Have you noticed that Joey Barton is expressing his musical preferences through head and facial
furniture lately ? The Morrissey fetish (and illustrative quiff) has been crushed beneath the
weight of his Beatles back catalogue, judging by this photo of him at the QPR FA Cup game this
week.
The new timebomb Stoke City are aiming to make amends for their 'turning down The Beatles' moment
with their latest transfer target. Tony Pulis and co. infamously rejected the Premier League's
current in-form striker, Demba Ba, this time last year. Ba failed a medical at the Britannia
Stadium, with Pulis subsequently describing the Senegal international's [.
First off, I accept that this is a pretty unfair comparison.
To rank any Arsenal team from any era against the most feted group of Gunners ever to have worn
the sacred cannon is clearly destined to be a mismatch.
It's a bit like comparing Dan Brown with Charles Dickens, or Boyzone with the Beatles.

Brigitte Bardot.
The Kop embracing The Beatles in 1964.
There's nothing quite like a trip to Wembley, and today's a very big day for Liverpool fans.
While Liverpool has adopted "You'll never walk alone", back in 1964 the crowd sang "She Loves You"
and channeled their inner Lennon and McCartney.
Here's a fun fact about being 0-0-9 AND national champions at the same time : you start to expect
things.
The mighty Robins looked really good against Vancouver mid-week and their persistence / luck paid
off (finally). So as an opportunity to build momentum, the scheduling gods predicted both TFC's
pending mediocrity and corner-turning momentum to hand us a date with one of the second-worst teams
in the league in Philadelphia.
Home: A stylish older brother to England's away kit. Same colour scheme, but done much better, and
with a Nehru collar that would have done The Beatles nicely. Away: We loved the old Breton-style
stripy away kit, so we sort of resent this shirt from the outset. Overwhelmingly white with a hint
of darker colours [.
With disappointment piling up in MLS play like unnecessary similes in my PUT articles, the
Philadelphia Union's road to the playoffs grows longer and more winding by the matchday. Speaking
of the song that ended with the Beatles breaking up, what happened to the Union's Fab Four (Le
Toux, Mondragon, Califf, and Paul the Stray Ferret)?
