When i was a teenager (over 40 years ago) a group of us were at a friends house when his dad came back from the pub, fairly hammered. He then proceeded to give this passionate, very left wing, speech which totally encapsulated us. Our reaction was to immediately drive to Tuddenham Road and paint the above on the bridge near the hockey place. It remained there for years, relatively untouched, and in it's incorrectly spelt format.

It was - it stayed there for much longer than expected. I had some photos of it somewhere - but long since lost. I wondered if anyone would remember it !
Mike Bassett half time team talk was pretty good, highly intellectual.
Also, it wasn't scripted, he was told to act how he thought a manager would say it. Great bit of Ricky Tomlinson just being himself. I don't think KcM speaks to the players like this.
