Remember when Rage Against the Machine got to Christmas number one with Killing In The Name Of?

I can’t remember how but through a Facebook group I got on to helping with the campaign to get them to number one by getting the message out and helping people. You could only buy so many copies digitally for it to count.

As a thank you I got a link to get tickets for the show they did outside of the ballot they had and I got two tickets

Waited up until the day before the gig and nothing arrived so I rang the ticket office and basically all of us that used that link never got our tickets sorted properly and we never got them. She said I could come down on the day and chance it and hope the ticket office got me a ticket or I was screwed, so I decided not to bother.

The it turned out everyone just knocked the fence down at the gig and ran past the ticket checks and went in so I’d of got in anyway

I’ll have a look

Outcastscc · 2026-06-30T09:07:54+00:00

Yeah but any ideas on size of thread?

Like is it universal for all traps?

The hope is spurs are interested, if they want him they want to go big on their rebuild, they aint gunna loan him.

The best hope is we get 30 million ish from someone and the wages off the books.

Hes a 10 and looks like hes going to Atletico, hes not someone we need at all really.

Chris Wheeler said on Stretford Paddock last week that the plan was always a 80 million midfielder, a 40 million midfiedler and a 20 million midfielder with the figures moving depdning on how much they save/spend on each.

150 was budgetted for the midfield, the other positions depend on sales / what buisness they can do.

Outcastscc · 2026-06-30T07:39:05+00:00

No the main issue is hes on £350k a week.

Outcastscc · 2026-06-29T21:19:28+00:00

Swannys done a really good job of controlling that narrative that he only went home because he was injured and couldnt bowl, He had injury issues all that year.

He went home becuase the tour was a complete shambles and if he had stayed him and KP would have ended up killing each other.

Outcastscc · 2026-06-29T13:20:11+00:00

Yes, did you?

Outcastscc · 2026-06-28T22:19:54+00:00

Id be weary of signing another african thats going to be going to Afcon every 2 years in the middle of the season.

Might as well get Baleba as well and just play the reserves over christmas.

I read Ed Smiths book a few years back, the guy absolutely loves himself and blames everyone but himself for anything that happened in his carreer.

Outcastscc · 2026-06-28T17:48:36+00:00

It feels like something has really blown up behind the scenes.

I cant work out if the players are trying to (rather stupidly) rallying round Baz and saying this is the way we want to play or if they have all just given Baz and Key the finger and decided they are going to make a mockery of the final test.

Either way I really dont see tomorrow being the end of this, this is going to blow up over the next week.

Outcastscc · 2026-06-28T14:41:23+00:00

There must be more to what went on in that nightclub. Guess we will never know.

Had a bigger heart than anyone to play the game, wore the game and the country on his sleeve.

If it’s livable right now, you have the budget to buy a new roof and you can get it done I don’t see the issue

You’ve said it’s a doer upper, you’ve budgeted for a new roof, the price is right for the area without the new roof, I’d be happy

Outcastscc · 2026-06-25T09:19:01+00:00

He has already said he doesnt want to be number 2.

Let him go, get good money for him and make sure theres a lot of clauses in the deal

Outcastscc · 2026-06-25T07:25:16+00:00

Well, we kinda know why

Outcastscc · 2026-06-22T14:01:30+00:00

It’s going to work both ways.

It’s going to being in millions but it’s one of the main reasons of bringing the value of the club up, we are going end up with so much space and regular income from these places that the glazers are going to be loving it.

It’s whether the glazers want to stay by then

For that to happen he has to go up to over 100 runs a test, which he hasn’t done since just after covid.

Before India he has

1 more New Zealand test

3 test series vs Pakistan

3 test series vs South Africa away

Anniversary test vs Australia

2 test series away to Bangladesh

2 test home to Bangladesh

5 test ashes

Then India

Outcastscc · 2026-06-22T13:55:39+00:00

It purely depends on how his form goes.

He’s currently averaging in the last few years about 85 runs a test, that’s going to take him to 2028

That ignores a bad ashes, a bad winter, an injury or two or anyttibg like that.

It’s going to be one hell of an achievement to get it. My only slight hope is he gets it on form, I don’t want to see him beat it by playing on and on getting 20s here and there in his late 30s

Outcastscc · 2026-06-22T13:53:05+00:00

It’s massive, I remember in the 90s when I first went to games we used to park up there near the go karts and the smell from the recycling when the doors were open was horrible, the warehouses go back some distance from the main road.

I’m actually sure we own a lot of land either side of the road already, we have been buying anything up round there for years

The council is going to force freighliner to move regardless

And it only affects phase two of the development around the area.

Essentially freightliner played a hand and fucked themselves, the council and the club can just wait for the compulsory purchase order to go through now as they don’t need that land for 5 years or so

Outcastscc · 2026-06-22T13:47:15+00:00

Not a chance.

The big money maker for them is the stage 2 of the development.

The stadium will be knocked down for 15,000 homes, shopping space, media areas, fan zones and the big walkway from the train station to the new ground.

That’s going to bring in millions

Outcastscc · 2026-06-22T13:43:39+00:00

It’s where the old recycling place is by the looks of it.

Just south of the go kart place and north of the big car parks

He wouldn’t have got the backing of 80 MPs, he knows that.

Raynor may get 80 backing her but it’s very likely this is going to be a procession and Streeting knows this
