Old blowk int shop this morning

He knows I go to the matches

Old Blowk 'are Reds gonna stop up then young Un?'

Me 'it's gonna take a miracle!'

Old Blowk 'they could do wi laikin that lad who (allegedly) fixes matches'

Me 'he's been playing in every match'

Old Blowk 'well he must be effin ***** at that arnorl then!'

Punditry at its best. But on a far more serious point once the conversation continued. He told me he'd not missed a home game from late 50s to early Millenium. He doesn't go anymore even if we have a big game. His grand kids keep asking him to take them but he can't/won't (he's only got a daughter, kids no dad around). I wonder how many similar of the next generation we'll lose in a similar veign?!?
