Well there’s a reason they’re legendary loafers.

Let Me Go Girl
[youtube=http://youtu.be/qPIExEVYkAY]
This tune is just as good as you might expect from a group that consisted of the likes of Slim Smith, Ken Boothe, Derrick Morgan, BB Seaton, Roy Shirley and Lloyd Charmers alternately throughout it's existence. Doesn't really matter what the line up consisted of at the time this was recorded, it was going to be good. Being produced by Bunny Lee sure doesn't hurt either.

Continuing on with the theme of things we;re into. Bunny Lee and Glen Adams are definitely two of them. Adams is more well known for his organ grinding sessions that get skinheads around the world moving, but he also put out some quality rocksteady sides. This tune in particular was produced by the incredibly talented Bunny Lee. The man could seemingly do no wrong during the rocksteady era and produced a lot of top notch skinhead reggae on the Unity label. If you don't have the cash to track down some of the singles I would highly recommend picking up the 2LP "Bunny Lee Rocksteady Years" album put out by Moss Selekta. Crucial cuts throughout.

Greatest of All Time
You often times hear the Greatest of All Time argument thrown around in relation to boxers. At For The Suits we think there is no doubt. It's "Sugar" Ray Robinson. Watch this and figure out why.

Comings and Goings
Ambition has been in no short supply since “Big” Sam Allardyce came into the picture at West Ham. There is never a shortage of complaints regarding the system he plays with many feeling that his focus on the long ball and set pieces is blasphemous, a traitorous style not respecting the traditional “West Ham Way.” Fair play on that, his style certainly wouldn’t be described as attractive football.

Big Andy
Andy Carroll made a good first impression now didn’t he? By all accounts Andy’s first outing for the Irons was an industrious one in which he wreaked havoc for Fulham’s defenders before going off in the 75th minute for a full hearted challenge that upset his hamstring. He knocked down the ball which Ricardo Vaz Te laid on for Kevin Nolan to bury before Winston Reid headed home on the half hour mark. To finish off a dream first half Matty Taylor took a gift from Fulham’s Brede Hangeland and knocked it in. Guy Demel was another player who went off injured in the latter stages, replaced by young Rob Hall with Taylor taking over the full back position. It was a far better effort then last weeks calamitous match with Swansea. West Ham played the ball on the ground a lot more and Carroll made a massive impact in his first match for us. Perhaps now with the price tag pressure off his back Big Andy can now gain back some of the form he showed at Newcastle.
