    Through the streets of Birmingham? 

    Plenty of canals in Birmingham. I know it’s not the same, but remove the shopping trolleys and it’s possible.

    Centre-half John Kurila, part of the Northampton Town team that rose from the bottom flight to the top flight and back down again in successive seasons, dead at 76.

    The picture in the Northampton chronicle was taken in1965 if the report is to believed. He looked bloody awful for a 23 year old!

    They were padding the books.

    Ordered a carpet off those fuckers a fortnight ago and am waiting to hear when it will be fitted.luckily I haven’t parted with a penny, but I bust my ass getting all the paintwork freshened up. I’ll be phoning them tomorrow.

     

    The salesman admitted that January was extremely quiet. He put this down to the weather. I bet they say that every winter.

    Honourable mention to the Coventry ring road though. Shittiest, most dangerous bit of road I've ever seen. Exits are so close together that those leaving at the next are merging with the traffic joining from the last. Plus the local scallies loved taking air rifle shots from the overbridges.

    Yes, it’s a bloody nightmare. Last time I was on it they were knocking bits of itdown(either that or it was just falling down).

    probably the worst town in the country is Hednesford ( an old mining community next to Cannock). A shame as my parents were born there ( but had the sense to move away as soon as they got married) and I support the local footie team. The area is run down, rough and a bit squalid. It’s likegoing back fifty years .

    Fat fuck terrible movie director Kevin Smith had a "massive heart attack" last night and was apparently very close to death. Let's celebrate the man by remembering his finest contribution to the English language:

     

     

    I bet he has a great range of chat-up lines. Smooth, silver_tongued cavalier that he is.

    I always felt that his mental illness issues would be a real problem for him ashe got older and now he has this to deal with too which is a great shame. I’m a big admirer of his work and hopefully he will deal with this challenge too.

    Belatedly just noticed this. I played against this chap many times when he was in his 50s and he was a really nice bloke who retained a great passion for cricket even though his body was a bit knackered by this time. He achieved many fine feats during his earlier years ( I was there watching when he dismissed Boycott) , but still retained a sense of great modesty.

    Ouch!  I'm afraid I am going to have to lock that one in for the month.  Such a mistake from our second place team was not expected, but you have a 5 pt handicap this month EXU.  Leo passed in 2016, I remember it well.  It was the big year for rock n roll titans to go out, although I would argue that last year was just as bad with Tom Petty, Chuck Berry, Glen Campbell and Fats Domino.  I am sure you will overcome this misfire and still place well in the overall competition.  

     

    Note:  This was my response to EXU's personal message of his team to me, before I read all the postings that occurred after his embarrassing error.  I did not expect this to happen, so I didn't specify the penalty from the get go.  But as commish I feel there should be some penalty for sloppy play, and it probably will not hurt EXU much in the long run (and not at all unless Rupert Murdoch dies in Feb).   

    I'm taking it on the chin so no worries. I'm not sure if rupertmurdoch will last too long. Shagging jerry Hall at his age, although he won't be complaining, can't be too good for the ticker.

    Bloody hell, I had two hits in January with Mark E Smith and Jimmy Armfield. I've messaged my team to Wormfarmer and it is from memory ( I think) Cleo Laine, Tony Bennett, Bill Wyman, Yoko Ono and Leonard Cohen

    Good to see that Joey is paying attention! I'll obviously remove Leonard and replace him with Rupert Murdoch
