Andy Partridge (ex-XTC). Probably the most unknown, underrated writer of the ‘perfect pop song’ there’s ever been😁

How many signings do you think we need light?. 1,2,3,4,5?

posted on 17/8/23

The one huge difference I'm clinging to between 2004 & now is we have a manager who has won this league twice before, & not a Kevin Blackwell.

That said, we still need 5 or 6 signings.

The Mayor of Simpleton aka Radz may have left but have we got trust in our new Generals and Majors? I don't know - it's a Complicated Game...

Fair question … bland answer would be 1+ … ok, I’d be accepting of two good ‘uns … striker and left back👍

We're only making plans for Gnonto, we only want what's best for him.

I used to be in band in Halifax in the 70s & 80s and XTC were our heroes. In fact, NME referred to us as: '...a low-flying XTC'. We also met them backstage after seeing them at Knickers nightclub in Keighley. A really friendly bunch of lads, particularly Andy Partridge, who showed us how to play some of his strange chords.

Some of XTC's stuff was wierd, I bought drums and wires but it was trashed by some of my Uni flat mates (long story, Dave W will always be held responsible). Never replaced.
Also trashed my 12 inch version of Atmosphere now there's a record.

Great story👍. Yep, Andy P somehow seems to have managed to keep grounded all his professional life … still recording in his garden shed in Swindon😁

Marathe has a back up plan. He said , if it doesn’t work out with Farke, ‘Sergeant Wilko’s going to help me’

posted on 17/8/23

So I think maybe up to 8 out of this list of 14 players that have been rumoured around social media we can realisticly expect Farke to have identified as the calibre of player he intends to bring to Leeds.... in no particular order:

Harwood Bellis-CB
Nat Philips CB
Pantelis Chatzidiakos CB
Taylor LB
Kamara midfield
O'Brien midfield
Fraser Winger
Matondo Winger
Chris Wood Striker
McBurnie Striker
Archer Striker
Canon Striker
Piroe Striker
Dykes Striker

"Knickers nightclub in Keighley."

Lorra, I used to fall out off many a pub in Keighley and land in the Knickers or Fun house!..

Sometimes had no idea how I made it home, and that was after the Curry shop!..

Getting new signings in before the deadline will be a struggle – however, Farke's Working Overtime

----------------------------------------------------------------------
Being from Brighouse, Keighley was too far to go drinking but it certainly had a reputation for being lively. And as a nightclub, Knickers was a star that shone briefly but very brightly. I also saw the S@x Pistols and The Motors there.

posted on 17/8/23

Was that the time when the S@x Pistols got done because off their fans puking and pissing from the balcony?..

Had a few punk mates that were there to, I was and still am a metal fan, so I left them to their own thing!.
