Happy Takeover Day!

[WestGorton]

My and my sons who were young slept the sleep of the saved after we trousered Robinho. Thank God we didn't get Berbatoss. No glamour.

Those of my generation will remember exactly where we were when the news came that JFK had been assassinated and also when Elvis died. The takeover was exactly the same.

I’d forgotten that A&E joined Everton on that day too.

I remember where I was when I heard Elvis had died and John Lennon too, though I’m too young to remember JFK's assassination.

Here's an interesting coincidence (or maybe not).

JFK was shot on my Mum's birthday, when she was expecting my first sister.
RFK was shot on Dad's birthday, when Mum was expecting my second sister.

And they both died the same number of days before my sisters were born.

Still might, mind.

'Twas ever thus.

Wouldn’t be City if it wasn’t a distinct possibility at all times.

Wow. Amazing coincidences.

Was fishing on the river Wye in Ross listening to my radio with two City mates gob smacked.

"Manchester City have been bought out by Abu Dhabi group ADUG, worth a reputed 555 billion!"

My other 3 mates fishing there were rags. They just sat sat sick as fuck with nothing to say.

Wow. Amazing coincidences.

If I didn’t know it was true, I’d have a job believing it.
