Nostalgia for the future.
Forces have been looting
My humanity
Curfews have been curbing

Listening to LC now 31 years later is a new experience, thank you.

Wait a minute... The ref's checking the pitch-side monitor... And in an unprecedented move, VAR has demanded that the last two England goals be disallowed! 54 years later, we're now going into extra, extra time...Marky Dread wrote: ↑23 Apr 2020, 3:59amThey're on the pitch ....they think it's all over...it is now.

Re: Author to the slaughter
Sadly the pitch-side monitor is not accessible to the ref. Too many families without TV's are crowded 'round and the ref can't get through. Both goals stand as those guys from Stockley Park are in the boozer next door celebrating.Marcus G wrote: ↑29 Dec 2020, 9:35amWait a minute... The ref's checking the pitch-side monitor...
