Silly cow, she should've thought about the property prices, in 20 years time she'd be sitting on a gold mine!

oh fuck i'm starting to sound like the daily mail, thought all that rubbed off on me over the years of recce missions against that gutter rag was a mild form of brain tumor.

if i had the chance to live that close to my favourite clubs ground and my future wife said no. she'd be out of my life quicker than wayne rooney was when sir ferguscum offered him more money than everton were giving him.

its football, its more than just a game, its more than life and death, its way more serious than that.
