Their amazing 1983 album

Their second album from 1981

(All credit goes to the YouTuber called 'The Football Terrace') This one is as mad as it sounds. If Manchester City had done this, there'd be demands for them to be kicked out of not just the Premier League but the Football League as well. Just WTF...

A retrospective lookback at England's first true football superstar - before Beckham and Rooney, there was Kevin Keegan. Born in Scunthorpe, Lincolnshire, Keegan caught the eye of legendary Liverpool manager Bill Shankly who moulded him into one of the great Liverpool teams of the 1970s. A move to Hamburg in the late 1970s, after becoming an established England International, was then followed by stints at Southampton and Newcastle United. After retiring as a player, Kevin Keegan returned to football as the manager of Newcastle United in 1992, working for then owners Sir John Hall and Freddy Sheppard as they sought to rival Liverpool and Manchester United for honours.

Just some thoughts from yours truly, with additional comments from a nameless source close to YouTuber Neil Sean about what happens if the General Election has to be delayed, suspended or even cancelled due to the violence and idiocy we've seen in Clacton and Barnsley against Nigel Farage as well as assaults on members of other parties across the UK.

Avril Lavigne refused to sing this (not) classic... a good career move possibly!

Had a few requests for this one, therefore here it is - just for you! Featuring the original version of 'Ride Into The Sun' (which was re-worded and re-recorded many years later as the B-side for 'Hysteria' (1987) and also for 'Retroactive' (1993) - a new version each time) as well as 'Getcha Rocks Off' and 'The Overture' which would appear on their debut album 'On Through The Night' a year later (though 'The Overture' would simply be called 'Overture' and would be the last song on the album). Band personnel: Joe Elliott - Lead Vocals Rick Savage - Bass Guitar & Vocals Pete Willis -Guitar Steve Clark - Guitar Frank Noon - Drums (replaced by Rick Allen shortly after).

The first home match of the Sam Hammam era, and the season when a young Zambian-born striker would make his name on the Football League - Robert Earnshaw. After buying Cardiff City in the Summer of 2000, Hammam, Bobby Gould and manager Billy Ayre (RIP) were tasked with rebuilding the club after a disastrous season in the old Division 2. A new squad was assembled, though Jason Bowen, Willie Boland, Danny Hill, Mark Bonner, Andy Legg, Jon Hallworth, Scott Young, Josh Low, Matt Brazier (RIP) and Kevin Nugent stayed on from the previous campaign. In came Paul Brayson, Mark Walton, Danny Gabbidon and David Greene with Gethin Jones (not that one!) stepping up from the Youth Team alongside Earnshaw. Blackpool have been Cardiff's 'bogey' team for many years - we simply never do that well against them and this Blackpool team had some quality players, none more so than future Premier League striker Brett Ormerod who started his career at now long defunct side Great Harwood Town. Mike Milligan and Mike Newell had Premier League experience at Everton and stayed with the Lancashire club that season despite their poor finances and controversial (now former) owner Owen Oyston - a convicted rapist and friends with Peter Sutcliffe, Jimmy Savile and Stuart Hall no less. A baking hot August Saturday in South Wales would see a cracker of a match!

There I am at 22:13 :) A great match and a fantastic way to get the fourth Rugby World Cup under way!

Where it all began for the legends!

I think that Queen cover it all, regarding my feelings about this complete toss pot. #ResignNowGething

The classic final from 1991 when Brian Clough's Nottingham Forest finally made it to Wembley to face Terry Venables' Tottenham Hotspur who were £20m in debt but whom had an easier path to the finals beating Blackpool, Oxford United, Portsmouth, Notts. County and London rivals Arsenal (this match was the first Semi-Final to be played at Wembley). Nottingham Forest, meanwhile, needed replays against Crystal Palace, Newcastle United and Southampton before beating Norwich and West Ham United en route to Wembley. Despite reaching the last four in 1988 and 1989 (the year of the Hillsborough tragedy) when Liverpool were their opponents in the FA Cup Semi Finals for two years running, Nottingham Forest had not won the FA Cup since the great man took charge in 1975. Success in Europe was by now a distant memory (1979 & 1980) though a new generation of players had taken the Midland side to Wembley the previous year in the League Cup Final where Luton Town were beaten 3-1. This was the one trophy Clough was desperate to win after years of trying. Tottenham Hotspur, on the other hand, had not won the FA Cup in 10 years since their replayed final against Manchester City (that first match ending 1-1 when Tommy Hutchinson - a former coach of mine - famously scored at both ends.. oops!) 'When the year ends with 1 it's Tottenham's' is he famous chant, but would it be the Londoners or the Midlanders who'd win this one? Pearce v Lineker, Gazza v Keane - this is a true classic!

A true classic from the archives - the full programme (over four hours) of the 1995 FA Cup Final with underdogs Everton taking on Manchester United, the then Champions of England under the management of the legendary Alex Ferguson (now Sir Alex Ferguson). The match itself starts at 2 hrs 35 minutes into the video.

A true classic from the archives - an all-London final from 1980 with then Second Division West Ham United taking on First Division Arsenal. After Sunderland and Southampton (Second Division sides through most of the 1970s) had beaten bigger opponents and won the FA Cup (1973 for Sunderland and 1976 for Southampton) West Ham United were desperate to prove that the smaller clubs could still win at Wembley - however, they were a side packed with talent and none more so than striker Trevor Brooking who would play a pivotal part in the match.

The classic match from 1983 as plucky underdogs Brighton & Hove Albion took on Manchester United at the old Wembley Stadium for the 1983 FA Cup after the first match finished in a 2-2 draw.

From exactly 10 years ago: Matches featured include Reading v Burnley, Nottingham Forest v Brighton & Hove Albion, Leicester City v Doncaster Rovers and Bolton Wanderers v Birmingham City as well as all the games from League 1 and League 2.

Apparently, the brothers Wilson overlooked the possibility of recording this 60s (not) hit.

It's been a while since I did a spoken word video, therefore here's my thoughts on why the General Election is not a foregone conclusion, Labour cracks and splits and also thoughts on Youth Demand, Just Stop Oil, Palestine Action etc. and their possible violent threats and protests during Purdah.

As a Welshman, I will still be cheering on both England and Scotland at the forthcoming Euro 2024 tournament in Germany. Written in tribute to England's World Class striker, Harry Kane, this song parodies The Scorpions 1984 classic 'Rock You Like A Hurricane'.

A truly underrated 70s (non) rock classic. Still better than Taylor Swift and Ed Sheerhan!

Amazing!

Back in May 2003, Cardiff City and QPR (Queens Park Rangers) met at Cardiff's Millennium Stadium in the Division 2 Play Off Final. After going close the year before, losing to Stoke in the semi-finals of the Playoffs, Cardiff were determined to get it right this time and an aggregate 1-0 win over two legs against fierce rivals Bristol City meant that they had the chance to win on home soil. QPR, meanwhile, had an up and down season - doing well in the league (finishing 4th) but lost 4-0 at home to Cardiff City and were knocked out of the FA Cup by Non-League side Vauxhall Motors! They did, however, beat Cardiff City 2-1 at Ninian Park and won five games in a row twice (winning all of their league games in September and winning all of their league games between March 29th and April 21st 2003) before overcoming Oldham Athletic (now a Non League sides themselves) 2-1 on aggregate thus setting up a trip down the M4 to South Wales. This is a classic match for many reasons - both sides played extremely well and matched each other man for man, and it would take one moment of brilliance to win it... but for which team?

A side - Grass (Single Edit) B side - 1) Extrovert and 2) Dear God
