WELL, I’ve had the chance to take the piss out of old Roy this week. The “Hodgecast” has gone down a storm such is the willingness to lay into Hodgson, erstwhile Liverpool manager and known fraud of this parish for some years. But, there’s a serious side to the damage...
“THESE things happen.” They do. They did. They happened in 2012. They happened in 2014. These things happen. They happened in Liverpool, Blackburn and Inter Milan. They happened, these things. They happen. The facts about these things, the things which happen, all the...
