    I love Nirvana and I appreciate the grunge movement. Cobain was easily above everyone else in terms of songwriting back then.
    Fitting we get onto Cobain under the topic title of "Blast from the Past".

    That's a mint post, Hughie.

    There's no-one who supports us and isn't from here who hasn't got a decent tale to tell about why they follow us, I reckon. It's easy to follow the successful clubs and be a true 'plastic', a glory hunter, but our on-field glory is well in the past so no-one who supports us can be called that.

    Thanks man. And you're right; where I'm from most people support Man Utd or Liverpool because of their succes I suppose. Hard to find a Newcastle supporter around here, though they do exist here as well.

    Loved American grunge...was an antidote to fecking dance music...which made-and makes-me want to gouge my own eyes out and play marbles with them.

    Obviously I'd play marbles pretty badly as i wouldn't be able to see....and I'm not sure how 'gouging' would affect their spherical nature as regards rolling...and i think i'd be in too much pain....but you get my point.
