I've met a few of my idols... never asked for an autograph or anything. Just the experience of meeting them has been enough tbh.

Apparently there was, but Bruce doesn't want to help out our rivals

Oh god, the internet would have exploded!

Fully onboard with comments about Foo Fighters. Soooooooo bland.

Rodwell signs for Blackburn. What could possibly go wrong?

Only keeper to ever save a LeTissier penalty!

Red is completely overrated. Aye

That's the one.

Oasis and... someone else.

Good to see him back and scoring... wasn't sure he had it in him anymore.

Totally. Their first album is one of the most insipid, weak as piss albums I've ever heard, popular with a bunch of people so E'd up you could have sold them Cliff Richard records and they'd have loved it.

And up until this point, I was agreeing on everything you said ? I actually think his Berlin albums that you include above are overrated. And his work from there onwards to the late 90s is at times awful. Hunky Dory is a masterpiece though. But his 21st century output is of a really high standard. He stops pissing about and hopping between genres and just knocks out a run of albums full of top quality songwriting - Hours, Heathen, Reality, The Next Day, Blackstar.

Doh ?

Always thought The Doors were underrated - Morrison's reputation as crazy wild rock star overshadowing what fantastic musicians they were.

Yep, good call. Briefly exciting for about half an hour in 1987.

Bowie's comments on this were great - "kids come up afterwards and say, 'It's cool you're doing a Nirvana song.' And I think, 'F_ck you, you little t0sser!"

The Ramones had an ear for a good pop melody that most bands would kill for. Sold sod all records though. I was lucky enough to see them once, albeit in the early 90s, way past their best. They were breathtakingly brilliant.

I feel the need to stand up for the Velvets here... artistic, innovative, individual, hugely influential. They wouldn't make a dent in my personal favourites list but I can appreciate what they did. I'm not sure they can be overrated, given that the majority of people outside of yer music afficiandos have never even heard of them.

I reckon Trump would rather nuke the entire planet than suffer the indignity of impeachment.

Nice to see Buttler and Stokes actually bat sensibly. They were never going to save the game, but perhaps the top order can at least learn something from watching them. Cook is busted, has been for a couple of years. Only in the side because we have nobody to take his place. Moeen I think is a brilliant cricketer, but he seems very much a confidence player, and the last Ashes series destroyed him. Good to see him finding some form again, at his best he definitely improves the team.

Only a fan of the Stones and Pulp on that list, but I'm not sure any of them are particularly overrated. All pretty important bands in the overall scheme of things. I'll vote Oasis though, cos whilst Noel certainly knows how to write a tune, his lyrics are usually utter shite.

Yeah, I watched Skyfall and Spectre a week or two back - really enjoyed Skyfall but Spectre was crap.

Forgot about Friedel, he was pretty solid. In retrospect James was good, just seemed like a downgrade after Bosnich... which I suppose anyone would.

It was "test cricket at it's best" because it was exciting, not because England were performing brilliantly with the bat. Of course we should be able to lose (we're very good at it!) and take it on the chin. But there's no denying our batting has been woeful for a long time now. I think we've passed 500 just 3 or 4 times in the last 4 years? We desperately need a player like the Cook of old who can bat all day. Root had that potential, but these days he converts very few 50s into 100s. On their day all our batsman can be superb, but we disintegrate as one so damn often, we're like a sandcastle when the tide comes in. It's just so horribly predictable!
