stewdogg Posted June 25, 2021 Posted June 25, 2021 Today I learned that the song on the postcode lottery 'sombodys knocking at the door, someboys ringing the bell' is a real song. It's by Paul McCartney and Wings no less! Feel a bit of a tit that I never knew that. Quote

Paid Members Jazzy G Posted June 25, 2021 Paid Members Posted June 25, 2021 It's a belter, from Wings At The Speed Of Sound. It's no Band On The Run, but it's a decent album. Quote

Divorced Dad Posted June 26, 2021 Posted June 26, 2021 Today I learned cows are fucking terrifying. Went to a friends house out in the sticks for a few beers and decided to walk home cross country. Got charged by a field of cows and had to climb a barbed wire fence to escape them. Quote

RIDDUM_N_STYLE Posted June 27, 2021 Posted June 27, 2021 (edited) Today I learned, via the Football Chiches podcast that two of the 3 lines of punditry from the opening to the seminal football song ‘Three Lions’, spoken by Alan Hansen (‘it’s bad news for the English game’) and Jimmy Hill (we’ll go on getting bad results’) weren’t actually from an England international but rather from the post match analysis of Nottingham Forest’s 5-1 hammering by Bayern in the UEFA Cup in 1996 It was in response to a season where all English teams were dumped out of Europe in some fashion Manchester United - 1st round of UEFA Cup on away goals to Rotor Volgograd Liverpool - 2nd round of UEFA Cup 1-0 on aggregate to Brondby Leeds - 2nd Round of UEFA Cup 8-3 on aggregate to PSV Forest - Quarter Finals of UEFA Cup 7-2 on aggregate to Bayern Blackburn - Bottom of their Champions League group Everton - 2nd round of Cup Winners Cup 1-0 on aggregate to Feyenoord Sheffield Wednesday - Group stage of Intertoto Cup finishing 2nd in group Tottenham - Group stage of Intertoto Cup, finishing 4th and included and 8-0 hiding by Koln Wimbledon - Group stage of Intertoto Cup, finishing 4th without winning a game Spurs and Wimbledon were banned from Europe after this for playing weakened sides Edited June 27, 2021 by RIDDUM_N_STYLE Quote
