    Saw that picture and thought, he looks unwell.

    I was thinking of Paul Parker.

    Although this has made me reflect on the difference in how time works now vs then.

    I knew of Paul McGrath even though he retired the year after I was born, do you think a 10 year old non chelsea fan born in 2016 will be hearing about Branislav Ivanovic?

    McGrath retired in 1998. Sorry mate, you're not 21 years old, I don't care what you tell yourself to feel better.

    Ah, he left United in 1989. That makes more sense.

    He put Roberto Baggio in his pocket 5 years after that.

    To give this context, 61% of his professional club appearences came after 1989.

    I’d always remember him far more as a Villa player than a Utd one anyway.

    I remember 94 in a greatest hits kind of way. Namely Houghton against Italy, Diana Ross, Hagi's goal and those really, really deep nets.

    This villa fan I work with is always talking about how great Paul McGrath was. He was before my time but he claimed, McGrath used to turn up on match days drunk out his face, high on something

    PFA Player of the Year in 92/93. An Aston Villa centre half who spent half of it smashed and not training due to chronic knee injuries. The man's a beast.

    Past experience in regard to him has taught me to just say nothing.

    NOTHING!

    Apparently that “what colour is the dress” thing was 5 years ago.

    I was told it earlier, though I was then told it was on ladbible so it may be a false alarm. I doubt the writers could count to five.

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_dress

    The dress is a photograph that became a viral internet sensation on 26 February 2015, when viewers disagreed over whether the dress pictured was coloured black and royal blue, or white and gold.
