The Dead Thread

Sinead O'Connor. No just no. Loved her, loved her music. A troubled soul, misguided and outspoken (to say the least) but she didn't shy away from her beliefs.

Especially religion. I’m talking about how she called out the Catholic Church, how it ballsed up Ireland. Its oppressive views on abortion, women’s rights, gay rights etc alongside child abuse! 😡

Anyone disagree with me, I don't care. People like me give a toss about that kind of thing.

I agree

Not many people are brave enough to stand up and fight for what they believe, she did.

Mental health has effected most of my life, it ruined my childhood and has made most of my adult life difficult. She struggled whith her own demons. I think her sons death was her tipping point. It is so easy for people to judge others when they have never walked in their shoes.

Bless her. I hope she has found peace.

Duncan McKenzie always tells the story about when Trevor Francis signed for Forest.
Brian Clough - "Whenever you get the ball, just pass to John Robertson"
Francis - "but you've just paid a million quid for me. Why do you want me to always pass it to him?"
Clough - "Because young man, John Robertson is a far better footballer than you will ever be" lol

Watched ‘The Damned United’ again for the umpteenth time the other day, and Michael Sheen channels an excellent Cloughie. Sad to know that all of the characters have gone. I mean, we’re left with the likes of Jimmy ‘Bantz’ Bulllard now - I miss old football. 🤷🏻‍♂️😔

Stinging. Although quite unsavoury with some of his points of view, it's good he has used such barbarous behaviour to smite the hypocrites that parasitically occupy the music scene.

Beth Orton managed to say pretty much the same thing, while managing not to make it about herself or sound like an obnoxious, pretentious 15 year old.

I hate Morrissey. Detestable prick.
