I think it was about getting away from the wife for a few hours and getting a few pints in.

I’m not averse to the sentimentality of the thing, but the bloke’s accent bothers me a bit. No whan torks like that, surely?

I do have a recollection of it being, “the famous Tottenham Hotspur”, now you mention it. 3 cats, 3 chickens, 1 dog, 4 horses. I’m ****ing...

Unnaffordable for one thing

It provokes a question. Not about C’s nags but when the bantering rivalry actually began. My young ears weren’t tuned into it during those games...

I first heard it I'd say about '74. I am convinced it didn't start with "The wánky Tottenham Hotspur". Is my memory playing tricks on me C? How is...

Indeed it does. Proper lyrical banter and a far better offering than some turgid, cockney, dewey eyed cack that even has a passage glorifying that...

They were going to Rome to see the pope when I started going in 1978. I’d say that qualifies as ‘back in the day’, no?

I flew business class with American Airlines last month. Shocking. Slightly better than economy with Emirates. Food was worse.

It is invariably both on time and a very pleasant experience. Mind you, I'm in business. Check-in at St Pancras = superb, 1-2 min from arriving to...

C'est Paris, Peter :shrug:

But at the same time I quite like it sang in the stadium, I wonder if it will stick. Wonder of you never really worked, Apart from that one night...

A taxi driver, with a hat on :D

All fair points but it's far preferable to YNWA Blue Moon I'm for ever blowing bubbles (the worst of the lot)

The Chorus is alright but the way he says London does my head in. it's so over exagerated. and for someone who grew up in The Angel I find the song...

One added bonus of the song, is how much it seems to wind opposition fans up.

I was getting set to kick off about the wilsons. The payments were likely held in a batch file and processed en-masse at EOD so it would be easy to...

I stood next to Jimmy Carr in HMV Oxford Street when a group of us was trying to get tickets for his sold-out Peterborough gig and said not a word....

That's nothing, I met Les Dennis in Caffe Nero, I say met, he was in front of me and I didn't say anything.

I have a good Elle Macpherson story as well. My old boss was at a media event and Elle was there winning an an award for her underwear marketing...

Jesus wept 🥴 https://youtu.be/wjCJv4W4kvw?si=_6OZErqEEyA4431_

I meant outlandish. But I saw her in the Doctors waiting room wearing a suit that had a newspaper print design. big red glasses and hiding behind a...

'Characters' :shudder:
