R I P Paddy.

it's a Scottish tragedy

No, it's a Scottish farce.

 

[Jack Wills]

He's a biased irrelevant old twat.

 

[Prestwich_Blue]

He's as one-eyed about the Rags as Mike Summerbee is about City. Obviously Buzzer's a far nicer bloke.

The words '...far nicer...' implies there is an element of niceness about Crerand, however small.

I'm going to email Five Live in the morning to ask them to get Uncle Paddy back on. I'd be really interested to hear his views on tonight's game!

Can't wait for the next installment.

Carefull, kids.
That's what drinking Brasso, Nitromors, Absynth, Kestrel Super Strength, Night Nurse, Jeyes Fluid, Caustic Soda and Jif Micro Liquid has done to Paddy.

Just Say No

And that's the crucial bit – let's be honest, are any of their so called 'legends' that they parade about on match days 'nice' or 'decent' people?
Crerand is just the worst of the worst - a biased, beligerent old twat of the highest order. Di Maria could have gunned down the ref tonight and he would have excused it away... "in my day... you've never played the game..." etc.

Crerand is something of an expert on the subject of spitting.

I've posted this before after the Bogbrush/Zab episode but time to dust it off again-


From a Referee's Forum.

The laws of football didn't bother with spitting until the nation was shocked in 1968, when on Match of the Day, Pat Crerand of Manchester United spat into the face of an opponent. At the end of that season, the International Football Association Board, who compile the laws of the game, hastily added an International Board Decision. This was not part of the law but an interpretation
which referees had to follow. It said 'The offence of spitting at opponents, officials or other persons shall be considered violent conduct'. 

This meant that the player committing the offence would be sent off.

Crerands gobbogate took place at the end of the last match of the season, United had already won the div 1 title but their opponents did not lie down for them, the score was 0-0 v Sunderland and Crerand gobbed in a players face as they left the field. You cannot buy class.

They had..?!
