Ince and Rio captained England. Ince would have captained England more had it not been for Adams maybe.

I wish Sol would get back to work rather than sitting around complaining. Has he taken his manager badges? Is he even trying? He should get involved with the youth system, make a name for himself and then move up the ranks.

I read Barnes biography about 20 years ago, he talks about BNP supporters going to England games and chanting stuff like 'we only drew (the 2-1 win) 1-1 because the n*gger scored the other'. Barnes replied 'I suppose we lost then because I set the other 1 up'

The BNP were largely and still to this day Chelski fans right?

Not really, Chelsea have their element of that but it's just any racist up and down the country and racial attacks were pretty common place up until the 90s all over the place, I'm not sure if it's as bad now but the Islamophobia thing has given them a whole new excuse to be hateful.

BNP have pretty much gone bankrupt after using the Marmite logo without permission. Most of their supporters signed up to the 'English Defense League' after that to beat up Pakistanis. In the 80s they were 'Combat 18', the 18 numerically standing for the AH in the alphabet, which in turn stood for Adolph Hitler. Classy Stuff!!

 

[Sydney Gooner]

So Combat 18 stood for Combat Adolf Hitler?

Did anyone else see that Ian Wright program 'Nothing to Something'? It wasn't very long but still good, he had it quite tough as a kid. You can still watch it on ITV Player.

Cheers for the heads up, I was meaning to catch this but totally forgot about it.

Rocky Rocastle, 13 years today. He cried his eyes out when Graham told him he'd sold him to Leeds. Should have retired the No.7 shirt when he died IMO.

You could've at least retired your avi though, I like King Tubby myself but your internet face was Rocky mate.

 

[Jury]

I done the Tubby one to honour the anniversary of his murder. I should go back to Rocky now... I hate resizing stuff though. I can't brain.

On the subject, all I see when I look at yours is ****ing Mark Lawrenson. It's a right mindfvck.

 

[jones]

Lawro Don't let rwA and especially clockwork see that post, they'll have you banned for blasphemy.

 

[redwhiteAustrian]

Seems we've got to update the point "Reasons for Bans" in the Forum FAQ.
:wink:

 

[outlaw_member]

Happel does look a little like Lawro in that pic. It's a shame you don't see managers toking away on cigarettes anymore. I suppose it's good considering how he went, though.

That Ian Wright documentary, ****ing hell what a man.

 

[Lakersgooner24]

Am I right in saying that the Ian Wright documentary was the exact same thing as the GRM Daily interview they uploaded on youtube a year or so ago, because I can't find that youtube video anymore which makes me think they sold or lent the rights to ITV? That was a great documentary though, a great guy.

 

[Vinci]

^Yeah, you are right, it's the same: Nothing to Something series.

Luckily I downloaded the clip of Youtube when it was still on.
