    Big bruiser Gerry Sidebottom deid from cancer aged 64. https://au.networkofnews.com/australia-news/garry-sidebottoms-magnificent-career-remembered-5/ Lovely tale of him missing the team bus for a Prelim Final and being replaced at the last minute by a bloke who in a Gazzaesque way had just had half a chicken, chips, a large milkshake and had just smoked a 10 deck of Windsor Blue.

    Football

    Tbh I think he had chucked it afore his appointment due to his dad's health. His father was a one cap goalie for Portugal and I vaguely remember tipping him up on here a wee while afore his death as José was flying to Brazil to see him. I think his dad had brain surgery which caused Jr to quit Chelsea, and was nearing the end when he took the Man U gig. Timing is everything.

    Football

    As an aside re José, his home League record from early 2002 I think, was 150 games unbeaten. Porto, Chelsea, Inter then Madrid. 9. Fucking. Years.

    Longevity? Without thinking too much, Guy Roux. And José winning the CL with Porto after flukily winning the Europa League the previous year is waaaay beyond whit Sur Alex did at the sheep. ETA after a quick check, Roux is 80 now

    World's Oldest Mule dies at 56 down in Cork. As it was from liver failure, I'm guessing old Tootsie was from Moscow. https://amp.independent.ie/irish-news/kick-the-bucket-worlds-oldest-mule-tootsie-56-dies-in-cork-37959205.html

    The EU Referendum Hokey Cokey

    One for the masses. The US bonds inverted last Friday, ie you get a higher return on a 3 month bond than on a 10 year one. Last time it happened was the signal for the Housing Crash in 07/08. It almost always leads to a Recession within 15 months. https://www.cnbc.com/2019/03/26/stock-sectors-to-buy-when-bond-market-is-flashing-a-recession-signal.html Given the main players in the EU are pretty much struggling as is, would you want a soft Brexit, to stay in the shit hole, or get the fuck out?

    Can't get more narrowed down than "out" Deathers. They've fucked it up since then, mainly with the hand wringing greeting faced wankers.

    The Priests Of Father Ted

    Not one of the Priests, but Anthony McLouchlin has died and I don't think we have a stuntman thread. Was in a lot of big budget stuff but also was the naked man on Teds car at 22.00 in. https://www.rte.ie/entertainment/2019/0326/1038757-irish-stuntman-anthony-bronco-mcloughlin-has-died/
