    Apparently, however, its been a huge misunderstanding. It's a little known fact that David Bowie is a supporter of Scottish Championship football team Hamilton Academical Football Club. One of their strikers, Jason Scotland, is looking for a transfer away from the club and all Bowie did was to ask him to stay.


    I hope Dave gets the apology he deserves.

    He of all people should realise that football is full of 'Changes'.

    In sure he'll survive.......

    He probably feels under pressure now.

    The Scots will be dancing in the street calling for his head.


    Something something China girl.

    The only thing this whole episode will bring him is sorrow.

    They were going to name a street in Edinburgh after him.


    Then they realised it only went one way.

    It's a godawful small affair.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,016 ✭✭✭✭Rothko


    Bowie was branded "arrogant" and a "two faced old *******" in messages on his official Facebook page, with one reading: "**** off back to Mars".

    Lol

    David Bowie is a legend and he can say what the fúck he wants.
    That is all

    I thought it would be for having sex with a 14 year old girl back in the day which is a really well known secret. A year later Jimmy Page "abducted" the same girl

    I heard he only has 5 years.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,599 ✭✭✭DublinWriter


    blah blah blah loving the abroathian


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,688 ✭✭✭dirkmeister


    I love the bit which says that one person will be deleting their collection of Bowie music from their laptop.


    HOLY MOLY! That's really telling him!!!!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,829 ✭✭✭Nemeses

    Whats the dillio?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,593 ✭✭✭Elmer Blooker


    he seems like a lad insane to me.
    one way or another the Scots will be going from polling station to station on referendum day.

    i dreaded opening this thread thinking it could be another Saville situation


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,433 ✭✭✭wandatowell


    is the story about him and Jagger true?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,351 ✭✭✭Ray Palmer


    is the story about him and Jagger true?
    According to Angie Bowie yes.

    They were both doing a lot of cocaine at the time so believable too

    I doubt if Bowie will ever get to read this story in the Irish Independent.
    He's more of a Star man.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,230 ✭✭✭Merkin


    He's a bit of a Rebel Rebel in fairness. I bet he's feeling under pressure.

    The Musician who must give his opinion on something that won't affect him

    or the overreaction to it.

    Saville always seemed creepy to me as a child (not just saying that now he's disgraced - his eyes never smiled along with his mouth) but Bowie made me feel all sorts of curious and delicious- like my legs were made of stretched out bubble gum.

    He should probably leave Scotland alone though, especially since he couldn't even be arsed to go to England to pick up his award.
