RIP Jimmy Armfield. He was England captain back when I first started being interested in football and, like Jimmy Greaves, missed out on a World Cup place through injury. A sad loss to the game...

An English footballing man of an English football generation the likes of which we’re unlikely to see again in this day of Premier League millionaires, divers, peacocks and foreign imports.

Spent a happy 30 minutes just reading Fall song titles last night, while listening to This Nation’s Saving Grace.

To Nk Roachment:Yarbles.
New Face in Hell
I am Damo Suzuki
Why are people Grudgeful?
Mere Pseud Mag Ed

The list is huge, and mysterious. Brilliant.
