Rest in Peace
Brilliant writer
He played for Arsenal in the first game I saw at Anfield. Doesnât seem that long ago.
Firstly⌠RIP to those poor people who just seemed to be in the wrong place at the wrong time - could have been any of us, or any of our family.
HoweverâŚ
News reporter giving giving some sombre updated news on those unfortunate people killed in Nottingham⌠Some imbecile of a woman, attention seeking, comes dancing and showing herself off in the backgroundâŚ!
There is a video, but fuck her, I am not giving her any added attention beyond this picture, of what is, such a despicable creature.
Some people are just sick eh
Worse, they walk among and they breed. Sad!
Glenda Jackson has died aged 87:
Definitely one of the leading actresses of her generation and also local: she was originally from Birkenhead.
Former Scotland International Gordon McQueen has died:
I was just discussing him with my cousin the other week. He was injured during the 1978 World Cup finals. whether it would have made any difference to Scotlandâs fortunes during that is another matter.
I remember he was Man Uâs top scorer one season, which said a great deal about the attacking players.
The original Slabhead.
She was a good 'un Glenda. R.I.P.
Just out of curiosity , would I be right in thinking that when somebodyâs demise is described as coming after a âbrief illnessâ , might that be a euphemism for a late diagnosis cancer ?
It could be but generally it means that the person had been in good health until recently rather than having eventually died from a chronic illness or died suddenly (e.g. from a cardiac arrest)
Itâs possible that the official cause of death hasnât been decided so âbriefâ covers the obituary writers.
we would have won the world cup!
RIP Gordon McQueen.
Archie Gemill and his weaving run against Holland, showing great dribbling skills and a neat finish over the goalie. One of my earliest footballing memories.
RIP Gordon McQueen.
I havenât read the obituaries, but I remember reading a peace a while ago, where his daughter was interviewed, and she talked about dementia, and all the heading.
Food for thought.
She had a very full and successful life for someone who grew up in a two-up two-down house with an outside toilet in Hoylake.
BBC News - Julian Sands: British actorâs body identified after long search on mountain
This is sad although I am glad that there is some closure for his family.
Some of his YouTube shorts helped me in the gym but he openly admitted to take steroids so no surprise heâs gone so early.
Was going to put this in The Whatâs Cooking Thread but thought better of itâŚ!
MODS please move, if even this thread is unsuitable
Personally wouldnât be my preference, but each to their own, my uncle Ben thinks itâs a great idea.
