Estragon Posted January 31, 2017 Share Posted January 31, 2017 Here's a timeless one from Merseyside's favourite on the subject of Frank Bruno's mental health struggles. Bonus points for the "aw f**k, this hasn't gone as we hoped" substitute headline. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I'm Brian Posted January 31, 2017 Share Posted January 31, 2017 Was quite a momentous few days all those years ago. A dark cloud was lifted from our lives. Was quite funny how it was all so very public as well And before anyone casts it up, Yes, I would have shagged her when she was in her earlier 20's Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dee Man Posted January 31, 2017 Share Posted January 31, 2017 If a gay man ever finds himself going to the papers with a story about burning his penis due to using Ralgex as lube with a Hearts defensive midfielder, the headline should be 'IF YOU CAN'T STAND THE HEAT, GET OUT THE KITCHEN'.

Hamish's Passenger Posted January 31, 2017 Share Posted January 31, 2017 FIREBALL SPACE ALIENS BUMMED ME BEHINDSunday Sport6 Mar 2016By SIMON DEAN simon@ sundaysport. co. ukEXCLUSIVEA FIREBALL from space that lit up the sky across the east of Scotland last week brought terror north of the border.But for Kirkcaldy housewife Gwen Collins, the meteor brought more than heavenly wonder… it brought two randy space aliens who treated her to out- of- this- world TABOO sex.Gwen, 35, was returning from a quiet early Monday drink with friends and temporarily lost her way, ending up in a car park behind her local branch of bargain frozen food store Farmfoods.She told Sunday Sport: “I saw this huge flash in the sky and I said, ‘ Och!’ Next thing I knows these two space aliens came up to me and said ‘ Alright, Gwen, do yous fancy a twos- up?’“I thinks, ‘ These must be space aliens come down in their UFO!’ They were wearing Cowdenbeath tops to blend in with the humans, you know, but they were definitely space aliens – how else would they know my name?“May God forgive me but I thinks it might be interesting to have a scuttle with a couple of space aliens. Next thing I know they were giving me the special space sex. I knew they must have been space aliens because one took me right up the jacksie.“When they were finished they went off into the night, drinking their space juice, which they had hidden in Buckfast bottles.”Dazed after her space- bumming, Gwen – who has posed in her bra forSunday Sport readers – staggered home where her husband Tam had been enjoying a quiet drink in front of the TV.She said: “When I got home my husband, Tam, said ‘ Och, Gwen you’re all covered in spunk!’“I says to him, ‘ It’s space slime y ’bampot’, and then I tells him the whole story and he’s, like, we’ve got to tell the papers.”Gwen, who has convictions for drunk and disorderly and soliciting, added: “I feel like I was chosen as a sex ambassador for the planet.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tony Ferrino Posted January 31, 2017 Share Posted January 31, 2017 Married my lovely wife easter weekend 1998 - of the good friday agreement and Rik Mayell braining himself in a quad biking accident. Also of George Michael getting arrested in a public toilet. The Sun's headline, I was told, was "Careless wrister". ☺ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fullerene Posted February 1, 2017 Share Posted February 1, 2017 I remember one famous front page that included a fluff piece about a small newspaper boy in Buffalo getting a chance to sell a newspaper to the President of the United States of America. "Thanks, son, here's a nickel." "No, Mister President, this one is on me." How sweet. A nice feel good story to make you feel better. Not sure it was good idea to keep that piece on the front page. Higher up on the same page, the headline was: "President MacKinlay assassinated" Presumably not by the boy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
