@Yorkshire_Tales There was a conveyor belt of Leeds players to Rochdale when Eddie Gray became manager in 1986. That's definitely Simmonds, Steve O'Shaughnessy (back row number 2) and possibly Mark Gavin (front row number 4).

@Soccer_Stats Unless I've misunderstood it...Rochdale 1921-2023.

@jonnyrmitch The Chameleons influenced so many non-Manc bands e.g. Interpol plus Manc bands too. You can hear The Chams in the darker parts of the Stone Roses' first album e.g. Made of Stone/Tears & Adored/Swamp Thing.

@missrteach6 I've been teaching SPAG since the new tests came in (in 2016) and to put this in, at question 29, is insidious. I'd love to have been a fly on the wall when they wrote and agreed on the questions. What a grim bunch of people. Bet they're proud of themselves.

@SarahFarrellKS2 Thank you for posting this. I thought exactly the same. If they have to put a question like this in, at least make it question 50. I still feel that "stream" is implied at the end of the sentence and "across" could be argued to be a preposition.

@footballmemorys Think I'm right in saying five of them won European Cup winners medals although only three played the full 90/120.

@archivetvmus71 Having Hilda smiling proudly in the background while Emily and Annie discuss the painting is genius!

@ShiiineOn_ @inspiralsband If you got to Picc Records (in MCR) early upon release, you got a signed MOVE 12". The B-side is MOVE IN - one of their best. It repeats I CAN'T FEEL YOU MOVEEEEE and still gets me to this day. Still remember waiting for my bus on Oldham St and to take it home to play. GREAT SONG

@SuperbFootyPics That asymmetrical middle row never ceases to baffle me.

@BBCSport The BBC has no idea how to use semi-colons.

@NFFC @adidasfootball Is it hot water in the toilets?

@MrTrickyTree I sat on the Trent End front row v Leicester towards the corner flag. View was dreadful due to the ad boards, photographers and stewards. Literally couldn't see half the TE net without standing up which brings its own problems. This will be the same. AVOID!!

[hmmmm. \o/ @rainfallfan]

@memorialdevice They had to make an LP to get out of the record deal withy Statik. A few of the songs were old ones redone to speed things up (Looking Inwardly was on the 1st Peel session). Some of it could sound better too (Reg's guitar is missing from HIWTHI). Still a classic though!

[hmmmm. \o/ @rainfallfan]

@noellearchives Fun fact: they wrote this song with Chris Hughes, the drummer from Adam and the Ants (who also produced the album), but they didn't realise who he was until he started adding percussion parts.

@HotLaMon38 @isaacturnersong Maybe y as in y-fronts? And the y in birthday girl?

@timkeyperson WE NEED MORE OF THE RADIO 4 COMEDY SHOW (the alleged "poetry" one). It's the only thing that makes me laugh. Thank you.

[hmmmm. \o/ @rainfallfan]

@vickyinatutu If you put all those Spotify artists into one huge Venn Diagram, The Chameleons would be right in the middle.

@MerriamWebster You missed hiccough.

@Smiths_history Never listen to the a-side; both b-sides forever in my Smiths top ten.
