As regular readers will know, I’m not the world’s greatest football fan*, but I happened to be reading this article and was struck by a reference to the autobiography of Roy McDonough, the most sent-off man in British football history:
My favourite line? Probably when he asks his physio at Southend whether drinking 70 pints of Stella every week is suitable behaviour for a professional athlete...
Interestingly, Roy McDonough would have been in the same year as me at school.
* it has its place, but it shouldn’t be allowed to take over entire pubs.
