  1. oh definately nothing else for him to prove now

    he's a good boxer but he is a mile away from the world class boxers

    i still recon I would have knocked him and pacquiao out

    Depends what you mean by world class boxers.

    Hatton has only ever been beaten by the guy who was #1 P4P in the world. Mayweather and Pacquiao are absolute legends. Hatton has beaten plenty of elite fighters and has been an elite fighter himself for a number of years.

    I cant see Ricky Hatton wanting to finish like that. He wont want his last fight to be this:

    Im sure he will go for another fight in Manchester in front of his fans. After that, well, who knows? He wont go out on a comprehensive defeat.

    by world class boxers i mean the two people that KO'd ricky

    not embarrasing for him by a long shot but at the end of the day that is what ricky has always aspired to be, unfortunately he falls short of the mark

    he's had an outstanding career but he isn't ever going to be as good as the very very best unfortunately

  2. alrite mate what did you think of dylan last night?

    i thought it was cracking suprised by some of the older tracks he played as well, ballad of a thin man and desolation row were brilliant

    he knows how to drag a song out by a few minutes as well doesn't he lol

    he absolutely butchered blowing in the wind as well that was probably the worst track of the night

    i'd definately pay to go and see him again...if he is still alive to do another tour that is

  3. went to see dylan last night and it was **** quality

    played quite a few of his old songs which i wasn't expecting

    his voice is **** but he somehow still manages to pull it off

    great night it was

    john mayall and bb king are playing the NIA as well mite haveto see if i can get tickets for that one

    and i'm gutted that jamie T isn't playing birmingham

  4. If you like time out of mind and everything after, that's the kind of thing to expect, it's essentially blues with a little bit of lounge cheese thrown in.

    gotto say time out of mind is brilliant, i was listening to that this morning on the bus to be honest

    wasn't that keen on modern times though i thought that was pretty poor and i havent got the album that is in between them two but i have been told that is the best of the three

  5. nope ive not seen him before

    i'm not going into it expecting it to be a musical masterpeace to be honest i mean he is 68 now aint he

    he is just one of those people that, if you love his music and have still got the chance to see him you have to take it

    i'm only 24 and missed all the other bands i love (beatles, small faces, kinks, zeppelin, t-rex and queen etc etc) so i dont wanna miss out of seeing dylan

  6. not seen a thread purely for people to say what gigs concerts or festivals they are going to,

    Iif people start using it then it could help others spot something they may have missed or would be interested in going to.

     

    any way

    just got my tickets come through for bob dylan next wednesday at the NIA cant wait now man im buzzing

    i know he is an old man but he is a proper legend and one of my musical hero's so it should be great

  7. i used to do speed pills and coke all the time a few years ago

    dont touch any of them now though i'm much more suited to drinking

    and as much as i understand that drugs aint good for you and are a pretty idiotic thing to get involved in and i wouldn't ever recomend anyone to dabble...i had some **** great times

  8. you can clearly see me in the crowd on the villas top 100 premiership goals

    number 42 when vasssel scores against west ham

    i used 2 drink with steve cradock out of ocean colour scene

    i saw hassan kachloul in primitivo;s in town at about 12o clock in the afternoon drinking a huuuugggee glass of red wine whilst reading the paper

  9. General Krulak here:

    1. Let's start with the basic premise that I am a Villa Fan and I am as anxious as anyone to sign players. Hopefully no one out there will challenge that sentence. That being said, almost every comment goes back to "small squad", "is MON slooow", why do some players seem to "get away" from us, why aren't we signing new players and the ones we have, don't we know we are playing a game in 90 minutes, etc. etc. Seriously, is there anyone out there that does not think MON can count...that he doesn't know how many players he needs and that he is short a few??? MON knows exactly where we stand...and has NOT been sitting on his bum and is NOT happy with the numbers. Does anyone really think that MON does not know we have a game in 90 minutes?? Geezz, of course he does. Does anyone think that Randy requires MON to sell before he buys? If they do, they are DEAD WRONG!! Does anyone think that Randy will not open his wallet for MON? If so, they are DEAD WRONG!! Look around the league...seriously, there have not been a plethora of signings. We are about the norm. Why? To be serious, your guess is as good as mine. I can speculate but that is all it would be. I can assure you, MON is working! He is not sitting on his bum. Transfers are hard and getting harder...the league is competitive, agents are in the mix, lots of things going on. It is NOT just AVFC. It is VERY important to us because of where we are now and where we want to go...I understand that. At the same time, those few folks who seem to believe that Randy or the Board ought to jump in and start micromanaging the process are just asking for trouble. MON has a huge amount of help...at Villa Park, at Bodymoor Heath and across the Pond. It is not just a one-man show BUT, MON is the final arbitrator and you will not see Randy or the Board getting into his business. We will do one key thing...WE WILL SUPPORT HIM!!! Randy has NEVER, EVER, said no to MON. Again, I understand your frustrations but it is NOT just a matter of calling up a Club and Player and offering a wad of money....if it were that simple, we would have a bunch of players!

    thing is general every other team in the prem can field a squad of players.

  10. my tipple today will be

    a few pints of export on my lunch

    then when i get home a few cans of stella or red stripe and a few cans of scrumpy jacks or strongbow

    laying off it a bit at the moment though need to save money and ive been hitting it a wee bit too hard
