Happy sick swan day

[RodneyRodney]

I was in NZ. No TV match coverage , but I managed find an internet stream and hook it up to my phone/desktop. Very flaky , sound/picture out of sync, dropping out numerous times.
With each goal we scored , I became more & more incredulous . . . by the end I was thoroughly convinced it was some very very clever internet hoax.

I checked multiple news sites , which all confirmed the score. . . but I still didn't believe it. Just sat there in the dark with a glass of red , repeating "I don't beleive it" over and over , for about an hour.

Eventually crashed , must have been after 0600 NZ time, after several beers and a bottle of red. Phone rang a couple of hours later , for a job interview, which I'd totally forgotten about. Hungover to buggery & back, 2 hrs sleep . . .but I passed the interview.

Ratboy dressed for the funeral and his tone very sombre. Love to see it.

"Fergie Time" left a deep wound in our gut back then.

Fergie time killed for ever on 13th May 2012, he then hated injury time

Hopefully he'll be doing the same tonight.

I don't recall the White Hart from my nights in Wan Chai . . . but then, there's not much I do remember from any of those nights . . .
There were a couple of decent pubs on Lamma Is. (Pom heaven) where I watched a fair bit of football, one of them had Boddies on tap

Haha, just remembered it was called the white Stag, not the White Hart. The White Stag is opposite Carnegies. Just round the corner from the famous Joe Banana’s. You must have been there! I was a frequent visitor to HK/China for over 30 yrs, but probably only went to Lamma 2 or 3 times. Spent most of my R&R in Lan Kwai Fong or Wanchai.

Paid equivalent of 8 quid for a pint of cold and gassy Boddies 23 years ago in that place.
Luckily was on exes at the time.
