    Oh, it's all changed, isn't it?

    Marvelous.
    Not like old Alf Ramsey and his wingless wonders. Oh far cry from small boys in the park, jumpers for goalposts, rolling the ball in dogs muck and tossing it to your mate for a header....

    Marvelous.

    "narmeen" after every sentence
    When someone does that to you, turn the tables on them.

    Say "Actually no. I don't know what you mean."

    Watch them flounder and derail. Great fun.

    Grrrr Grrrr Grrrr
