Just dug the CD out and it was actually 1992! I saw them in Liverpool and believe it or not in Paris. I was younger, free and single then.

I've never been. Sorry sounded like I had. I just saw Arthur Lee on the tele when he was there. Great set and he sounded fantastic and was really enjoying the experience.

And Eric Black, of course.

Yeah, I'll dig it out. They weren't brilliant concerts music wise. Mick Head was stoned and Lee going through the motions a little in small venues, but a good experience. Not as good as when Lee appeared at Glastonbury.

I think Charlton probably have that one in the bag.

Yeah, Shack were their backing band. I saw a couple of the dates. I have a live CD somewhere. The Fountains and Shack used to play A House Is Not A Motel at most live gigs.

I'll have a look for you next time I'm in Oxfam in Warwick.

I remember a Michael Head interview from around 1982 when I first got into the Pale Fountains. He said his greatest influences were Burt Bacharach and Arthur Lee from Love. That's when I first went looking for this mysterious band called Love.

Yeah, I know. Mention Arthur Lee and most people say "Who?" Weird. They are missing out on so much brilliant music.

Yeah, me too. I also plucked out Da Capo but that will be one of my "random" records for tomorrow.

DOn't believe all the Bigi wasn't played because of money, etc. To be fair to Slade, Bigi has been shit for the majority of the season. He went through a spell at the beginning of the season where he had a few MOTM awards but has been hopeless pretty much every game he's played in since...

Put him in charge of Port Vale, Oldham AND Chesterfield. Guaranteed survival then.

Nice new avatar! Have you got a Volvo P1800 to complete the picture.

I thought I read "relieved of his duties" somewhere, so I think he has been sacked rather than walked. During the week he stated he wanted to be here for the long term.

Jody Jones and Ben Stevenson might even get a start. We can but hope.

You said it "in retrospect". I have to say I thought he would be the perfect appointment, but I got it totally wrong. I think I would rather have a "proper" manager who would be here next year rather than a stop-gap such as a Rickets/Ogrizovic "dream team".

The Coral singles is a triple album so it's taking me a while to get through these. You can have them. They are day of the week socks and they say...Tuesday. You only get what you see though.

The club will be looking to make a replacement appointment imminently... Coventry City FC has today parted company with first-team manager Russell Slade, effective immediately. The club would like to wish Russell all the very best for the future. A further announcement will follow in due...

Sam Ricketts or some other cheapo option, I guess.
