was reading about him the other day in an NME from Spring 2004...

after Borrell made a series of predictions about Razorlight getting big that were likened to Cliff Jones from Gay Dad boasts.

Basically loads of letters like 'Borrell is an arrogant c**t, Razorlight won't be heard of in a year...' type thing...

Oh well 1 million albums sold and countless sold out tours and one of the biggest live audiences any band has ever played to countless times in one summer to critical acclaim...one might feel arrogance on this occasion was justified.

Up The Borrell.
