It's like everything I grew up on: a little bit of New Order, a little bit of Joy Division,Air Max 90 Men Nike Black, little bit of The Cure. It's just so forward-thinking."All the roots are everything I've ever loved from goth music. It's just really cool."It is not known if Rickly will be providing vocal duties on the new band, nor what it will be called. Rickly has been working with the other five members through his label, Collect records.Speaking of the effect Watkins' sentence had on the rest of the group,Nike Air Max 2014 Women Red Blue UK, Rickly added: "I want to be a part of their second chance, because people don't really think of what happens to the other members, but that, that took away their life."Rickly continued: "What happened is just devastating for them."Shortly after Watkins pleaded guilty to 13 sex offences, the band issued a statement saying how they were "heartbroken, angry and disgusted".The group added: "This is something that will haunt us for the rest of our lives. Being in a band has always been a labour of love and a platform to inspire people, not to take advantage of them. It's still hard to believe this is happening and that someone we were once so close to has destroyed so many lives, lying every step of the way."RelatedLost Prophets' Ian Watkins to Appeal 35 Year Prison Sentence for Baby SexLostprophets' Ian Watkins: From Rock Hero to Paedophile MonsterIan Watkins: Lostprophets Baby Rapist Gets 35 Years Prison SentenceIan Watkins was sentenced to 35 years in jailSouth wales Police  <div
Louis van Gaal Delays Netherlands Decision as Manchester United Rumors SwellBy Nick HowsonMay 1, 2014 11:36 BSTVan Gaal is close to securing a deal with United.Netherlands coach Louis van Gaal has delayed the announcement of his preliminary World Cup squad amid reports suggesting he is on the brink of being confirmed as Manchester United's new manager.Van Gaal was expected to confirm his 30-man squad on 2 May but will instead postpone the announcement until after the final Eredivisie weekend where several European places are yet to be filled.The alteration to the schedule comes amid reports suggesting the 62 year old will confirmed as David Moyes' replacement at Old Trafford within the next seven days.After announcing his squad which is set to be significantly made up of Dutch league players, Van Gaal begins an 11-day training camp with those players made available through their clubs on 7 May and hopes to have a deal announced before the start of his international commitments.The former Bayern Munich and Barcelona manager has been the bookmakers' favourite since the sacking of Moyes on 22 April after 10 months in charge. Interim boss Ryan won his first game in charge 4-0 against relegation-threatened Norwich City but his future is still to be decided.Giggs, United's most successful ever player, has made up part of a coaching quartet at Old Trafford including Phil Neville, Nicky Butt and Paul Scholes which has reunited many of the members of the much-famed Class of '92.While Giggs still holds a playing role at the Theatre of Dreams, Neville followed Moyes from Goodison Park at the end of last season following retirement while Butt and Scholes have been working with the United's Under-19 side in the Uefa Youth League.Guus Hiddink will replace Van Gaal at the end of Netherlands' World Cup campaign this summer with the latter intent on managing in the Premier LeagueVan Gaal has won domestic titles in three different countries and former Dutch international Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink says it is undeniable he has the capacity to succeed at United."If you look at [Jose] Mourinho he has learnt from Van Gaal," the current Royal Antwerp boss said."If you look at Frank de Boer he has learnt from him – a lot of trainers have taken a lot from him, even [Pep] Guardiola has taken a lot from him. So he must be good."  <div
