Feargal Sharkey's hair still not allowed in Derry

Former Undertones front man and UK Music head Feargal Sharkey has been issued a reminder of a long standing threat that his feathered hair from 80's music video 'A Good Heart' is still not welcome within the City of Derry.

Glorious locks too much for Derry
The reminder was delivered to the University of Ulster Magee campus where it was mistakenly delivered to the College of Beauty and Hairdressers who have taken it along with a recently discovered Donna Summer EP as inspiration for a new style beyond flat-caps, Beatlemania haircuts, and Aran jumpers.

Bogside resident and spokesperson for the local resident's coalition Pol Coire gave the following statement to WNN, "It's nothing agin Feargal like, he's a daycent lad and his music wasn't complete keek. But the hair in that video was woeful like, I've seen better hanging off a Shipquay hoor's fanny. And we the residents of Free Derry don't want to see it about the place, it'll give us a bad image."

Mr Sharkey was unavailable for comment at the time of going to press but is said to be happy with the news that his 'Good Heart Hair' is making a resurgence around Magee as Derry finally enters the 80's.
