Another insightful piece, well argued and presented, as usual

Really good post this week, made me laugh a lot! As always, an inspired working in of the Elvis legend to (increasingly) distant figures. Harry Redknapp and Elvis was never a comparison I expected to see…

Thanks for the comments. Capello was handsome in his younger playing days? Maybe. We were all young once and you know what they say – the older we get the better we were.

Love it, the accompanying photos are inspired. It has put me off bangers and mash, though!

Great post again……
Everyone deserves a second chance, Capello actually coud have been described as handsome in his younger playing days, Milan Mandaric must have been through a lot of stress in his lifetime to look that way.
It’s quite normal for African public officials to stash their ill gotten weath in foreign banks so not even the the tax gets back.

That’s vintage Elvis I can’t wait as we say in Nigeria to “grab my copy”

The most heartfelt challenge to date, there are few individuals who divide people quite like Thatcher – and like the people who passionately dismiss Elvis, I will never understand the idiots who defend this monster. Thanks for such an interesting take on a slice of political history.

I’m beginning to get a better understanding of the North/South divide. Great work.

Yet another incisive piece, which rekindled the passionate objection I had to everything that this woman promulgated.

Keep up the good work, apologies for the cliche

The thesis sounds interesting. I presume you agree with what Greil Marcus said in his book ‘Mystery Train’.
