Whereas Rudd has a surfeit of sophisticates :)

P.S.: Deep Purple's drummer Ian Paice lived with his Grandmother on Priory Road, Gedling.
Now that is real sophistication.
Ian Paice was born in Nottingham, although his family moved daahn saarf when he was a youngster.

He is of course the only remaining original member of Deep Purple, and the only one to have played on everything they ever made.

I shared a bed with Alvin Stardust at school in Southwell (although 2 decades apart) - that's the glamour you're looking for.
Crikey, I didn’t have „Went to the same school as Redemption“ on my Bingo card for today, but I’m here for it!

And of course Bernard Jewry, who is still by some measure the schools‘ most famous old boy.

If we get any more injuries/unavailabilities we could be fielding our U21 team when the replay kicks off.
At the moment it looks like:
Vlachula (or Turner, or Hennessey)
Montiel Worrall Murillo Toffolo
Yates Mangala
Williams MGW CHO
Wood
Subs: Turner (or Vlachula or Hennessey), Tavares, McKenna, Danilo, then the first 5 to turn up with their boots get to sit on the bench.

His Granny still lived on Priory road, and my mate lived next door and says Paice would be a regular visitor, stopping overnights.

I'm old enough to remember the Allan Browne days when we were delighted to get another match because it meant more money in the coffers.
Anyway, money matters aside, with Nuno's Red and White Army and the new project, the team could do with the added match practice!

Never knew that about Paice being a Bottom lad, just that Alvin Lee was raised somewhere near me in Wollaton

You know you can edit your original posts, yes?

You don’t have to reply to yourself to correct mistakes?

And one tip - on a phone, you can use the mobile website for the Forum instead of Tapatalk, which offers significantly more features, including support for things like Polls - give it a try in any browser:

Don’t cancel the mid season break - stay with the original ( team bonding ) plan. Just hire a charabanc & send the youth team off with their buckets & spades for a day at the seaside…
 
Reminds me of an unsuccessful chat-up line often employed by young lads from Gedling:
"Aye up, mi duck!
You gorrenny Gedling in yer?
No?... Want some?".

We were sophisticated in our youth in the borough.

Oft used abroad but replace Gedling with English.

The only sophisticated thing to ever come out of Gedling was Richard Beckinsale, and he’s dead.

Went to my school.

Bloody hell, that channel is showing something apart from Sweeney repeats?

Pictures Nuno kicking in the Blackpool dressing room door: 'We're the Forest, and we haven't had any dinner!'
