    Pope Benedict XVI

    Oi, that's what I was going to have for the DDP! Then again, who knows when he'll cop it. Could be this year, could be next year...

    Pope Benedict XVI

    It can't be for health reasons, he would just croak and that would be that. It must be some other reason...

    Jimmy Savile

    Well you have had the clues. Can you guess who it is yet? The latter line would suggest Rolf, but I find it hard to believe. Unless he's putting a very brave face on it, I don't think it's Rolf...

    Derby Dead Pool 2013

    No, it's just that I haven't got round to doing it yet. Busy man at the moment so time to do these things is relatively short. But you can help by sending me a pic and precis and he'll be up in no time!

    Bunkum Or Bunker?

    Which is probably why Lard and co don't give a shit. If it was down their neck of the woods then they would. A bit. Leicester should milk this for all it's worth. Message to Nottingham: how's finding Robin Hood getting on? No idea about the main man, but his statue's bows keep being nicked. Can only be two types of mindless football clowns... sheep shaggers or fox fans. However our away lot, did burn down Southend's pier, so that puts a perspective on stuff like that. I'm sure I can remember going to Nottingham Castle once and seeing Robin Hood's bones in a glass cabinet. Or at least they said it was his bones. Could have been my imagination...

    Troggs frontman Reg Presley has had a stroke while on holiday in Spain... He feels it in fingers, he feels it in his toes..

    Don't be too quick to add him to List of the Missed, as there's no credible obit source just yet, if indeed, he's died. Yes, I have held back as you will see in the latest update in which you are the Player of the Month for January!

    And a miss too. Fairly regular in the DDP in recent years but as soon as he falls off the radar...

    Reg Presley

    We'll see, I'll update tomorrow. I was planning to do it tonight, but I wanted to watch the Richard III documentary. He was found in the car park of where I worked about ten years ago!

    Paul Gascoigne

    Oh. Might explain why my brother is still with that colossal bitch of a sister-in-law. He's probably not right with himself. Aptly enough this thread has turned into a mental health surgery.

    Paul Gascoigne

    Was he the Worlds worst husband? Compared to who? Josef Fritzel? Like i said, he is a child, he has tantrums, he misbehaves and he married somebody that knew all of that all too well but the smell of fame and money won the day. As a player he may have been a liability but what a liability!! I dont know many football supporters of any club persuasion who wouldnt happily have walked a fuggin long way and happily paid to go and watch Gazza. Thats the thing, you want a bit of passion, excitement, genius and brilliance or do you want 90mins of Scotty Parker? I think the days of mental illness "is yer own fuggin fault" have long, long gone. The child needs some open arms to run in to. Now that made me laugh! And I can categorically state that Gazza was not the world's worst husband, because that accolade goes to the massive twat I was married to for ten years. I don't know much about football, but I know that I enjoyed watching him and he was fucking good, and he at least had a bit of a personality, not like the fucking long-haired, over-paid gaylords of today. It's just a shame he has not been able to overcome whatever issues he has - being mental is no fun, you know. We've all had a bit of a laugh I'm sure, self included, at his daft rantings and made loads of Red Bull/fishing rod jokes, but it's actually all terribly sad. I'd put him on my list, and I'd take the points, but I wouldn't enjoy it. If your ex was such a massive twat, why were you with him for ten years? And please don't say for the sake of the children...

    British Science Fiction Series

    Depends on what you mean by good? It's pretty dated now (as is any television from the 1970s) both in look and feel (all this dystopian worldview is very much of it's time). However, I've got the first series on DVD and I enjoyed it (I'm only old enough to remember when it had Avon as the leader not Blake and subsequently being confused by the title!) and I hope to get the second series in the not too distant future...
