Wembley Build Up

[Reece]

I guess I'm just a capitalist whore as I never really think of it as the "League Cup", rather it's current sponsored name.

I don't even know who it is anymore. I can't keep up, nor do I really take any notice. It's not still Coca Cola is it?

[Reece]

No it's Rumbelows at the moment.

[dom9]

That was the worst one. Who were Rumbelows even? Was it a catalogue shop or something?

The Milk Cup was my favourite.

Rumbelows were a retail chain, a **** one. There's no modern comparison

[Rich]

In the rentals game weren't they?

Sure I used to rent a **** television from them in my student days in Hull.

Happy times.

[dom9]

We had Radio Rentals and Granada.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rumbelows

Rumbelows was an electrical and electronics retailer in the United Kingdom which once rivalled Currys, Dixons and Comet.

Fred Dawes established the company as a chain of television and radio rental shops in the 1950s, naming it Fred Dawes. In 1969, the business was sold to Radio Rentals (which had merged with Thorn Electrical Industries in 1968), and all the rental accounts were transferred to Radio Rentals. All 90 of the Fred Dawes high street stores became electrical retailers instead, and were renamed Rumbelows.

Bellamy's views on playing Cardiff City

[yamiedo]

Bellamy's a class act, just seems like a genuinely nice guy and I think people get the wrong impression of him from his passion that spills over into aggression on the pitch. Wish we had him for his whole career because he puts his heart and soul into this club.
