Owner talks about going on a bender and buying the club; then promises an Ibiza trip.
Russ: “I love him. Why can’t our owners be like that? I’m getting his face tattooed onto my scrotum”
Any mention of Macclesfield takes me back 35 years to the drama school house mate (and son of a former Man U player) who constantly played his Macc Lads tape.
Beer and sex and chips and gravy. Sweaty Betty. Going down Blackpool for a fight. Heard them all far too many times. I declined the opportunity to accompany him to see them live (supported by Eddie Shit). He came home euphoric and soaking wet. Apparently the standard order at the bar that night was 4 pints of Boddies - and a pint of lager 'fer throwing'.
We are playing the FA Cup game, where you choose a tiny club in the early rounds, then follow until beaten, then switch to the winning club. I'm currently on Macc. Watched the game in Cat Asylum territory, stealing myself to have to switch my allegiance to Crystal Pale Arse.
Ashleigh Neville left Spurs for Fester ladies on Thursday.
She’s making her Fester debut today - away at Spurs.
And has scored an own goal to put Spurs ahead.
I'm pretty worried (aren't I always) about West Ham's next few fixtures. Their new striker scored today and looked decent. Spurs are a mess and Frank is under big pressure. Then they've got Sunderland at home. It's not impossible to see 4-6 points for them.
