2 pints deep, I look up from across the heaving bar and stood right in my gaze was a stalwart of my first ever ITFC team: David Linighan. It was too packed to do more than try to nod at him as he left a few minutes later, but it was definitely him.
Inflatables at football are sh1te. Please stop it lads. I don't want a rubbery lump to the mush when I'm trying to enjoy myself.
As for the game. I can't believe we won that. The second half was spent mostly shaking like a dog doing its business. How Blackburn didn't punish us I'm not sure. Morsy will dominate most games but I thought Luongo did some really good things today, had Leif not got an early booking for a robust challenge we might have been a little more fluid.
He breaks records not legs that boy. Lovely little footballer.
Felt massive that we got a goal from poor defending and early on. The crowd was turned pretty easily in the home end. The away end, different KFC gravy. Even when it was feeling a bit dodgy in the final moments, the drum was banging, the voices loud.
Omari really worked for my money, on and off the ball he seems to have his tail up right now and I think over the run in it'll really come to the fore. Al Hamadi by contrast did not have a good game. Doesn't matter but in a day of highs and lows it's important to note not everything went our way today.
Yet we're top when we walk out. Adrenaline and limbs all over the shop as Harry punches the air. What a feeling. Dribbling down the concourse out in front of the locals and travelling horde as we go home. |  |
