Cold Sweat Tradition meh! Looking at the Chelsea home shirts that i have hanging in my wardrobe (first purchased late 80's - last purchased early 00's) the shade of blue seemed to get significantly lighter over time; but what really dominates are the blinking sponsors names - Commodore, Amiga, Coors, Autoglass, Emirates; surely the antithesis of tradition? As for some of the away shirt abominations that i own... traditional they most certainly are not! [ more ]
Garage Joe Indeed! Fans gradually lose influence and clubs become a plaything. May it please you that when the toy owner loses interest, then it's left to the fans to pick up....... Albeit four divisions further down like. [ more ]

El Loro Originally Posted by Baz: R.I.P. I've not read any of his books ... but weren't some of them dramatised ? Quite a few of them have been. The Martian Chronicles was made into a short TV series with Rock Hudson. The Illustrated Man was made into a film with Rod Steiger. Fahrenheit 451 was made into a film which was directed by Francois Truffaut. He also did the screenplay for the 1956 version of Moby Dick. [ more ]
Carnelian Read Fahrenheit 451 many years ago but didn't get on with it too well but that was more down to my poor command of English at the time. Still, as an image of a dystopian society, it is far closer to many aspects of today's society than Big Brother, IMO. [ more ]

kimota Shabby has tweeted her agreement with Aaron. 'I think @Aaronspoppets is right. The aftercare for Big Brother is pretty dire' The whole thing has lead to one of the biggest threads on DS for a while, and predictable anti-Aaron comments and some outright crazy ones, such as the FM who compared Aaron supporters to the women who write love letters to Peter Sutcliffe [ more ]
