Site Supporter Tonge moor green jacket Posted November 30, 2023 Site Supporter Share Posted November 30, 2023 Recently released from hospital after being treated for encephalitis. Seems a bit of a miracle he lasted so long. Definite no.1, especially as they've both gone now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not in Crawley Posted November 30, 2023 Share Posted November 30, 2023 Well that's proper sad, but no unexpected given the recents pics of him in hospital. Right, time for a bit of Rum Sodomy and The Lash methinks...A Rainy Night in Soho is perfection. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Site Supporter Biggish Dave Posted November 30, 2023 Site Supporter Share Posted November 30, 2023 I've had him for a few years after watching The Pogues in Manchester around 7 years ago. Love the band and I was surprised he lasted as long as he did. RIP Shane Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Admittedly I was a bit pissed but I was almost, (almost cos I’m a bloke from Bolton) in tears. I’ll see if I can find it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
