Raining goals in Boreham Wood too - a 4-0 win over an embarrassed Wolves side in the National League Cup
I've just watched Atletico Baleares, of the fourth tier, beat La Liga side, Espanyol, in the Spanish Cup. The commentator was clearly English with a fairly nondescript English accent. His Spanish pronunciation of the players names was fine (I won't go on about the fact that the match was between two sides where the native language is Catalan). This was until Tyrhys Dolan came on. Then the commentator explained, in a broad Lancastrian accent, that Dolan had come to Espanyol from Blackburn. He then reverted to his nondescript accent. The contrast amused me.
Fingers crossed we don't get drawn against Boreham Wood in tomorrow's cup draw - they're making mugs of Newport and, at 3-0 up, playing rather well.
Funny how most did not have London accents... My favourite was the one London-accented lad, 39 seconds in,who clearly has a lot of chimpanzee in his DNA.
