely doing it on purpose now. What the fuck does Rudi know about anything apart from how to go on strike to get a move out of Ewood. Wake me up when it’s Blackburn Rovers time again. The only consolation is he’ll be gone in 12 months just like the rest of them !

The Drifters - Up On The Roof

Would I sign a keeper ? Definitely, but I haven’t got the Rovers cheque book. I don’t think Eustace has either.

The Lovin’ Spoonful - You Didn’t Have To Be So Nice

Have you seen The Who version of Countryline Special on YouTube. ? Some good Mod photos in the montage.

Cyril Davies Rhythm And Blues All Stars - Countryline Special. Nice bit of harmonica.

You’re talking like we’ve got pots of money and we can go and sign anyone we like. Maybe we should go for Stockdale, I believe he could be available. Maybe have a punt at that ex-Dingle at Newcastle. They’ll be better than Pears. If he sticks with Pears it means all the magic beans are gone and the kids piggy bank is empty. I only live in a 1930’s semi-detached. Put a black mark against my name. Obviously I should be living in a really swanky detached house at my age.

I’ve said it before - players only come to Venkies Rovers when they have no other options. Two or three clubs in with us for a player and they very, very rarely come here anymore. Look back over the last few years signings, how many have we been in a battle with other clubs our size for. Who can blame them, why join a circus when you can go somewhere normal.
