The Romance Of The Cup?

[PaoloCee]

Bear with me, I know this will seem weird, especially as it's a first post. It does to me too.

Bought Ian’s (Virgs) ticket from him for last night’s sensational game.

I was sat in south stand, block D, row M, seat 93. In seat 92 (one from the aisle) was a female who was pretty, intelligent (as opposed to pretty intelligent), had just started a new job as a visual merchandiser (no, me neither) and knew her football onions. I was a little bit smitten and resolved to ask her for her phone number.

But, damn and blast, the Albion only made a bloody game of it and, by the time of the shoot-out, it was pandemonium and my chance was lost. If anyone knows her please direct her to this post (where she can at least have a good laugh at my pitiful plea).

 

[The Large One]

It was me. In disguise, of course.

Sorry about that.

All this post needs is the Simon Bates "Our Tune" song playing in the background!

 

[Trigger]

Did she have beautiful eyes?

 

[Knotty]

Reminds me of being in an hotel in Austria many years ago and whn I told the hotelier I was English, he said "Do you know what the definition of an Englishman is?" I said I didn't.

He said "Love is a wonderful thing but it will never take the place of football!"

if you don't find her here, write to the mag and i'll print the letter, i find this all quite intriguing. maybe a lonely hearts section in the back would prove popular.

how does she know you're not a ugly git though?

She's fully aware I'm an ugly git - she was sitting right next to me...

 

[Fred Oliver - Legend]

her names Yorkie

 

[Napper]

Nah, sorry, no offence but didn't I say she was intelligent?

 

[PaoloCee]

So far I've had (well, not had, but you know what I mean) Yorkie and Dougal's Bird. Oh and The Large One, in - presumably - drag.

None of these sound particularly plausible, although I won't deny that The Large One in drag doesn't appeal to my baser instincts.

Any advance?

 

[Juan Albion]

Does she like Pina Coladas
And getting caught in the rain?
Is she not into yoga?
Does she have half a brain?

If so, her name is Rupert.

 

[PaoloCee]

She didn't look like a Rupert....
