Still on a high from yesterday and I would say it’s our best performance of the season.
I loved one particular moment, when, just after Ferdinand was booked, Wigan’s Powell, by the touchline, was giving it large to the East Greens. A gentleman of quite advanced years may I say, confronted Powell, verbally abused him and advanced to the gangway offering to take him on with his fists clenched. Both Powell and a nearby steward gestured toward him to calm down which he duly did. I don’t condone use of the ‘c’ word by anyone but I would imagine it would have been quite out of character for this gentleman but hey what passion and smiles all round afterwards. Classic.
Sorry folks and many many apologies from the gent of "advanced years" (cheeky bu**er I'm 63). Must confess the occasion got to me. Don't think my lad was too impressed! Was hoping that Powell would stay on the pitch to the end and perhaps come over and we'd shake hands but was not to be.
