Who the f**k is Terry? Reckon it will be a cremation somehow. I don't know if I am the only one here who has seen Smokie play live. Possibly. Saw them play Uppsala Town hall in Sweden in 1999. It was a good gig, but the Swedes did not know the Chubby Brown version of Livin' Next Door to Alice. When I stood up to belt out that bit, nobody joined me. They just gave me funny looks. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember a friend from Burnley totally destroying Bernard Manning with brilliant heckling that he couldn't handle. The true Burnley fans, including the brother of a well known actress, were the bigots' worst nightmare. Great laughs but no prisoners taken! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it was (former guy in charge) @Fuctifano who said of yon South African rugby player whose name escapes me "he's in my team until he dies or I do" and I operate a similar philosphy. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fuctifano Posted December 24, 2021 Share Posted December 24, 2021 It was Joost van der Westhuuizen I think. Louis Farrakhan from my first team in 2005 is still alive today 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
