They'll have loads of security around them. Probably wouldn't get a chance at a decent shot! Ah, it's just really annoying but the world still turns and there's the tour to look forward to so onwards and upwards!

They will now!

Hey ho, at least they got to number three, imagine how fans of weird indie bands or heavy metal feel every week.

Slightly gutted, would've personally liked to have seen the boys hit #1 on my 30th - never mind! Long as Newcastle win all won't be lost today...

Aye, the Manics can be pleased that they still consistently sell well where alot of bands can quickly disappear off the radar. You've still got staying power lads!

I have my own chart in my own parallel universe. The Manics have been Number 1 for 12 years now. Give it a rest lads!

The next album is going to be described as 'Iron Maiden and Metallica doing 70 Motown covers'.

Number 3 is good. I think it's a grower, which isn't necessarily going to lead to large instant commercial success, and they probably didn't have enough publicity with such a low placed single and little promotion. Plus it's the same as JFPL.

If The Script have any sence, they're already wearing vests.

I think most of us would have taken number 3 at the start of the week.

I don't feel too bad at the moment. It's just a momentary thing. A moment of jubilation. Just have to wait another year or so, tis all!
