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.

Doris Troy - Just One Look

Me too, but he’d rather watch England at the moment.

Dionne Warwick - Don’t Make Me Over

No 2 son has just drawn it to my attention that if England top their group they’ll be playing that tea time at 5.00.

The Four Tops - Walk Away Renee Not as good as the Lefte Bank original.

It won’t be a problem because there isn’t any.

Dobie Gray - Out On The Floor

Anybody who’s going to be fighting with Pears for the goalkeeping jersey isn’t going to be good enough.

What do you think ?

What we really need is a “ Czar “ , that’s the next step up from a “ Guru “.

Bread - Everything I Own

Gary Puckett And The Union Gap - Young Girl No 1 in the UK, no way would this even get released today.

Regarding playing styles - back in the day you knew you were watching Brazil just by the way they played. It didn’t matter what shirts they were wearing. Now they are like any other Latin American team.

You can take the lad out of Blackburn but you can’t take Blackburn out of the lad.

I see Dack and Evans have been released at Sunderland.

A few of my pals that still go up to Rochdale reckon he’s got a bright future.

I’m thinking back to the Watford game at Ewood. We were winning relatively comfortably at 1-0 then he had two easy to deal with shots that he palmed back into the goalmouth for two simple tap ins. Game over at 1-2.

The plus point - He’d fly out to India and smooth talk the Chicken Chokers into buying some top players. The minus point - Even with the top players we’d still play like shite.
