Sting

[Grammar Police]

How could he forget the amazing Intertoto plaque victory?

 

[bernardbresslaw]

Didn't he have extensive elocution lessons to lose his accent?

They all did in those days. I went to a few myself but lost interest and took up Judo.

 

[Wayne The Punk]

Didn't he have extensive elocution lessons to lose his accent?

Probably, him and Bryan Ferry, wankers

 

[AC Mack]

Thought this was going to be another BSA thread...

Thought it was going to be a new manager suggestion thread.

 

[Neil Martin]

In reality, the lass will be bored as.

Fuck me! As long as he doesn't try and sing to the poor lass as well. She'd be in a coma

 

[Stanley Mackem]

False cup, false wins, never happened

 

[The Great MES]

I love that John Lydon quote about him "Sting goes on about all this Buddhism and peace, but all that goes out the window when there's a DOLLAR involved"

 

[Pelanty]

can't imagine him lifting a crowd at a sporting event . strange booking

He's got some great uplifting songs Police were as great band.

 

[Manny F]

Did I not read somewhere he supported us when he was at school?

 

[Nil desperandum]

He won't have a clue what's happening with them. He'll still think they're in the prem and the only players he knows are Shearer and Ginola.

Bit like teaching. Doubt if he remembers who won the battle of Hastings.

You could say the same about Lydon and anarchy.

Yes but how do you know he was still a Sunderland fan in 1969.

 

[HebburnMackem]

He used to do loads of free Concerts in and around New York city.. Has he ever done Ben't Park or summit?

More American than British that lad.

[FIVE]

He's talking about the Fairs Cup in 1969

Do you think?

I only caught the last quarter as was at work. Didn't even know Sting was booked for the entertainment. I had a vague recollection of seeing someone on tv a few years ago say he was a Sunderland fan when he was younger though, despite being from Wallsend and all. Just did a google search and found this:
