@izzyslovenian Merson, probably. Loads of players have got themselves sold for (supposedly) better things, but he had to badmouth the club on his way out despite getting what he wanted.

@quantick It's really hard to create an echo chamber on here.

@Tosh_Warwick @boro_mag @boroshirtmuseum @GazetteBoro Always wondered why the goalie looked so delighted at letting a goal in.

@jslovechild Some sort of religious cult that ends with some bloke having seventeen wives then mass suicide because a flying saucer is on the way?

[Garry Brogden @atomicloonybin]

@Bob_Fischer Oh yes, thank you @rob_fmttm for once putting Notts Forest on the front of a Fly Me. I had to endure a five minute lecture from a Forest fan when I was selling. Ten minutes later, another Forest fan gave me the lecture as well. It was a long stint.

[Garry Brogden @atomicloonybin]

@Bob_Fischer (seriously) I once got told off by someone (on here I think) because I erroneously thought it was Boston Spa, which is near Wetherby. Proving once again that there's always someone, somewhere, with a big nose, who knows.

@dylanhzm @TheKnowledge_GU This is the only example I can find of a player transferring between two teams following an abandonment and playing for both. The issue of course is that the original abandoned game doesn't count, unlike the Red Sox game which restarted where the game had been ended.

@xNearDark @MichaelRosenYes @mrmarksteel Chuck was also in the habit of looking at his watch, "is that 30 minutes?", if so, walks off.

[Garry Brogden @atomicloonybin]

@boro_memories A week later he gave a "can't be arsed" performance in a defeat to Stoke, and that was that. Weirdly we started with two Saturday home games in a row that season.

@izzyslovenian @gary_hammy Grrrrrrrrrrrrr

[Garry Brogden @atomicloonybin]

@MaySting1 @rocking_bob Me too. Born 1960, Private Eye starts 1961 :(

@MichaelCGlasper In the recent excellent Daley Thompson documentary, he and his son Elliott were shown going through London train station and on various trains carrying the latters poles - he's a decathlete as well.

@StanCollymore I was at both that Summer. I know I am naive but I genuinely thought we'd dealt with the NF and all that pathetic detritus back then. And forty odd years on, I'm an old man, and things are worse than ever.

[Garry Brogden @atomicloonybin]

@JonSavage1966 I never really understood why he loved The Supermen so much; he kept having a go at it for a few years, and for me it's a complete dud.

Which is why I'm not David Bowie, I guess(!).

@alistaircoleman Boy, I bet someone got fired* for that!

@MemorabiliaMal I think Billy has just found out that someone has nicked his bicycle.

@MikeyCCFC1969 @stusfootyflash Similarly, supposedly, in the utterly pointless 3rd/4th playoff at Italia 90. Bobby Robson was going to give a half each to Chris Woods and Dave Beasant, but Shilton insisted on being picked for his 125th cap.
