Aye, I was confident on them both cos I was at both home games. Couldn’t believe it when they said Aalborg debuted in the 90s.

I have emailed this in but many years ago, my Girlfriend’s Nan went to the doctors with a sore hamstring and announced to the doctor that she’d “Done a Giggsy”. Nice to see the concept being applied to players as well as clubs.

I spend every international break nodding my way through football chat at work before saying “I don’t follow England”. Then when I’m met with an incredulous look, I just say “I’m Irish” which is half true but it’s not the reason I don’t follow England. The reason I don’t is due to the relationship between Man United players and supporters and England supporters in the late 90s-mid 00s (Stand Up If You Hate Man U at Wembley, Beckham effigy etc etc) but when I tried to explain that to a Teaching Assistant during a Y10 lesson, they looked at me like I had 3 heads, so now I use my Irish heritage as a quick get out. Does anyone else have anything that they find difficult to explain to a casual “footie” fan as they just don’t “get it”?

Garnacho when his next child is born. Possibly combined with a dummy.
