I sometimes think they are like Lola from Copacabana, still wearing faded red feathers in their hair. Thirty Years ago when they used to have a show. Lost their youth, lost their fergie now they’ve lost their mind !

Wonder how the PR spin on the sale will go in the closeseason?

Wonder how the PR spin on the sale will go in the days leading upto the new season?

Ha! I'd be howling with laughter before they even strode onto the pitch. The other players would be like the Roman guards from 'Life of Brian' (Biggus Dickus), trying their hardest not to laugh.
