Greavsy 2,418 Posted June 10, 2022 @TIL 1010 Drove past me today, does that count? Played football with Paul Warne before, as used to work with his wife. My ex wife went to school with Chris Suttons sister, and my dad went on the same holiday as Suttons mum just before covid. Ate in Pizza hut (Longwater) a few years ago, and Dean Ashton was there too - after his playing days. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mr Bragg, though convicted of criminal damage was protesting at the use of ICBMs . A symbolic snipping of a fence. Sometimes the real heroes have to take one for the team, while others just .....

Agree to a certain extent, for sure things are not perfect, but the upfront bolloxswinging days of the ICBM arms race are behind us. I would go as far as to say that the CND movement though not 100% successful in complete abolishment, very much raised awareness, created discussion and cooled things down a bit......which is much preferable to where things were headed.

In part perhaps, but the socio-political changes in the late 80s mad early 90s which led to the collapse of the USSR did far more towards that then the CND did (imo obviously). Also, both sides had reached an equilibrium where there was nothing much to be gained from going bigger and better as you can only actually blow so much stuff up, the real risk comes from smaller, quickly delivered tactical missiles which weren't covered by the non-proliferation and other agreements as those are less likely to end up in MAD. Anyway, being in West cork you don't need to worry about such things, safest place to be in the event of nuclear war (though I can't help but feel esquire didn't consider most of the southern hemisphere with that appraisal) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

FenwayFrank 2,460 Posted June 11, 2022 It used to be tradition that everyone ran on the pitch after the last home game of the season. The first year the club said not to, one bloke still ran on and got Bob Rosarios shirt. Being down the front of the river end I managed to get on too. I went straight to Ian Crook who said that if I walked round with him he would ask if he was allowed to. There were the players, and me walking round, and when we got to the main stand a voice said “ right, come on then” . I turned round and there was a copper, who, funnily enough looked very much like this one ! Ian Crook turned and said “ it’s ok he’s with me “ 😁. I waited after they went down the tunnel but a member of staff came out and said no shirts would be coming out. I’ve always wondered, was it this copper ? 😁 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Last match of the season (Sunday) and the Foxes went up as champions. 1.1 draw, good long range equaliser and well deserved point.
