Jim Banbridge. My point about Patsy McCann was first of all that Davenport used it as an excuse to defame MacColl, yet again. For crying out loud! The man's been dead 25 years. Do I seriously have to listen to yet another diatribe, every time Bob Davenport opens his mouth?

Secondly, I was offended at the aggressive way in which he turned on me when I pointed out a simple fact of history. If Bob Davenport cannot rationally discuss something as incontrovertible as that, without behaving as though he's about to start a fight, then I really have no time for him.

GSS. "can you do this Jim? Fred? lets hear you". What the fuck has that got to do with it? Tell you what Dick. I am not very well known as a singer, and I haven't had your illustrious career, but I suggest you wait until you've listened to me singing before you start casting remarks like that around!!!
