AVB and the Spurs striker
AVB: Okay, this is what I want you to do. I want you to go out there and ghost into the channels and pressure their full-back, when you see our attacking player-maker shift towards the penalty area, swap with the left sided midfielder and attack the space directly in front of the attacking midfielder but look at the movement of the left sided midfielder if he attacks the same space as you, cut across the pen area and move at an angle towards the space just outside the six yard box. But not if the right-winger is occupying the same space. If he is, hold back on the edge of the box then move parallel to where the ball is travelling into the box from. Okay?
Spurs striker: <silence>
AVB: Okay?
Spurs striker: Whaaa?
AVB: F*****g run around a bit and kick the ball.
Spurs striker: Yes boss. Gotcha. The ball is the round thing that moves yeah?

Right. It`s me. Sorry everyoneI hold my hands up now.
Here`s a run down of my day. Got in from night shift and woke up after 3 hrs sleep in order to re-adjust to human existance.
Drove missus and her mates to the pub (leaving do taking in the football)
cooked tea for kids and sat down with auntie Stella to watch football.
Blah blah blah and Sweden score their second goal. England conspire to make Sweden 2012 look like 1970`s Brazil.
Power cut.
Power returns just in time for switch back from stadium to studio.
I kid you not that is genuinely what happened.
Regarding the missus - well she is hot and I`m doing an Ali Cook there - batting well above my average, so no probs.
But regarding the fact that I am clearly a footballing jinx, I will take my punishment like a man. Public stoning will do it. but on my terms.
Spooky - please book the venue.
Loanx - please sell the stones, large ones to women and children, pea shingle to strong looking young men.
4mullery - you`re the referee.
Just keep that wisky tom away as he`s clearly a nutter.
I don`t expect reply or reaction to this, I`m simply being self indulgant in front of audience here.
Reminding myself of someone,can`t quite think who though?
ha ha spooky. wtf gg is down? scara 's asleep on the job.
I for one would love to see AVB at WHL. Given a chance, I believe he could take the Spurs a lot farther than Harry...I think Harry was bumping against his ceiling, with down the only way to go. Really, finishing behind the gooners with this Spurs team?...underachiever.
