Plymouth? Luxury (said in a northern accent as per Monty Python). Midweek in January 2008 my parents forced me to go to the JPT match at Swansea wearing just flip flops and shorts.
As of a couple of hours ago the petition stood at > 900k signatures. Apparently Alan Bates has declined an OBE until Vennels is stripped of her CBE, so keep piling in.
Whenever I go to Selhurst I feel compelled to burst into song - Oliver’s Army. I really would “rather be anywhere else than here today”. I don’t know why I keep going back: crap journey to a crap ground and a crap journey home.
