There’s now no excuse to refer to him as the Korean lad, or just the Korean. It’s there in black and white, his name is 양민혁 - is that so difficult to remember?
For the record I will still keep referring to him as the Spurs lad.
Polite request: could we fcuk off with resurrecting this thread and bringing to the top of the tree too. I’d rather see an advert for Saudi Crystal Meth.
Running on the spot. For DD, and everyone else on here. Rather than it being an early track it’s probably one of the last videos the Jam made. Rick always reminded me of Waterman in Minder too. And fittingly this video is filmed around the same Shepherds Bush back streets that Minder and The Sweeney were. Pretty sure it’s Milson Road off Masbro Road.
Love this tune (More Weller’s department but the lyrics get more poignant each passing year) I still play it often. Buckler’s drums drive the song through. Loved the Jam, one of the best bands. RIP Rick Bucker.
For over eight millennia people have foraged here on the Sefton coastline for the delicacy known as Formby asparagus. While further down the coast in the major conurbation of Liverpool they look in the dustbin for something to eat, they find a dead rat and they think it’s a treat.
Everton played the first game in their new stadium last night. An U-18s friendly versus Wigan In front of 10,000 invited Toffees fans. Everton lost 2-1. The first player to score at the new stadium was a Wigan player called Harrison Rimmer. After a minimal bit of research I can’t confirm if he’s related to the bloke from Red Dwarf. But young Rimmer is a Liverpool fan and when he scored he held up 6 fingers (not from the same hand) which represents how many European Cups Liverpool have won. Made me laugh anyway.
I love stadiums by rivers and seas. Off the top of my head: Arbroath, Fulham, Saint Petersburg, Shrewsbury. The new Everton one by the Mersey docks looks great. Hopefully we get to play there soon.
Absolutely no way we can get 2 points a game. It’s 3 for a win. 1 for a draw. And 0 for a defeat.
So having put that one to bed, seriously, previous seasons are a good guide but look at the situation we’re in here and now. We’re 4 points off the play-offs with 14 games to play and we’re playing good football. As I see it there’s 2 play-off places up for grabs and there’s about 10 teams involved in a mad scramble for those places. There’s not much between those 10 teams and 1 of those teams is us. March will be a tough month but maybe in our favour as we can have a good April and build momentum going into what could be a crucial May. A curious one is what will the motivations be of the opposition in our last 2 games? Burnley Home. Sunderland away. They could already be up or already qualified for the play-off but mathematically short of automatic. They could be resting players, playing young squad players. Or on the beach with Chris Rea. Could be a key factor in our run in.
Not sure when it came in but the phrase that gets me is the one along the lines of … and Queens Park Rangers are really asking questions of Derby County now. It’s as if the football match has developed a surreptitious pub quiz along with the actual match. The players jostle waiting for a corner, Michi Frey asks the Derby centre-back “name a London tube station containing all the vowels but only once?” Jimmy Dunne on the edge of the 6 yard box with his arm across a Derby player “which country has the youngest infant mortality rate?” Then Steve Cook goes over the top with a “Who scored the winner in the 2014 Championship play off at Wembley … and for a bonus point what was the goal officially timed at?” The Derby players in earshot look visibly hurt. The ref blows his whistle, delays the corner and wags his finger at Cook admonishingly, “Thats the 6th time you’ve asked that one son. Cut it out. Once more and it’s a yellow” Then blows for the kick to be taken. The questions continue.
