Super Furry Animals.

 

[City Soul Boy]

Steve penk ex dj at piccadilly radio , does anyone remember on the match commentary in the eighties everytime a goal was scored they would say ITS A GOAL and go straight to the ground , also he went on to do a few tv programmes of his own .

I remember that, also, if a goal went in against a north west side, the news was greeted with an 'Oh Nooo' before they went off to the ground...

A lot better than Jeff Stelling and Phil Thompson etc talkin arse!

Forgot about the Oh nooo went the goal went against you, I used to get a sick feeling when i heard that hoping it was'nt against city !

Sure I've read somewhere Alan Rickman is a blue, something to do with a cameraman on one of his films, or is this just nonsense?


Hope it's true, Hans Kruger is a blue!

"I will count to three, there will not be a four"

 

[WidnesBlue23]

Yeah Ive heard this too but he hasnt been added to this list.

Apparently he lurks on here too

 

[BlueForever123]

Alan Rickman is definitely a blue....there was a whole thread out it on here a while ago. Didn't he mention to someone that he comes on this site too?

 

[pavelsrnicek]

fomer english rugby international (and briefly captain) Pat Sanderson is a blue as is Irish former Politician and radio presenter Ivan Yeates.

Pretty sure that Michelle Keegan listed above is a rag

 

[blueyorkie]

Guy Mowbray MOTD commentator, on advice from Motson he keeps it quiet saying he is a York fan(his local team, who he does follow).
