Aye or Mrs Advocaat only wanted a fat retirement sum. Imagine the conversation:

Job's a good'n.

Oh Happy Days...possibly a song for the first Home game ??.Spoken in jest fella but imagine a smaller bet made of €1000 or summit. Quick fire quarter mill. Is Mrs Dick owt to do with Fifa?![]()
I stated this morning I thought he might come wish I had put bet onI saw those odds and thought to myself that those are bloody good odds, didn't cross my mind to put a bet on though! He was right at the bottom of the list. The likes of Alan Shearer etc were ahead of him!

I've seen him out to 100s Tel, couldn't tell you if they drifted further though
