VG: nice one! Was looking for you on C4/E4 too no avail. I'd say you must have been seen in some of the Weller audience shots, there were a few of people singing Town Called Malice, I recall. You should have seen me during that one! It was just like 1981 again for me (except for the bad clothes!). ...

No, it was definitely 1958. In the liner notes for the This Years Model reissue, EC confirms this, saying Steve was a 19-year-old when he joined the band. The Hall of Fame website has made a mistake. Unless, gasp, Elvis has :lol: For those of you who know...some quick questions on the man behind th...

There's loads - which Elvis readily admits. You Belong To Me/The Last Time (Rolling Stones) and Rockinghorse Road/Wild Thing (The Troggs) are the first couple that come to my head.

Congrats to your youngest Gilli. Yours and Goody's shopping antics make me wonder why I get stick from Mrs VG when we go shopping for going up and down the aisles... ...at least I'm not groping strangers and have my eye on the trolley at all times! :lol: So MBA, how are you getting on in your new job?

Hargreaves played well although we missed Beckham in the set pieces, and also corners for his accuracy in placing the ball at the head/foot of our strikers. I wish I could agree but I don't think we did miss him. His accuracy is all well and good whilst he has time it but many opposition teams have...

Hargreaves for Old Trafford! Wouldn't have said that pre-germany, but he was a surprise star player there. Very solid. We'll have him, please. I agree in that I did not think he merited a place in the England team and could not see what Sven saw in him. Hargreaves' play in the last few matches has ...
