I was trying to count the steps to see if Blandy was right oxygen starvation addled my brain at around 65 steps at least the actual stand isnt as steep as Bolton though Fair assessment of the game I think Peter, good report and an excellent titular reference

ummm, tackling is a skill!

One for the Macro peeps, the first time I've used my macro lens in anger really Shot at f2.8, lesson learned, needed to be a slightly narrower aperture but as the shot is handheld (oh the joys of having a VR Macro lens) I'm still reasonably pleased with it

Couple more from France (Troyes)

Was never a dive, if he was going to dive he'd have dived at the first opportunity not the seventh, Liverpool tackles were flying in left right and centre, it was a foul but Mavis chose to see it through the eyes of a hallucinatory LSD casualty because he is one of the worst refs in the country. Biased one eyed top 4 loving prat Other end of the pitch it may have been but when I see comments on even Liverpool websites like "maybe it shouldn't have been a foul but what a Free Kick by Gerrard" I know for sure we got f***ed over by Rliey yesterday I see a doomy outlook from many on VT after yesterday but in reality, one of the top 4 sides came to VP yesterday and scored from a freak OG and a wonderfully unstoppable Free Kick that should never have been awarded. They ballooned a couple of shots over. We scored from a pen and created about as much as them (ie next to sod all). I have a few personal niggles about players being on the pitch but I came away from the match with a sense of loathing for Riley more than anything else. Liverpool were mediocre at best, so were we. Little in the contest itself to be honest just the bast**d in the black

I saw them at the Tower with my sister. She had the first album, i had not heard a thing. it was an eye opener. you probably just walkd past me again

btw, just realised, I saw the smiths twice on that tour once at Liverpool Uni (the day of my Uni interview) and once at the Tower Ballroom Red Guitars were the support, which reminds me..........Good Technology, which I now HAVE to listen to right now

I'm sure you mean Mozfather Weller and Marr on t'other hand, that could work :nod:
