Early 70’s pop groups
Did any of these acts have any success in the USA? . I remember that although Slade, T-Rex etc were huge in the uk they never made any impact in the states. I believe Slades only US hit was run run away in 1984 tho i might be mistaken. The only glam artist who had a massive hit in the US was Gary Glitter with Rock n Roll Pt 2 which is still played at Basketball matches to this day :o I wonder if he still recieves royalties for that song while in Prison?

Life On Mars
Loved the first two episodes :cheer: Exciting from start to finish, though i wonder who the guy on the phone talking to Sam was :o I actually prefered the second episode to the first, though i thought Marc Warren was great as Tony Cray. Life in Mars is one of the best dramas to come out of the UK in a LONG time. :cheer: Gene Hunt is a GOD, one of the best TV creations in ages. "You are Surrounded by Armed bast*rds" Class :lol:

Name three Politicians You like!
Can anyone name their top 3 favourite politicians either current or from the past. My Fav are 1. Harold Wilson. Not great Economically maybe but made great reforms and was PM when Britain was a great place to live IMO. Plus he held the Labour party together, as was shown when the Labour Party fell apart in the 1980s after he quit as PM. 2. Winston Churchill. Dont agree with his domestic policies but was a very chrasmatic war-time figure who basically was the only european leader at the time to stand up too Hitler. We probably be speaking German right now if it wasnt for him. 3. George Galloway. Weather you like or loathe him in a era on boring politicians and labour/conservatives policies being identical its good to see a man you stick to his believes

Nobody seems to care about Rugby now were $h!t :lol:- Sporting Moments Of 2006
Well thats true for Footie, but we did win the ashes in cricket last yr and we won the Rugby World Cup three yrs ago. Im sure if we won a few matches people would be we were the best team in world again :lol: For me are most successful sport at the moment is Boxing. We have two of the best middleweights EVER in Joe Calzaghie and Ricky Hatton IMO- Ipswich Killings
Bet its some religious nut who thinks hes doing the world a favour by killing hookers :wacko:- BBC Sports Personality Of The Year 2006
What a joke :angry: What Zara Philips done then? If she wasnt in the royal family would she of won :angry: There should be only ONE winner and that Joe Calzaghe After 42 fights, 42 wins and 31 knockouts, Joe has proved his is one of the best pound for pound fighters in the world and the UK's top boxer. He is currently the longest reigning world champion and has held his WBO super middleweight title for 9 years whilst colledting the IBF and IBO world titles along the way. He has defeated other previously unbeaten world champions and as an amature won 3 consecutive ABA titles at 3 different weight classes and only lost one amature fight, the oppositions father was the referee. Therefore, as boxing is a sport where you can lose your title, unbeaten record and good health in a split second or a punch, in my eyes the real winner is Joe Calzaghe. :dance:- best british gangster films of all time!!!

Saw alike cooper at the horn in St Albans the other day, not 2 bad :cheer:- Kelvin MacKenzie Strikes Again!
FORMER Sun editor Kelvin MacKenzie yesterday revealed "I was not sorry then and I'm not sorry now" for the paper's infamous coverage of the Hillsborough disaster. Speaking at a business lunch, he told more than 100 guests he had only apologised to the people of Liverpool because the newspaper's owner Rupert Murdoch had ordered him to. And he insisted the Sun had only been reporting "the truth" when it accused Liverpool fans caught in the terrace crush of urinating on the dead and stealing from bodies. Mr MacKenzie was guest speaker at the annual lunch of Newcastle law firm Mincoffs LLP. A source told the Daily Post: "There was a question and answer session and someone asked him if he went to Liverpool much. "He said: 'All I did wrong there was tell the truth. There was a surge of Liverpool fans who had been drinking and that is what caused the disaster. 'The only thing different we did was put it under the headline 'The Truth'. 'I went on the World at One the next day and apologised. I only did that because Rupert Murdoch told me to. I wasn't sorry then and I'm not sorry now because we told the truth.' " The source added: "He then compared people in the city to animal rights protesters and told an anecdote about a time when he visited the city and got in a taxi. "He said the driver was talking about The Sun and said if he ever had Kelvin McKenzie in his taxi he would kill him. "Then he said if the things he had said today got out he was sure the whole thing would blow up again." Last night, families of the 96 victims, Liverpool FC and politicians condemned Mr MacKenzie. The head of the Hillsborough Family Support Group branded the comments callous and challenged him to repeat them to him face to face. Phil Hammond, chairman of the Hillsborough Family Support Group, whose 14-year-old son died in the tragedy, said: "This just shows what kind of man he is. "It has been proven that the story was a pack of lies yet here is all these years later peddling his lies on the after-dinner speaking circuit. "Why doesn't he come and tell the families this to their faces? "If he really believed he was printing the truth and stood by what he said then why didn't he walk away when Rupert Murdoch supposedly made him make this apology?" A spokesman for Liverpool FC said: "Any comment of that nature would be totally inappropriate and hugely disappointing." Liverpool FC were playing Nottingham Forest in the FA Cup semi-final at the South Yorkshire stadium in 1989. Lord Justice Taylor's official inquiry into the tragedy found the cause of the disaster was overcrowding and failures by the police. The Sun apologised in July 2004 saying it was "truly sorry" and that its false allegations were "the most terrible mistake in its history." But families of the victims refused to accept the apology, which was issued in the wake of the angry reaction on Merseyside caused by Everton and England soccer star Wayne Rooney's deal to tell his life story to the newspaper, for a reported £250,000. He returned to The Sun to work as a columnist from May, 2006, and is also current boss of the Wireless Group. Walton MP Peter Kilfoyle said: "His comments just reinforce the fact that he was an unfit person to run a national newspaper. "Everybody knows he sanctioned that story and he will have to live with that." Louise Ellman, MP for Liverpool Riverside, said: "I think it is outrageous. "It shows that when prejudice is deeply ingrained it is very difficult to remove. "All the facts, including the official inquiry, are against him. It is disgraceful." Total Prick Never Forget, boycott the Scum <_< - Chelsea 2 - 2 Reading, Man Utd 3 - 0 Wigan
