[unknown] She was on bail pending a court case for hitting her sleeping boyfriend over the head with a lamp.

Fucking wuss. My wifes from Manchexster. She does shit like this to me if she even dreams I've done something wrong.

Is this death the biggest ever example of virtue signalling on the history of the UK internet?

Harry Gregg. There's not been many footballers like him.

Flaneur

Proper hero him.

Loose_Lips

What a life he's led. And talk about enough personal grief to finish you off through the rest of his life.

heyho

[unknown] Ahh the irony of the same press that have chased and harassed her since the court case are now wanting action to ensure such suicides are avoided.

Old mate of my dad's, a big Man U fan, handed over his prized possession,a photo of the Busby Babes,just before he passed away,with Harry Gregg on there.
My old fella still has the photo and reckons it might be worth a bob or two...not that he'd ever sell it on mind.

As stated above, a proper hero.

RIP

heyho they could accept regulation that isn't voluntary. Or just close themselves down. Or lastly, just do it better like James Mitchinson does at the YP.

Good lord.

Yeah fucking hell. I'm off for a pint.

Loose_Lips

Fail we may, sail we must.

Ken_Kapstick

This one hurts a bit. Loved what he did

Weatherall, fucking hell. Apparently, when Kraftwerk played Tribal Gathering at Luton Hoo, 1997, no one else allowed on before them, other than AW. Him and his Two Lone Swordsmen sound system played eight hours, straight, before Kraftwerk did their two hours.
Just one bit of the legend and his legacy.
Seriously going to be missed.

Under-the-ground

Just saw this. Absolutely no age. A true original. So many good tracks.

another one gone. Gutted.

Bod

Very sad, a real talent gone too soon, did some great stuff. RIP

Raposa

heyho
Serious question,what have the press/media done exactly?
I get the bit about the trolls,given that Twatter and FB is, apparently riddled with them.
Just curious about the media bit.

heyho

Raposa I get the impression celebrities (ermm who need the media to survive) are getting a bit pissed off when the media are exaggerating thinks. Bless 'em - they want the law changed to protect them.

They are the least I'd be worried about - live by the sword, die by the sword. But i do think the law needs tightening up in general regarding the reporting of stuff appertaining to pending court cases.

I will say it again - someone is innocent until proven guilty or admits guilt

fulmine What do you make of the Astros signal stealing scandal?

Jon There’s a huge amount of anger about it all, lot of bitterness among the Dodgers and Yankees in particular. Can’t imagine MLB will take the title away from the Astros but there’s always going to be an asterisk next to their World Series win. On the other hand, there is a bit of a retro thrill about it all and sod it, anything that winds up the Yankees has to be a good thing. Apparently some of their fans turned up for Astros spring training today and kept banging metal bins (one of the ways Astros staff would let players know signs was by banging signals on bins during games). Dodgers and Yankees fans have bought huge amount of tickets for an Astros game in Anaheim in April. Could get a bit lively.

Jon

Apparently the umpires have said they won’t stand for any retaliation. The implication seems to be pitchers might just start throwing balls at Astros batters. Agree on anything that gets the Yankees flustered been a good thing.

No idea if they’d be your thing or not but I have a couple of these t shirts. Good quality. https://www.ebbets.com/collections/t-shirts
