Back in the day (black and white and running stupidly quickly), they would have stopped the game, disallowed the goal and all shook hands. Cook would have had a bucket of cold water chucked in his leg and finished the game as there were no poncy substitutions like today.
The game these days is played by cads and bounders. And grimy Northerners. Flogging too god for them.
This sort of thing will bring down the Empire. You mark my words.
Yeah, can’t blame the residents and all that. But. Why aren’t they at the bleeding game themselves? Eh! Live near the ground, go to the ground. Should be a bloody law.
Funny old bunch are the UB’s. I only knew the early hits which as has been said were fairly superlative. The Earth Dies Screaming is touched by genius.
I never listened to any albums though until Daniel Paddox kept banging on about them in a drunken rage at me at The Flepherd and Shock that for my own protection I bought the first three albums. A very pleasant surprise, they were really good.
A shame they turned into the overblown soppy, covers band they became. Nothing to recommend there at all and now seems to be all they’re known for.
Also I find it weird that after the split people go to see the Ali Campbell version of it, given it was him who jumped ship but after he had to cancel gigs started using the band name. Like going on to support MK Dons.
Glad to say Danny hasn’t killed me, as far as I know. But he will not buy an XTC album no matter how much I rage drunkenly into his Guinness.
Couldn’t have put it better myself, although give me a litre of Sherry and I’ll give it a go.
Never been less interested in the 3rd round draw. Which used to be a small highlight of the season. Unless we get an away draw at a new ground I won’t be going and don’t give a flying f uck about it.
