Restrained, respectful bosh (early morning) yet also with an aggressive undertone that says "I do really mean this bosh but I will not wake my neighbours". Generational.
I don’t think there’s any football club that’s had as many ups and downs and swings as we have.
From League 1 on a -10, 4 years in the top eight of the Premier League and a top 6 finish, 8-0 wins and 0-9 defeats, losing to Rochdale and winning against Inter Milan, beating all the Big 6 in one season to nearly having the worst team in Premier League history. Fastest hatricks, fastest goals, horrible statues and hiring rugby coaches, being a laughing stock at one point and being one of the most envied clubs in English football at others.
Even at my age I was calming down about football just simply because at this club we really have seen it all… then along came Spygate and the show goes on. Madness.
Everyone knew this was the risk of playing chappie. You knew some mad cunt would dish out a slap like this if they caught you. It’s why you play the game.
If you can't enjoy a duck walking back from the match in a Mexico top, what can you enjoy?
(Apparently he thought the second red card for South Africa was harsh too 🫠)
not the point really but the creeping use of "could of" instead of "could have" in quasi-official social media statements is a shocking decline in popular literacy
