Death Anniversary Thread

'Old Stone Face', Buster Keaton died today in 1966... -
Legacy of what? The only 'legacy' he had was the one he inherited in the first place and then he pissed it all away!

Death Anniversary Thread
themaninblack replied to themaninblack's topic in DeathList extra-curricular
Quite frankly, I don't like the way this thread about death anniversaries has turned into a debate about contentious figures in British constitutional history and I will not stand for it.......... ....today is the Anniversary of the death of Guy Fawkes -
Good-oo. Another death that I am surprised so few other teams picked. Once Arundell goes I will be in a strong position. I know I'm not supposed to win it but hell, I'm as competitive as anyone Must say, it's been an interesting DDP month (and a record - 22 hits compared to 21 last year). Few of the bankers (Atkins et al) have gone, and those that have gone have been perhaps those on the periphery of being chosen by many teams. Site to be updated Monday when I'm back. 11 months to go...

Good idea, although I always find it a little tricky, because some of the witty barbs are in the context of some subject or other and so when it's taken out of context, it doesn't have the same purchase. For example, see CP's little spat with Deadly Doug...

What's also good about it, is that although those with even a smattering of knowledge on 70s football would know who won what that season (Liverpool the League, Arsenal the Cup etc) they wouldn't know about the results of these individual matches. It's like watching them for the first time, which in my case, it is!

Death Anniversary Thread

Billy Fury died on this day in 1983... -
Noone had on DDP. Wow Yeah. Him and Gutteridge: two big misses in a week. We don't get everyone... I bet Octopus is happy though. After a new year rush, it's been quiet on the DDP death front recently, unlike last year when it was death after death...mostly for me!

If Rafa Benitez employed some of those strategems, there wouldn't be a breath against him...

Almost! Well perhaps he should hurry up and Die!! This has gone on for as long as fooking Crossroads. And that was sh*t too! Has Benny come back with that screwdriver yet?

Iain Cuthbertson. Tall Scottish actor, best known for playing Charlie Endell (a sort of Scots proto-Arthur Daley character) in LWT's 1971 series 'Budgie'. Also recognisable as the wrongly accused father in 'The Railway Children' (1970)

Oh the Irony, in this of all times... If A N Wilson (how pompous it that? What's yer 1st name?!) is still wondering why 'The Left' still hate Thatcher, then he's not very bright...

Should we care? BTW Argentina's 6-0 defeat of Peru in 1978 was less of a fix than Celebrity Big Brother 2009... -
