Not sure if anyone else heard this but travelling to our game today I was listening to the commentary of the Man Utd/Liverpool game on Radio Merseyside and during the second half the commentator said Scott McTominay had gone down with a knock to the head, and then the summarizer, David 'tommo' Thompson, suddenly piped up and chirped that he 'wouldn't mind giving McTominay a punches to the head myself'.
How very classy. The kingsized beaut.
Careful what you say or "The Godfather" himself will be on your case, lest we forget.........
LIVERPOOL defender Jamie Carragher was involved in an amazing payback plot to attack Lucas Neill after the Aussie broke Carragher's leg.
Furious Carragher was left in agony after the crunching tackle snapped the former England player's leg during a match in September 2003 while Neill was still at Blackburn Rovers.
But in his autobiography - now being serialised in the British press - he admitted he almost got his pals to mete out his revenge.
The Daily Mirror revealed this astonishing extract from the autobiography: "My mates were ready to hunt him down if I gave the go-ahead.
"A few weeks later I received a phone call. 'You won't believe this, Jay. We're in [Manchester shopping mall] the Trafford Centre and Lucas Neill is walking straight towards us. What do you reckon?'
"Did I really want Neill to take a crack? 'There's only one problem,' added the voice. 'Little Davey Thommo is with him.'
"That was that. I could hardly let one of my best mates, David Thompson, now a Blackburn player, become a witness to an assault.
"Besides, he'd have recognised the attackers. The impromptu mission was aborted and I sent a text to Thommo telling him Neill should give him a hug of thanks."
Carragher added: "As word got back to Blackburn about the near miss, or should that be hit, their coach Terry Darracott, a Scouser, appealed to one of my friends to call the boys off. I agreed."
Classy FC as ever.....
