I always suspected they might be cunts but was prepared to accept that I may have been pre-judging them based on not liking their music at all, not even one little bit.
(Darth Foxtrot A one-man army dedicated to making fetch happen, Fri 22 Oct 2010, 12:25, Reply)

It's 'too hot for /OT'
They are cunts. Ashcroft even more than he appears - convinced of his own genius, based on a fluke hit single and nothing more. Cunts.
( Monty Boyce, My cheese game is strong, Fri 22 Oct 2010, 12:31, Reply)

Bollocks is anything "Too hot for OT"
We're not liable to press charges based on scurrilous slander, are we. I also doubt you can lower my opinion of Ashcroft, he falls into that 90's Britpop frontman demographic of which the only membership criteria seemed to be fronting a godawful band and being a cunt. Think about it - Albarn, Gallagher, Anderson, Power, Cocker - was any one of those men not a massively irritating bastard? There must be others I've forgotten.

Ooh, it seems I still have some reserves of bitterness yet to exhaust with regards to the most musically barren period in modern British history
