Monkeys Fist

Yer Auld Lad Pat Mustard is pretty popular on here just now, so he is.

Absolutely- it’s like two different bands on the same album. There’s a few tracks after the first two which are the slower burners and they’re outstanding.

Anyway, speaking of the Brothers Gutierrez… They put a new album out last year which is missed, so whacked it on, on the road. Very much in the same vein as their other albums tbh, but no less excellent. (They’re pretty much the AC/DC of instrumental slide guitar with a spaghetti western flavour, come to think of it) Here’s the title track When I’m listening to these at home, I find getting in to character makes the experience that much more enjoyable, so… …grab the poncho/picnic blanket, tuck your jeans in to your wellies, and dig out your lass’s pink glittery Stetson from her fat mate’s hen do 10 years ago, and start growling gravelly statements at the wife and kids like ” You see, in this world there's two kinds of people, my friend: Those with loaded guns and those who dig. You dig.“ Dont forget to spit some baccy juice squarely on the dog’s forehead- if you don’t have a dog, mosey on out to the front gate of your hacienda and hockle on any passing mutts. If their owners/bandidos give you any gyp, just swipe your poncho aside and show them you’re packing heat* * Fist Jnr wasn’t in to cap guns, so I’ve got to use a plastic Darth Vader light saber… not quite authentic to the Spaghetti Western theme, but the bandidos don’t mess with the sabre nonetheless.

We don’t do bans around here…

That clip man- the ball looks almost as heavy as the mud is deep Firstly, I’ll get this out the way, but Macdonald was a fucking beast in his prime, wasn’t he? I’ve got a weird memory which I think involves John Tudor… … so, I remember the captain had broken his jaw in a match, and on Look North after the kids tv, they had a bedside interview with him live from hospital. His face was swollen to fuck- looked like a chipmunk with a years dinner in his cheeks, and his jaw was very likely wired together, with an onion on his belt, as was the fashion in those days. So this poor bugger in obvious pain was being asked questions on live tv by Mike Neville, and tried his best but couldn’t answer a fucking one beyond an unintelligible mumble. I would’ve been about 6-7 I think and I clearly remember thinking “ What a waste of time, leave the poor bloke be” The uncertainty is I’m not 100% if it was John Tudor or Geoff Nulty. Anyway, RIP to one of the greats of our club Edit; just looked it up- it was Nulty Is he dead or not?

Sad really- they’d more than tested people’s patience but in the end what did for him was a KO time All he had to do was not keep deleting the tag, and he’d have still been here, shitposting away - fucking idiot

Briefly, when our departed chum signed up initially, he used his email with his first and last name and year of birth- incredibly common for email addresses tbh. This was an Arabic gentleman born in 1988. At some point, I’m not sure when, he changed his email to fit more with the persona of a lass named “something” like Monique Flanaghan or very similar. All very strange.…

That’s a long way to go for M&Ms like.

Not actually kicking off until June 3rd down your way mate, due to storms in the Indian Ocean and converting the tv signal to upside down vision. I’ll give you a shout 20 minutes before kick off. Failing to that, if you know any middle-aged Arab gentlemen, they’re bound to know.

He has the bigger tits, tbf.

Had a couple of listens to this. it’s a hit/miss for me. The slow, down tempo stuff is excellent, fantastic slide guitar on them, reminds me a little of Los Hermanos Guitierrez. Loved those. The more upbeat stuff I was distracted listening to, as it reminded me of something but I couldn’t think what. Second listen and it hit me on the first track- they sound like Lloyd Cole and the Commotions doing an Eagles tribute act Which sort of ruined it for me. I’ll come back to this once I’ve forgotten about Lloyd, as I loved their previous album, and the slower stuff on here is very nicely done. 👍

Didn’t it come with a lifetime supply of pepperoni and pocket cheese?

Typical talk from a lower league side tbh.

Wykiki getting the thousand yard stare here about the state of The Dipper at work tomorrow morning

Fmp “Oh no, Monkey _fist has edited my post- what a child!” etc. 😉

Took me a moment to realise it’s on the pylon

Gone for a break, a permanent one. Since Dazzler has stepped up, I feel it’s highly likely that we see a break from tradition and I’m going for 5-0 to us.

His brittle ankles can’t handle the clutch anymore…

Isn’t their entire emotional range just Variations on a Fewm? fewm->fucking fewming marra-> seeing black people.

I’ve just won the Lidl Lottery. Back of a 6 trolley queue, saw the green light appear on another till, was there like the Flash before it was even announced as open, shopping scanned, packed and paid and me bowling out before the first trolley in the old queue was even unpacked. What a time to be alive!

See my post in the Generic NUFC Chat thread.

Lads, Tbe match thread for City has been locked as LTA was unable to stop removing ko tags after they’d been specifically told not to. Unfortunately, my only way to stop them reposting the thread or shitposting in response was to “flag them as a spammer”, meaning that he thread, and all previous threads/posts by LTA, have gone. I apologise as it means some good stuff from you lot has temporarily gone. If someone wants to start a new match thread for City, please do so. I’ll deal with the fallout from this, but enough was enough.
