Best 3 Days Following Bolton
1 - the Win vs Preston at Burnden, can't remember the year, but we had to win to go up, they had to win to stay up. 2 - Reading play-off, the transition from pure despair to pure joy 3 - Preston play-off, best day out I've had with football

Anyone Else Changed Their Minds?
I don't agree Cassy. the plan can stay the same, and we have to try our best to keep players - if the players believe the club is moving forward, they'll stay for regular football and good money. Nolan could've left several times a couple of years back, but stayed cus we were moving forward. Obviously, for example, if Muamba is a huge success and has a great two years, and gets offered a return to Arsenal or a move to Liverpool - he'll go. But we'll make money and it gets reinvested in the team, the plan stays the same. United's main plan was Ronaldo - he'll go, they'll reinvest and the plan is still the same.

Anyone Else Changed Their Minds?
He was employed to keep us up... he did his job. His next task is to improve on that with a new team, we've rebooted. Success for me this year is to be comfortable mid-table and a decent cup run. The year after, improve again, look to win a cup or push for UEFA again. I'm pleased with the fact he's looking to build a younger side that can stay together for a few years and be added to, rather than Allardyce's "it'll do for now" signings. Bolton fans are only happy when there's something to moan about, so no matter what he does he'll never be onside with the majority.

Currently Listening To.......
Personally I think it's refreshing to see a band who actually evolve their craft and see growth in music. Most bands are one-dimensional (Oasis eg) and turn out pretty much the same thing time and time again. Coldplay have clearly grown as writers and musicians from the simplistic indie 'Parachutes' to the wonderfully produced "X&Y" and the new offering is even better, the production, songwriting and musicianship is superb. I don't particularly care for Chris Martin as a personality (perhaps oxymoronic), but as a band Coldplay are, for me, the best in the world - not my favourite - but the best. Because they don't sing about drugs, alcohol and f*cking and they didn't come from Manchester or the working class, people don't like them cus it isn't cool to do so

Gig @ Jabez Clegg, Manchester - July 17th
Arite folks, my new band is playing at Jabez Clegg in Manchester on July 17th (Thurs). The venue is on Portsmouth Street, just off Oxford Road near the Academy/Student Union buildings. It's ?5 with a flyer - email me at redgreenuk@hotmail.com and I'll send one over. As a rough guide, we're along the lines of Stereophonics/Oasis/Manics with a hint of the Foos. www.myspace.com/redgreenuk

I Know It's Over
Beat me to it, it's on 5th fret on the chicago dvd and thats the version i learned, easier to sing it the step down at 3rd though, but the guitar doesn't sound as good.
-
I Know It's Over
Legend, his live in chicago dvd is top notch, Hallelujah (his version) is the most awe-inspiring piece of music I've heard. I usually play a bit of it as a soundcheck, I'd never gig it though. RIP

6+5 Rule
FIFA have backed it however it would be illegal under EU law, so it'll never come into the English leagues or anywhere else in Europe where 'too many foreigners' is a 'problem'

Jussi
doesn't matter who's better - if Al Habsi's ear's been bent by his agent, it's all irrelevant. Getting Jussi signed up is a good move.
