@RogerMcGuinn Hey Roger - hope you're OK. I saw you at Sheffield City Hall in 1971, along with Rita Coolidge & the Dixie Fliers. Have you any good memories of that England tour?

Fantastic Kevin Keegan story about meeting Bill Shankly for the first time, after traveling across the Pennines to Liverpool FC. Shanks offered Kev 50 quid a week wages to seal the deal.
"I met the man who was going to make me."

Following a standard workplace safety check, I have just received an email from a university administrator in which my custom of keeping books on the shelves in my office is described as "the unnecessary storing of combustible materials".

My favourite Kevin Keegan moment - the FA Cup win at Hillsborough in 1970 before a 38,000 crowd. 1-0 down early on and a comeback 2-1 win. Always remember coming out of the ground so exhilarated. Thanks for the memories, Kevin. You won't be forgotten. #UTI

The City may have shouted loudest about the dangers of Labour turning the clock back to the 1970s. But when it comes to pleading for subsidies and state protection, you can’t beat the London stock market. From my latest (link below)

This is what corporate corruption looks like in real life, a company that leaks about 100 million litres of water per day, cuts off the water supply to its customers, shareholders bled the company dry, massive lack of investment, incompetent management, sweating the assets…. and in and on…

Govt should put an end to customers misery and seize control, today..

There were no unsold tickets available for England v Norway just after England beat Mexico. Then, suddenly, these appeared on Fifa’s last-minute sales portal…

Some stats: There are 99 players at this World Cup born in France. Of those, 76 are not playing for France

(That's not just a football story. It's a history lesson) 2/5

Another example of Tory privatisation that cost taxpayers billions by selling off armed services families' homes which were then leased back at a huge cost to the taxpayer.

@frankcottrell_b Looks like a wasps' nest. Call pest control or abandon the shed for the summer!

@saleiron @Lancsiron Going to be hard to find significant money without anyone coming in and wanting complete control. That's the problem.
