Leeds down, Bradford down, Halifax survive, now Chelsea go out of Europe. Is it Christmas????

Go check out the reviews to his Duet album with Jordan on Amazon, absolute classics, whilst there hop over to Amazon USA and search for the Best of David Hasselhoff (Import), those reviews make me cry with laughter.

where did he meet them? Where the f**k do you think he met them? Jesus help us all..........

That'd be one of my Grammar School PE Teacher then.

None taken.

It's boring isn't it? It'll be the same re the Ashes, they'll batter on and on about the 2005 Series being the greatest ever, failing to point out that if the light hadn't failed on the last day of the final Test the Aussies were poised to obliterate England. I think you're getting confused - England batted until about 5.30, to leave Australia to score about 300 in about an hour. So even if the light had been good enough, it would have been a very unlikely Australian victory. Had Shane Warne not dropped Pietersen earlier in the day, things could have been a little different. Hence 'Warnie dropped the Ashes". However, the second game could (should?) have been won by Australia, and they came close to winning the fourth as well. After this winter, the least said about the Ashes the better I think. My memory's not what it used to be, 32 and on the scrap heap of mental recollection.

Sorry to bother you with this life altering brain smashing piece of information Mr Wells, but if you're going to take a shed loads of SLEEPING pills, there's a 100% chance you'll start to feel TIRED. Seeing as you like being high, why not take yourself off to the Golden Gate Bridge and fall off it? Sheeesh....

Would the body start to rot so quickly?

i bet that hurt. put him on the deathlist asap, its only a matter of time before he gets deppressed and tops hiself because he has no dick.. sad man/ woman There are easier ways of being hospitalised so they can't deport you...

Doesn't Prince Charles get sat on by a camel every night? I'll get me coat....

Hasn't one of the members actually been on a past list? I could have sworn I read somewhere there's a famous member on here.

Can you make yourself really famous and get a uk obit? Also, can you try refrain from blowing your brains out till '08?

Thanks everyone

Perhaps therein lies the problem with this list. It is far too reliant on old age being the reason of death. I guessed Yeltsin, but it I regarded him as an outside chance - much like John Inman. You have to pitch at the aged though, too many Holly Johnson like shots would ensure annual disasters. There are long shots out there to be had though; Putin, Chechen Sniper, Bush, Sniper from just about anywhere on the planet, Beckham, crazed stalker, but are they worth speculating over when there's so many oldies just sat there waiting for the Grim Reaper to ask them if they want to play.

Here we go, more and more people jumping on that old band wagon. I'd hazard a guess that having scoured every available source the committee were left with the assumption that there were much more fitting candidates this year, and I would also guess that they did analyse people like Yeltsin but figured they'd probably have a few more years left in the old tank. If Castro lasts into next year will he go down as a bad choice? I would agree with some of the sentiment echoed in here that the list might be a little bit old age heavy, but it may have escaped some people's attention but old people usually die first. Yeltsin dying at 76 would probably be statistically young for a Russian, Eastern Europeans seem to last a lot longer than Western ones. Is there any truth in the rumour that his vodka transfusion to save him contained Smirnoff when old Yeltsin was full of Absolut, thus complicating his troubles? You taking the piss?Russians have among the lowest life expectancy in Europe.Point was, he'd been on the list several times before and has a history of heart problems.Maybe they should have tried Stoli.Also,how could Castro be a bad choice?At the start of the year he was odds on,so it would just be a case of bad luck for the committee were he to live. Castro isn't a bad choice, but come 1st Jan 2008 there'll be some muppet saying he was. What I was basically trying to say is that whoever is chosen in the 50 there'll always be some member/ guest annoyed at their inclusion, or if someone's passed over for the 50 there'll be some one saying they should have been included. How many UK obits will there be in a single year? Thousands if not tens of thousands? I don't envy anyone the task of choosing 50 from a potential pool of hundreds of thousands. I take your point about the Russians not having the longest life expectancy, my error, I apologise. I can't hear anyone questioning Clive Dunn's inclusion when we all know 100% he's immortal, he's our talisman and he's taking up a good bed on the ward that is the Deathlist. I have to admit I was surprised by Roddy Piper's inclusion but on reflection at the time it did seem like a good choice. I think Senor Piper was just toying with us, then he delivered a deadly finishing move of "I'm much better thanks", leaving his spot on the list in some vicious Boston Crab like move.

Didn't Zammo actually say yes or was that the kid called Danny? Terence Mckenna would also advocate a big fat YES, but only to the naturally occuring substances and a few chemical hallucinogens. Top bloke.

I dont suppose Keiths comments about his fathers ashes would have helped his mothers condition very much... He'll be rolling a fresh £50 for her as we speak. I bet she's stipulated she's buried. Under 49000 tonnes of lead.

has anyone heard of him? i would say not.. Probably not! By the way, Keith Richards' mum died as well but I'm guessing you wouldn't count that as it is only fame by association. Anyway, here are the details: http://www.abc.net.au/news/newsitems/200704/s1904912.htm If she made it to 91, it must be longevity in the family that keeps Keith rolling on after all those years of pumping goodness-knows-what into his body. Morbid Aussie It's probably what he's pumped into his body that's kept him going.

Hmm touch and go I think.. In general death terms, the first heavyweight death of the year and I mean that metaphorically although he was a big man... I can hear the lads in row Z chanting "Sack the Board"!!!!

His cremation however might last a few days/ weeks, and the flames will be a nice blue colour.

I was going to let this go, but when I got to the last sentence, I had to read, and re-read it a couple of times before I understood what you were trying to say. For God's sake, use punctuation if you want anyone to understand your witterings. For someone that once said... your ability/grasp leave a little to be desired.I disagree with the notion that this year's DeathList is a poor one. As has been pointed out before -- it hasn't been a good year for anyone (except maybe those that picked a certain young cancer-stricken girl). In response, my puntuation and grammer may leave something to be desired, but it doesnt seem to have held me back in life. 5 As at Alevel and a very good degree despite the poor english, not bad eh. Most of the mistakes arise out of the fact that i am normally mega busy and dont reread my posts. Anyways you sad cow how can you remember one of my insignificant posts from months ago and then crossrefrence it with something else i wrote almost a year later. Some people really need to get a life, i can picture you now ugly, fat and sat all alone at your computer the anger rising as you read what other people have written. Please get a grip, i suggest getting out more often! A fat, ugly Australian chick? Nah can't see it myself.

Ah.. but MIB, you've shot yourself in the foot here... There is one league team, who after being promoted from the non-league, has also not been in the third tier, having stayed down at the 4th So the list is: TOP TWO TIERS ONLY: Arsenal, Chelsea, Everton, Leeds United (not for long), Leicester City, Liverpool, Manchester United, Newcastle United, Tottenham Hotspur, West Ham United. FOURTH TIER ONLY: Boston United I await my prize in the post. PS Thanks to Rothmans Football Yearbook Give that man a cigar! Actually the Boston Utd stat would be a good one to bamboozle less football-savvy gentlemen (and women), that's providing they stay in the Football League of course... Now I've heard that Hartlepool could win their first prize of any kind if they go on to win League Two. I'm wondering who are the least successful team in the Football League. Don't include those fly-by-night teams such as Maidstone Utd and Scarborough, but ones who have been in the League a fair bit but without a bauble to their name...over to you OoO... well im gonna go for Middlesbrough. After forming in 1876, all they have to their name is winning the Old 2nd division three times, winning the new 1st division in 1995, and the more recent League Cup win with McLaren in 2004. and um, thats pretty much it. considering an average crowd of about 35,000 - Middlesbrough have to be up there with most unsuccessful, especially compared with loyalty from supporters. 1 Mickey Mouse Cup and a few promotions in over 125 years? They all count in the end, those divisional championships and a League Cup is better than diddley... I suppose there's a way of constructing a system which awards points for league positions, promotions, trophies, even minor ones such as the Watney Cup, as well as minus ones for relegations and so on. I'm thinking Torquay were not particularly successful, and are now ultimately out of the Football League all together... Halifax Town didn't pull up any trees and they were a league side for a long time.
