He was on RH Talksport tonight. Came over very well. City still the team whose result he looks for first. Bizarrely, Gwilam Lloyd was at that game working for SKY. Laughable, when you recall how in the first game it was impossible to tell apart the full time professionals from the part-timers, to here our new generation of fans moaning and leaving early when we are playing Man Utd, Chelsea, Man City, Liverpool etc and being suicidal about losing to Burnley.
He did well at Rushdon & Diamonds and then Shrewsbury too.. pitifully I left him out of my Top 10 City strikers list.. I didn't see much of him as I was living in Isreal & Turkey at the period when he was with us.. used to follow results 1-2 days afterwards in the Guardian
First time I heard this I just stood there open mouthed. I'd never heard music so exciting, so full of energy in my life. I was rooted. Smitten. Overtaken by something I was unable to explain. The feeling was primal. Primitive. Ineluctable. It burned into my neutral pathways, forging a mine of musical diamonds which I have since been unearthing with joy, spiritual fulfillment and soul-embracing meaning ever since. 38 years and yet it sounds as fresh, coherent and uplifting as it did that first time. A work of inexplicable genius. Mind you, I was a big fan of Paper Lace at the time too. The Night Chicago died. #greatestsongoftheseventies.
They've just released a new single here in Oz with Frank Ifield. It's called "I remember you, you coont"! HaHaHaHaHa!
Frankie Bunn, didn't he score a load of games against Oldham either over two rounds or a replay. Still Duane Darby, what a larker for us at the time.
The time I realised that I was, or approaching, middle age and I have to say these guys shuck up the music industry and my ears as well, and no I can't say I liked the row or 'energy' as it has been called but it lead to whole new era in the music industry of which Blondie was to emerge so not all bad.
Tony Wilson introducing the Pistols TV debut on So It Goes and Johnny Rotten shouting get off your arse was THE defining moment in British popular culture.
