I think we need to put on some sort of fundraising concert akin to Live Aid, all proceeds going towards long-suffering LCFC fans' mental health services. I'm on guitar, we just need drums, vocals, bass and keys. Who's in?!

If that aim is to raise money, I should stay away from vocals, and I've got the Xbox 360 rock band low scores to prove it . I think I'm just about qualified to play a triangle.

There's absolutely boatloads more songs. Jake will have to make sure to get some of them out soon else the players they're ripping may well (hopefully) be gone. 

 

Anon Fox and I have collaborated on a more positive number to come soon, too. It's truly epic.

I've been driving about listening to the ones I wrote lyrics for, plus sausage roll, prepare for interviews and internal review part 2, and that's apparently a 15 track list that's an hour long. I imagine your list is even longer! We are well past album length now, into 3-4 disc compilation set territory 

Ayew and winks based tracks have an expiry date based on their victims/subjects. Top and Rudkin songs are evergreen content, always a future opportunity where you might need them later.

International breaks have been the best part of the last 2 seasons. Gives you a weekend off from football.

Thank you. 

 

It will get better. It just takes time. You just have to believe it can.

As a Mackem, do you think it's entirely a coincedence that both your clubs and ours have done the back to back double relegation, off the back of horrific recruitment, and we both happen to have employed both Lee Congerton and Martyn Glover as recruitment guys in the run up to that? Were this gruesome twosome just as bad at your place, or was it some other bods more to blame?

The only positive results we will get is if someone drug tests the first team to test for Horlicks.

Is that true? THought Hamza was a Muslim

On 19 January 2024, Choudhury was caught drink driving on the wrong side of the road in West Bridgford after leaving his phone behind in a restaurant. He was given a driving ban and was fined £20,000 by Nottingham Magistrates' Court.[49]

Court seemed to think it was true

Just do the Lionel Hutz "no money down" approach.

Foxes? Never! Quit.

Another great episode, struck the perfect tone for the days events. Great job from the lads and all the callers. Another top tune from @Anonymous F.O.X. as well, great lyrics and tune, gave Teflon Jon a verbal kicking from just about every possible direction

Lets start calling out things we hate more than Mavididi 

 

I hate being sat with my gran watching Tipping Point 

So, Jon and Top, which one are you going for?

"Err, drop zone number 3 please, Ben"

Jesus christ, Lib. That photoshop is nightmare fuel. 

Lads are ready for this one.

I enjoyed your fans chanting "Champions of England, you'll never sing that" this afternoon. Obviously we didn't want to upset your already melancholy fan base further by replying "Champions of England twice, back to back, you'll never sing that". Still, should be safe enough singing it in league 1 next year, couple of nice pubs in Wycombe too so it's a win win really, all the best lads. (Still bitter about your offside goal in the 89' playoffs!!)

VICHAI HAD A DREAM

...

CHAMPIONS OF ENGLAND YOU MADE US SING THAT

"You" = Vichai. Remember - died in a helicopter crash, big news several years ago?

Has Gavin Ward ever had a competent match in his entire career? It's been over 10 years and he never changes.

Not thought this through, have they. Asking for player of the season, and thanks to Richards there is literally an option pronounced Do One.

This is useful.

 

I came here to ask (not sure if the right place), what hobbies or clubs would people recommend?

 

I'm nearing 40. Go to the gym and play football every week, but other than that (and sitting in cafés and pubs), I don't do a lot. I feel like i need another interest (have binned off my ST too) but cant even think what that might be. I know everyone has their own interests, but I was wondering if anyone has picked something new up that's helped keep them in a more positive head space? 

I don't know if it's a big difference to my head space, but I'm 40 as well and last year got back into doing Airfix models, after I had been to Coventry Air Museum and Cosby Victory show in the summer and seen too many of them for sale. Having a grand old time so far, built about 6 or 7 models now, and got a stash of others ready to start that will last a few years . It's fun to do something creative, you get something tangible to look at when your done, and you learn new skills along the way. Doesn't need loads of time investing either, in fact some days it's better to do a few little bits for 5 minutes then leave things to dry until tomorrow. Helps with your YouTube algorithm a bit as well, instead of standard doom and gloom you start getting vids of people making cool looking planes, model towns and all sorts in there, much nicer.

Cooper's singings had all the hallmarks of Cooper signings, can't believe people don't think he had any input into the most 100% nailed on Steve Cooper singings ever.

 

Look at the Forest signings, random Euro players with some from Olympiakos (club/ownership) and then there's experienced PL players like Shelvey, Chris Wood, Emmanuel Dennis then there's the former U17s he worked with like MGW, CHO, Aina and of course there was an... Ayew.

 

Couldn't be clearer. Ayew, BDCR and Skipp were what he wanted.

Also, didn't he have the same agent as Okoli as well?

Just watched Ben Fosters podcast with Les Reed (who comes across as a massively underrated individual in regards to these roles I must say) and he references our restructure as a new norm (1 hr 24 mins for those that want to look) as basically Rudkin getting a clearer path/autonomy between the owner and the "football director" (however you want to package them) which sounded about right. This isn't a restructure, it's a tidy up for it to be exactly how it already was already when Whelan was in place, if we didn't already know it - Rudkin and Top run the show, that is all. 

Feel sorry for Mccarron when he gets his contract emailed to him and the attachment filename is operationscapegoat.docx 

League One again, Naturally by Peter Gilbert O'Sullivan

[Verse 1]
Oh, in a few months from now
If I'm not feeling any less sour
I promised myself
To treat myself
And visit a Mansfield Town

And sitting in the kop
hearing a pin drop
We make no effort to
Avoid League 2
When we play Bromley and get battered

Left watching Jannick lurch, like a birch
Tree that is swaying
"My God, why did you
Let them run straight through?
3 down with 10 remaining

We may as well go home"
As I did on my own
League 1 again, naturally

[Verse 2]
Feels like only yesterday
European football we could play
against Seville
Or a semi final
We travelled to Rome away

But our incompetence knows no bounds
Reality came around
Rudkin showed so much
Reverse Midus touch
Left a squad that was pure faeces

Waiting to descend
The U-Bend, of English football
In the drop zone flushed away
into total freefall

A useless bunch of clowns
Who always let you down
League 1 again, naturally

[Bridge]
It seems to me that there are so many tickets not renewed
That can't be mended
Ground unattended
What do we do?
What do we do?

[Classical Guitar Break]

[Pre-Verse]
League 1 again, naturally

[Verse 3]
Now looking back over this year
There's been very little for us to cheer
We hit the bricks
Got a minus six
And some half price training gear

And in a King Power sweater
An angry pair of Ginetta's
Couldn't understand
Why the other fans
About Top rude words had spoken

It was clear from the start
With a club so badly broken
Despite promising changes to us
No actions were ever taken

And with no lessons learned
We obliviously returned
League 1 again, naturally
League 1 again, naturally

Standard current era KPFC lap of dishonour song

Just kidding. They don't know they've let us down. Bonus points for "It all returns to nothing" while accompanied by sporadic hand clapping though. Very on brand.
