My next door neighbour here in Paranormal is a life long Wolves fan and S/T holder untill he retired to Cyprus. At the moment he is on holiday in the UK and will of course be going to watch his beloved Wolves take on the Mighty Gills on Saturday. He is such a good natured individual that I cant help but pull his leg sometimes. Before he left I told him about Gills playing in pink away from home. I said our Chairman had commissioned a report from the Consultant Trick Cyclist who designed the 'disturbing' colour coordinates for police interrogaton....sorry, interview suites and waiting areas. His brief was to come up with an away strip that would upset the home side the most. The shrink finally settled on the pink outfit on the following premise. Half the opposing team would be'uncomfortable' being chased around the field by big hairy men dressed in pink. The other half would find it amusing and laugh, thus losing concentration and becoming prone to a nutmeg or two! Of course he did not believe a word of what I said, including the fact that we play in pink. So if we do trot out on sat dressed in the pink kit, maybe he will start to believe the rest of my story after all.
OK, OK So we were subjected to a master class of skill and pace by the Wolves. However if my neighbour returns here being too cock a hoop, I shall have to play the 'M' card. i.e Morecombe!....and that was live on Sky! ps The Trick Cyclist now suggests we change our away strip to puce. It allows players to 'ghost' in un noticed at the far post apparently.
