Terrible news. Such a shame for football and more importantly his family and friends. RIP Gary. Transcended club loyalties.

Very well, where do I begin? My father was a relentlessly self-improving boulangerie owner from Belgium with low-grade narcolepsy and a penchant for buggery. My mother was a fifteen-year-old French prostitute named Chloe with webbed feet. My father would womanize, he would drink, he would make outrageous claims like he invented the question mark. Sometimes he would accuse chestnuts of being lazy...the sort of general malaise that only the genius possess in the insane lament. My childhood was typical...summers in Rangoon, luge lessons. In the spring we'd make meat helmets. When I was insolent, I was placed in a burlap bag and beaten with reeds...pretty standard, really. At the age of twelve, I received my first scribe. At the age of fourteen, a Zoastrian named Vilma ritualistically shaved my testicles. There really is nothing like a shorn scrotum...it's breathtaking, I suggest you try it. Seriously though I've been here since 2001, moderate when I can and enjoy reading all the different views. Don't post that much anymore but always reading.

Damn. I should have read this before picking up the phone. Still waiting.

I'm absolutely mesmerised by your post - but then again it could be your signature!

We've seen this summer how bad management can turn a team of world class players into under-performing second-raters. Let's see how good management can turn around the career of a former rising star. Let the ink dry on the contract before he's hounded out.

Lee is an option if we get rid of Brad, even with a sprained wrist!

That not a bid harsh Rev? Got to give the lad a chance.

I'm guessing here, and it is purely going off the name on the team sheet, but it is quite possible that the lineswoman was that well known Spanish dominatrix Yolanda Parga Rodriguez. Alternatively it was the Romainian Irina Mirt 322237[/snapback] I'll have those DVDs back when you've finished with them Groobs

Not a great Pic at all but as Abbey says, she looked good tonight.

I never thought I'd fancy an England left back!!

I like Kasabian. Really enjoying Embrace as well. Loved the Good Will Out as great memories from Uni Day, but musically this is far better. (Nice on Chris Martin )

The guy is a soft, gutless loser in my opinon, who couldn't cut it in the big league. Good riddance! And that's all I have to say on that. (quote Forest Gump)

I'm resigned to nothing happening now. Gonna go cheer myself up and finish watching A Fish called Wanda "K-K-K- Ken's come to K-K-K-Kill me"

Then can you then explain your previous comment about despising playing for us?

I'm surprised he went public. Doesn't he usually comment on his club through hidden cameras?!?

That would indeed add to the hilarity

I'm a Blackburn Rovers Fan. Not a Craig Bellamy fan. I'll cheer on whoever pulls on the shirt. Don't like the fella but who cares, I go home to a great family everynight and then to see my team on a match day, Bellamy included. My team is worth more to me than the sum of its parts!!

firstly i am not 13 secondly i am post graduate studing Meng in network engineering Bloody hell. They're handing them out to anyone nowadays. I had to be literate for mine. Education! Education! Education!

Must say I'm impressed with his interview.

Rover's Transfer target Robbie Savage has tonight handed in a transfer request. The Wales and Birmingham midfielder had been a long time target for former international mananger Mark Hughes and has looked to be keen to sign for Rovers over the last few weeks. It now looks as though the former Manchester United and Leicester midfielder is on his way - perhaps to Rovers??!!?? More news as we get it.

Leather Chaps - Not to be sniffed at

Thank you Gav. Abolutely right. I'm as big a rovers follower as there could be but I had to laugh at chants of "Stand up for the Blackburn End". Ok people want to vent their frustration at what is going on but I have bigger concerns in my life than Keith Lard chucking out a few chavs and thousands of people going ape sh1t at people on £5 an hour who do what they are told to do. My mate's Dad went in for a routine operation and died of MRSA - erm not wallowing but come on . . . I'm not dismissing people's right to follow football in what ever way they want and I'm not criticising those that felt they had to make a statement . . . but come on . . . It's just a shame that I was compelled to see what was happening to my right as I missed Youri's perfectly good goal ( not seen it on TV so could be wrong) ruled out for offside. Let's get things into perspective people. Please read Paul's thread from a few weeks ago should you need a glimpse of that perspective. But come on . . . . .

You're damned right. I had about three of him in Panini '88. Him and Ray Houghton got me a Peter Beardsley in no time!

I think the outstanding factor was poor passing and control tonight. True, Charlton closed down to well but there was limited options for the pass (so add movement to the list). We seemed jumpy and blunt tonight. Lots of the ball but nothing meaningfully creative from the midfield.

Damn. Can't find anything to argue with!
