:-s Yeah, this long ball bobbins isn’t going to work. We’ve got to establish a pattern that’ll serve us as well when we’re playing in the Champions League in a few years time as it will now. As the saintly Mr Clough said, if football was supposed to be played in the air, God wouldn’t have put grass on the ground.

Pimms for me, chapster. And if you’re going to be stewarding, get yourself a decent suit and silver platter, will you? Also, remember plenty of fruit.
