He’s fast as fuck. He’s fast as fuuuuuuuck.
Yep, an oversight! Added now.
He swerves to the left,
He swerves to the right,
He’s Barry Bannan,
His driving is shite
Sad to say I’m not a regular at all anymore but in the glory days of BFR, Brian Little & John Gregory I remember a few favourites:
Earl Barrett – “Five foot eight, not much weight, Earl Barrett is fucking great”
The legend that is Shaun Teale – “He’s here, he’s there, he’s every-fucking-where Shaun Teale, Shaun Teale”
Mark Bosnich – “You put your right glove on, your left glove on, you play for Aston Villa and you’re number one. You do the Aussie Bozzie and you turn around, that’s what it’s all about”
God – “Yes, we have a friend in Jesus. Yes we have a friend in God. Yes we have a friend in Jesus. And his name is Paul McGrath”
I’m sure I’ve missed out some good ones but these are a few I remember. I have some great and happy memories including being at Anfield the first time everyone did the ‘Paul McGrath M’Lord’ song with the praying arm actions. That was was back in the day – around ’93 I think! Happy days!!
VillaGirl75 Many thanks for those! Will add the ones that were missing. UTV
Great to see this collection MOMS!
