Happy sick swan day

The Rag is a Cockney or from down South.

The women United fan in the stand shown after the 6th goal goes in looks very similar to the women United fan shown at Sunderland after Sergio scored the title winning goal.

That’s Wembley surely?

Dam it came up on my twAtter feed.

I started to panic when they pulled one back to make it 3-1, simply because they had a habit of scoring very late goals.

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

I watched that game in ‘The White Hart’, Lockhart Rd, Wanchai, Hong Kong. I was in Beijing on business but flying down to HK in the afternoon, with plenty of time. However the plane had to make an emergency stop in Macau. I thought I was going to miss the game.
Eventually the issue was sorted and the plane took off again for the 10 min flight to HK. By the time I got to the pub I couldn’t get in, so watched from the street. Loads of blues there. What a night that was.

It is. Different kit to the sick swan.

Fucking great memories. Oh, and as if to pair this with another great memory the Palace 3 v 3 Liverpool game just came up on my YouTube.

Hadn't noticed before but some of the commentary was shocking at 0-3.

I did have a Kebab actually.

I was in Australia. Woke up to the result and the headlines said it was a seismic day in English football. Probably was….

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
