HWT must have got postcards from Blackpool stamped 'Fylde Coast'. It's just the coastline of the Fylde Peninsula, which extends nearly to Preston.

Not fixed enough - I opened the thread thinking WTF is Radio Never??
Was anyone listening to the John Peel show the night they won the European Cup ( probably the 1977 one)? He was unable to attend the match but the producer let him play the Kop singing 'You'll Never Walk Alone' at the...
Here is that notorious headline. The Sun played on that in this morning's issue, with this as the main headline: FREDDIE STARR JOINS HIS HAMSTER
