one of his best album covers. thanks skinny, it was a nice read and i havent read much about that album
I always thought that was Cornelius carr on the cover of southpaw- well you learn something everyday- Kenny lane
Nice post Uncleskinny, would have missed it otherwise . I never knew the history of 'Southpaw Grammer' let alone the "fan boy" behavior Moz had for Eric Cantona . Love the photo of the kick and used CharlieFairheads link to read more on Eric. Being the typical American, the football part of the article was a bit tuff to understand but Cantona does have a passion for the game . Wonder if he ever got wooed to come to the United States to play ? He has the looks but may-be the USA market was to small at this time.
Cornelius was the cover star of World of Morrissey.
Celebrating / glorifying an act of violence...... whatever next?
30 years of Roy Keane's assault on Alfie Haaland?
Suarez's bite on an opponent?
Ched Evans' night in a Rhyl hotel?
Cantona was sent down for this attack - regardless of the provocation. He's a thug. No hero worship please.
He was given Community Service. The other fella was a complete dick who had it coming. My favourite bit was where he was giving Cantona a load and then as soon as Cantona came at him he was on the run. A complete coward, one of those all mouth from behind their keyboard types that wouldn't have the bollocks to say anything to a person's face.
He was given a 2 week prison sentence, which was overturned on an appeal. He did porridge for a few days and then given 120 hours community service.

As for the knob who said ''Haaland got what he deserved'' - you think passing a comment over Keane when down on the deck deserved his career ending and his livelihood taken away from him? Wow, you really need to take a hard look at yourself.
And here we go again.... Chelsea and City and their ''dirty'' money and wonderful Manchester United and their ''clean money''.
Let's look at how clean it is.....
United one of a few teams to demand home gate receipts be kept to home clubs making the rich richer, the poor poorer.
United one of the teams to demand the formation of the Premier League and a bigger slice of the cake for the bigger teams. The rich get richer, the poor poorer.
United one of the teams demanding the introduction of the Champions League, guaranteeing more games and more TV revenue. The rich get richer, the poor poorer.
United one of the first teams (after Spurs) to float on the stock exchange, making themselves richer and the poor poorer.
And Chelsea and City (and PSG) come along with a sugar daddy and United are one of the clubs demanding UEFA bring in Financial Fair Play - with the sole purpose of stopping clubs gatecrashing the party and feasting at the trough. Self preservation society. Huge debts (United, R Madrid, Barca) are acceptable, fresh money with no debts frowned upon.
You see, United (and Liverpool to an extent) engineered the situation to be able to obtain the money - yes legally, but ethically and morally at the expense of every other club. No other club outside United, Liverpool and maybe Arsenal were able to compete with them due to the engineering of taking the bigger slice of the cake leaving the rest fighting for the scraps. And when Chelsea and City came along, was it West Ham crying out, or Villa, or Stoke? No, it was United, Liverpool and Arsene Wenger screaming ''where's the level playing field? It's not fair''. You couldn't make it up!
Look at how many times United have broken the British transfer fee record. Yet ''Chelsea and City bought their titles'' that ''mean nothing'' to fans from outside those two clubs.
Your arrogance smacks of the very reason United fans are despised the world over. I know fans from lots of Premier League clubs and to a man they would love what happened at Chelsea and City to happen at their club. Ask a Coventry City fan, or a Portsmouth, Leeds and Forest fan right now who he (or she) would prefer to own their club right now! It wouldn't be the Glaser's, that's for sure!
You mentioned United and ''their history''....... the exact thing you spent years laughing at Liverpool fans for saying the same thing.... enjoy your history, as that is all you have at the moment and immediate future.
A great, iconic moment.

They're my team. I know they're in the shit a bit at the minute but I quite like our owner. He's naive but passionate and everyone loves a tryer. English football is a farce these days though, I do like Mourinho, he's got a touch of the Clough about him but the rest of the top division bores me to tears - as like you said, the top teams just manipulated the system in their favour taking all of the sport out of it. Compare that to the second division where you've got teams like Bournemouth tearing it up while teams like mine who've spent a bomb and can't win a game. I love the unpredictability of it and give me that any day to a bunch of teams battling to finish fourth or avoid relegation.
Anyway, back to Cantona...
A great, iconic moment.

The Youtube clip does not work and nor does your reasoning which is very muddy from your obvious bias. Maybe you are the guy that Cantona kicked cause it would make sense. Hold on to those crutches mate!
