Thanks. I was half expecting a thirty yard worldy.

 

Going back to Pete Townsend, apologies for coming in late to this but he was the one who invented the windmill-arms style of guitar playing, which our very own Mick Channon would use as his trademark goal celebration.

I went to see The Who for my 18th birthday present in November 1971, at the newly-opened Rainbow in Finsbury Park, London. They were brilliant. The next time I saw them was at Glastonbury in 2007, and they were still just as good. I, for one am extremely envious of Godders.

 

Bale's night is over. Di Maria replaces him.

 

Ronaldo scores. 2-1.

 

Very fortunate, but they all count I suppose.

 

I Am Legend is on ITV now. This being on straight after Blackout, two post-apocalyptic disaster programmes one after the other, that's a bit depressing for a Saturday night! Good film though

 

He's not at all entertaining. How he's managing to make a career out of it I don't know.

 

2-2 now. Credit to Villareal, they are giving Madrid one hell of a game.

 

2-2. Isco is so good.

 

He was funny in Bo Selector, but that's about it, for me. I have several episodes on a HDD somewhere.

 

For those who don't know The Who (poor lost souls) here is a clip:

Pete Townsend is the guitarist jumping around in the white jeans.

Simply the best Rock and Roll Band ever.

PS If you too would like to visit this particular property PM me and I will tell you how but no riff raff are allowed.

 

I didn't even like that.

 

I find Lemon entertaining but he isn't witty or clever or anything. I got a Keith Lemon card for my birthday and my nan pointed to the card and said, "I can't stand that man!"

I'm familiar with Pete Townsend, do I get a medal? My favourite guitarist is Johnny Marr.

 

Not surprised. I strongly suspect that you hate any show with that moron in it.

 

Jimi Hendrix is mine.

 

Yep one of the most unfunny people on tv ever.

 

Arsenal have copied our 3rd choice kit of last season.

 

Villarreal go close again.

 

Been watching this for the last 10 minutes and Bale hasn't touched the ball even when he is providing a very good outlet. Do I detect petty player politics already..?

 

I think your detection systems might very well be playing up TSS as Bale isn't on the pitch at all!
