In all fairness DR what you said about Alonso and what the other fella said are a little bit different. And the thread count comment mugs you off a bit. I am aware that when we make what we think are inspiring comments or posts, it irks somewhat when other people dont get it. But none of the comments have been that disparaging, you chose to be all Churchillian. You must have known some people would think you a bit OTT. We are talking about a football manager, we are talking about a football team, however rooted in the fabric of a community they may be, its all just part of a game. A very beautiful, absorbing game, but a game none the less. When we get carried away by it, it stings to be brought back to reality, i know only too well.
The critisim is more for your thread title really. Its very annoying to start with. Very little wrong with the first quote, but the poem is going a bit far. Shant be going on my inspirational wall fella, but keep up the good work and try not to be quite so touchy about the unfavourable responses. Now off you sonny.
