DRIVING US WILD



TSLR was 'watching' Top Gear. That Clarkson really is a prick, Kevin McLoud made him look like a fucking mug. Anyway, we noticed - through shouting swear words at the pube headed twat - that the new VW Scirocco was voted 'Very Cool' on the 'Cool Wall' and we wondered if this had anything to do with it being asscoiated with the mag.

Maybe not, but we're very proud of the beast and we're saving up to buy one of the new ones. We hope that Clarkson fans don't buy TSLR.

JAMMY


Because I am a doughnut (see above) I got some TSLR003's mixed with TSLR004's at Stocky. If I sold you the wrong one, please get in touch and we'll send the correct one out to you.

Sorry for the inconvenience and all that.

STAND UP AND BE COUNTY-ED


I'm lucky in that the journey home for me was very short last night. For the 300+ who travelled from elsewhere to see that shite then my thoughts are with you. Albion, although controlling possesion in parts, did very little to convince that we wanted to win the match.

Sitting, roofless and exposed, in the freezing Cheshire air was not nice. The songs were drowned out, our chants floating upwards into the sky causing a beautiful turbulence to the constant holiday makers flying into Manchester Airport.

In times of deep depression, it is common for us english to make each other laugh. This we did with constant screams and hollers of SHOOOOOOT! SHOOOOOOT! whenever the Albion had the ball. This reposte to our woeful attacking prowess must've been like a wall of sound to the lads on the pitch - the eventual shot from Thornton spooned high and wide onto the railway amongst delirium from the travelling fans - it's not often you do the arms spread wahey! at one of your own badly skewed shots, but the warming self deprication was ultimately melancholy as the final whistle blew - the refreee slamming the axe onto our necks for the last time.

County 2 - 0 Albion

WE'RE DIGGING IT

The TSLR boys are getting their helmets out following the official announcement of the start of construction work on Falmer on 17th December. In typical Albion fashion, there's going to be a ballot to attend the 'Kick-off' ceremony; the uproar from which will probably lead to a public inquiry. Those who actually have jobs or are unable to go (like us) will no doubt be kept well in the loop during the entire construction process. The club are planning a webcam...everyone loves going online and watching things becoming erect.

Exciting times!

TSLR004 OUT NOW


Apologies for the blogging slackness but we've been busy putting together the new issue. Those 25 or 30 of you that did make it to the Withers for the FA Cup on Saturday will be well aware that a new issue of TSLR arrived. If you're breaking out in a sweat like an eskimo at a central heating convention because of anxiety that your chance to purchase the fanzine has passed then rest assured you can buy it before the game on Wednesday. At this point I feel it is my duty to draw your attention to the outrageous Hawkins howler of an own goal we were forced to witness on Saturday afternoon. Quality finish though. We don’t like him much right now, and it’s only his outstanding contribution to modern science that means we’re prepared to give him time to put his theories into practice. Back to the self-promotion - this month’s issue is as packed as George Bush's bags. It’s loosely themed on the FA Cup & highlights include exclusive pictures of Falmer & the US election, Geoff Hurst, cup ramblings, Midfield Diamond, Glory Boy, Colin Hawkins, Northern-ness, Dizzy, Jimmy Case, Carter & even a cartoonist.
