Gaspode got a reaction from maxjam in Graham Potter
He'll do even better to see the 5 years out - not because he's a bad manager, but Chelsea are a basket case when it comes to managers

Gaspode got a reaction from Ted McMinn Football Genius in Serial Whingers Notts Forest playtime, which we simply cannot accept.
Obviously a bit short of players so now they’ve signed Serge Aurier…..

Budgie - what a band, criminally under-rated.

Happy days... when the assembly rooms was a proper gig venue... I saw the Clash, WASP, Warlock, Anti nowhwere league plus loads more there. Such a shame that Derby doesn't have a reasonably sized venue any more.

Scorpions at rock n blues was first gig i ever went to. Michael schenker was supporting and he was horrendous. Black stone cherry are brilliant but since they did the blues and cover album theyve gone downhill abit. Clutch are an incredible band. Really weird but brill ?

Cheers for that - I'll look them up.
I don't really follow new bands (though I am partial to Black Stone Cherry and Clutch - neither new, but still producing good new music).
It's a combination of my taste widening (to include folky stuff (love Seth Lakeman, Laura Marling & Suzanne Vega), a bit of old jazz (Miles Davis, Monk), 'new' prog (Porcupine Tree/Steven Wilson & Pineapple Thief), electronic stuff (Gary Numan has being doing some good stuff in the last few years) and also bands that I was aware of years ago but didn't really listen to as much as I do now (e.g. Pixies, Radiohead, Depeche Mode) - but I think the main issue is not really having the visibility of what's out there in the 'rock' world other than what I pick up off Planet Rock - in the late 70s/early 80s there was Sounds newspaper which highlighted the new bands to watch out for and also the Friday Rock Show on Radio 1 with Tommy Vance who was very keen to give bands a chance of airplay. Every week brought a new band to find out more about...
Nowadays there may be the same number of bands coming through, but what was generally called 'rock' has now split into a huge number of sub-genres and I just can't get into the trash/death stuff at all - I think I've mellowed...
PS forgot the Scorpions on my original list - they were great at the Assembly Rooms in 83

Gaspode got a reaction from Crewton in PP Sound System
It’s been crap in the East stand for quite a while - occasionally way too loud to have a conversation but mainly just garbled - sometimes it’s even hard to make out what song is being played….So I guess it’s not just you - unless we’re both sad old duffers with knackered hearing

People who can't let others express their identity in the way that they choose. Including, but not limited to, the wearing of football shirts.

So tried and tested at this level (Collins) ain't good enough for you, home grown talent (Stretton) ain't either and now a young lad from elsewhere doesn't cut it before he's kicked a ball...
You sir are a wum of the highest order and we all seem to enjoy nibbling the bait!
