So much over coaching going on in both sports. It gets to the point where spontaneity is lost. Don't get me wrong Gatland was a perfect match for Wales in his first tenure but he had a good generation of players. Who could play his game plan.
He didn't become a bad coach but had a poor record when he went back to New Zealand and totally played the wrong tactics for the Lions against an under cooked Boks side who were there for the taking. |

Promoted and managed by Malcolm McLaren who brought them to the UK before Punk. Morrissey ran their UK fanclub. Described by Whispering Bob Harris as ' Mock Rock' on his Old Grey Whistle Test...probably not Bob's best moment.
Very important band to what became the 1976 Punk movement. On a personal note I quite liked them but I agree with John Lydon in saying, we already had Glam Rock in the UK and along with Bowie there were plenty of androgynous looking groups. Still innovative and controversial in their day but like a lot of the NYC bands got involved in the Heroin and drugs scene. [Post edited 2 Mar 16:02]

Love him or hate him an absolute genius. To me the best ever. When your main rivals were Federer Nadal and Murray when he was on top of his game. There's a case for both Nadal and Federer being the goat.
He's a winner and if he was British he would be loved but we prefer plucky losers. |

The thing is most old Punk bands which used to play to the kids....those kids are now middle aged and have disposable income, so many bands have reformed and play live to them and their kids. I have heard it's very hard to make money out of recorded music unless you are Taylor Swift or had a huge hit.
The Stones realised years ago live music and merchandise was the earner. |

Well said mate. People don't look outside the mainstream. So many good artists out there. I remember in the 70s listening to John Peel and looking for something different, or new. Still talented people out there but the system wants you to listen to total commercial cack! |

Dont agree with you often mate but spot on. Female artists of real class . Joni Mitchell, Emmylou Harris, Ella Fitzgerald , Nina Simone Sandy Shaw, Petula Clarke. Loads of others too. Modern divas/ music sucks! |

Win the middle class vote win the election. By middle class I mean what used to be working class. Job, mortgage season ticket holder, holidays abroad, posh meals etc. That's what Blair did and now Starmer will do. Sorry but the lefties won't have a say any longer. |
