Bi-Tunes: Canvey Island

United fan, and good friend of Bifurcated, Birchy (@xbirchy) was busy mining for golden GIFs for the brilliant Beautifully Red, when his attention was grabbed by someting out the corner of his eye … it was only the Bifurcated Train Conductor cooking up his lunch in his kitchen – we’ve had words about his behaviour, […]

United fan, and good friend of Bifurcated, Liz Worsley (@LizWorsley) was sketching out some drawings for her brilliant blog My Sports Toons, when she was disturbed by the  sound of a flushing toilet?! It was only the Bifurcated  Train Conductor using her bathroom – we promise we’ll have words (I hope he washed his hands). […]

To mark the US Presidential Election we’re inviting Barack Obama (in the interest of impartiality we won’t say ‘Yay!’) and Mitt Romney (in the interest of impartiality we won’t say ‘Boo!’) aboard The Bifurcated Train, as members of our Canvey Island Family share some of the political songs that mean the most to them. The […]

United fan and friend of Bifurcated, Tom Pattison (@TomPattison) was busy putting his fingers in his many social media pies – including the super United site Can They Score  he co-runs, and the weekly Can They Score Podcast – when his laptop shut down automatically, displaying nothing but the ‘blue screen of death’. In the […]

United fan Surge Biscuits (@NoHeroesHere) – blogger on various sites including his own Blatant Red – was uploading a few photos to Instagram when the glass of water on the table beside him began to tremble (like in dinosaur films and that). This was no dinosaur, no, this was the arrival of the Bifurcated Train! (Although having said that, the […]

United fan and Bifurcated friend Tricia (@Tr16ia) was scouring YouTube for old clips of Roy, when she was suddenly disturbed by a screeching of steam engine wheels. The Bifurcated Train doesn’t run on steam – it was just a cheap sound effect – nonetheless it had arrived! The conductor tossed Tricia a £1 coin and beckoned […]

United fan Melissa Hollis (@mel1046) was off out into town, but as she was getting ready she spotted a strange train- station-shaped train station had appeared outside her window (I think we can guess what’s coming by now!). The conductor handed Melissa a £1 coin and wagged his finger in the direction of the platform. There, of course, was only […]

Friend of Bifurcated and United fan Iwan Lehnert (@IwanLehnert) who writes his own footy blog Lines and Lines of Whatever alongside sister blog for music reviews Small World Reviews was deciding whether to settle down with a book or flick on the PS3, when he was  disturbed by a menacing tap at the window. It was […]

Friend of Bifurcated and United fan Paul Ansorge (@UtdRantcast) – of website United Rant, and the superb United Rant Cast podcast fame – had taken a break from recording to contemplate his connection with the Universe and that. He’d only just stepped outside when his momentary peace was shattered by the incessant hum of impending doom. Woah! Steady on … It’s just the Bifurcated Train! The […]

United fan and friend of Bifurcated Pauline was (@juliefa2) outside watching Harvey, her cat, stalking a cheeky little sparrow, when what felt like the rumbling of thunder startled them both. There was no storm heading her way though, no … That noise was the Bifurcated Train! The conductor jumped form the carriage and crawled on his hands […]

As part of our Euro 2012 special stuff we’ve invited the three lions to board the Bifurcated Train. With the help of our previous guests we’ve picked them out some of our favourite England related songs to inspire them in Poland and Ukraine. Yes, this kind of blog fodder has been done on numerous occasions before, […]
