  1. Does anyone remember us celebrating our centenary ? I know I was young , but if I recall correctly , to honour the occasion we played the great Leeds side of the seventies , although I think we lost the game , my ooveridng memory , of the game , is the players kicking balls in to each stand before the kick - off .

    Can't see that happening again , mlnd you , the way were playing , the balls would probally either end up on the stand roof or in the road .

  2. l remember prince William being asked , why Aston Villa ? He had been guest of honour at the last Wembley final , before the renovation , and although it being , in my opinion , one of the worst finals in history , the prince was overwhelmed at the way the Villa fans sang their hearts out throughout the whole game , and from that day , swore his allegiance .

    For me that illustrates what a great club we are , and I honestly don't think there is a more infectious team in the country .

  3. Although it didn't go down well with the critics I happened to enjoy the Counselor , thought Brad Pitt stole the show , without even trying to .

    Wolf of Wall street was achingly funny ,but then you realise it's a true story , and tbh , it pays only lip - service to the victims , who must of been , sadly , ruined for the rest of their live. I have to say though , that imo Jonah Hills' performance was oscar worthy. Apparently he was so eager to work with Scorsese , that he took just forty thousand dollars for the part , bless him .

    Does anyone recommend 12 yrs a slave , it's on my on demand for 2 . 99 ? How come I don't have a pound sign on my pad keyboard ?

  4. I haven't read the whole thread, I just dont have the inclination to justify i daily actions, one thing I will say that I do is lock myself away from as many people as possible and countless times I have been asked why I do it and my answer is always the same 'I think we are a horrible species' by me locking myself away and getting by on the bare minimum (I have sky but that is only so I can provide myself with the luxury of watching the boxing) my fridge and freezer is nearly always empty because I work pretty much on a buy to eat basis.

     

    I don't live that way because of any moral implications I just think that 90% of the time people are words removed and I would prefer to spend as little time around them as possible.

    One man and his sky .
  5. Yeah he's from Tamworth.

    I think you"ll find Tamworth i does not lie within the borders of Birmingham , however it's not a bad brummie accent .
    Williams was the year below me at my high school in Tamworth. Also, Tamworth has 'B' postcodes so in that sense at least is part of Birmingham.
    your reaching a bit there my friend .
  6. l

    But Dylan also had an influence on the Beatles music.

     Not sure about that one.
    Dylan gave the Schmeatles Pot for the first time, their music and outlook completely changed almost overnight. Lyrically they became more introspective and they jumped on the psychedelic bandwagon as they experimented with more drugs. Wouldn't have happened without Dylan
    Maybe Dylan wouldn't have happened without Guthrie . Tbh did not really equate pot with psychedelia .
  7. I'm surprised with the level of controversy this is creating though, especially when signing a convicted murderer in lee Hughes raised just a murmur and double killer luke mckormick hardly got a mention outside of Plymouth when he re signed for them

    This reminded me . I was in the reception of Winson Green when Lee Hughes came in , and trust me , he derserved seven years just for the whistle he was wearing . Yes , white socks too .
